This is the Digital ELPH that's raising the bar. There's everything you'd expect from a camera of this caliber: A 7.1 megapixel CCD to render images in magnificent detail and a DIGIC III Image Processor for stellar quality and fast operation. Yet what sets the SD800 IS Digital ELPH apart is its Wide-angle 3.8x optical zoom with Image Stabilizer technology for rock steady zooms. The Canon SD800 IS Digital ELPH, it's the Digital ELPH that's a step ahead.

5 out of 5 stars Couldn't ask for more.   September 10, 2008

I purchased this camera about 18 months ago, and couldn't be more thrilled with it! It is compact enough to be carried in a purse or pocket, and the battery life is incredible - I've only had to battery 5 times since purchase, with very regular use. The image quality is great, and in some cases is actually better than my Canon XTi DSLR camera when it comes to low-light or candid and uncomposed shots.

The SD800 is by far the best point-and-shoot camera I have ever come across, and has made me a loyal Canon customer for life. Highly recommended!

I have been using this camera for a year and a half and I haven't had any problems with it. I love it and I carry it in my purse every day just in case I find random things to take pictures of. It was hard for me to choose which camera model I wanted but I am so happy that I chose this one! The image stabilization works great and the zoom is good for the small size camera that it is. The face recognition is also pretty neat.


5 out of 5 stars excellent camera, sd870 is the updated version (not sd850)   August 15, 2008

This is (was) an excellent camera, if what you want is a pocket-able point-and-shoot camera. Very versatile, easy to use, excellent pictures every time.

Contrary to what Amazon says, the SD870 IS is the new model equivalent to this one. And it's available at a pretty good price right here. (I just got that one, but haven't used it enough to review yet. Check other websites for professional reviews, e.g., cnet.com.)
