Canon Powershot SD870 IS Review

Comments:
I became almost uncontrollably depressed watching Maria Sharapova's early exit from the US Open, but one thing relieved my anguish: they continued to run her Canon PowerShot commercial throughout the rest of the tournament. Why did this assuage my sorrow?

Review : Canon Ixus 860IS

Comments:
This is the latest in the excellent Ixus digital camera range, in August 2006 the Ixus 700 won the rarely awarded 5x5 award. Does this latest offering live up to this rarely awarded accolade.

Review Verdict: For those wanting to progress there are no less than 17 shooting modes to help you get the correct effects. My colours also helps as this can be applied either before or after shooting

Product Rating: 3.75 star(s) Canon Powershot SD870 IS Review

Comments:
The Canon Powershot SD870 IS is one of those rare ultra-compact cameras with a wide-angle lens, actually Canon only makes one other camera with a wide-angle lens, the ultra-compact . Some aspects of the SD870's performance are quite good.

Comments:
In these respects the 860IS / SD870 IS is undoubtedly one of the best compacts we've tested, but this degree of quality and performance doesn't come cheap. Canon cameras can be heavily discounted, but in terms of official RRPs, the 860IS / SD870 IS comes

Review Verdict: The Canon Ixus 860IS / PowerShot SD870 IS has a lot going for it. The great build quality, large screen, quick response, wide angle coverage and respectable quality will be sufficient to sell it to many people.

First look: Canon Digital Ixus 860IS digital camera | Absolute Gadget

Comments:
Canon wheeled out a whole bunch of new products today and we got a taster test of quite a few of them. First up was the Canon Digital Ixus 860IS. Despite packing in a 28mm zoom lens, this is a beautiful little model.

Review Verdict: Even the model being displayed in Canon's official waterproof case was a doddle to get to grips with. The raised buttons on the plastic chassis (good for up to 130ft) are well thought out for easy underwater use and they all come with logos or text next t

Comments:
Wide is the operative word for the $350 Canon PowerShot SD870 IS Digital Elph--not for the camera's overall size, but for its alluringly large 3-inch LCD and for its wide-angle zoom, which starts at 28mm (35mm equivalent), a focal length to warm the heart

Review Verdict: It's pricey, but the extra-wide-angle lens, the big LCD, and the well-thought-out exposure control system make this an attractive compact camera

QuickTake:

Pros: Extra-wide zoom lens Big LCD (3 inches)
Cons: Not as well constructed as other Elphs Animated on-screen button is distracting

Hands-on Reviews: Canon PowerShot SD870 IS Digital ELPH
