This review is from: Canon Powershot SD200 3.2MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical ZoomCanon's newer, higher end SD models (SD200/SD300) are fantastic little cameras for point-n-shooters like myself.What's new compared to SD110/S410/S500:-2.0" LCD as opposed to 1.5" on other canon models-Low-light focus system dramatically improved over previous canon ultracompacts-Built in scene modes, making it much easier for those illiterate in manual functions (white balance? huh?) to get better looking pictures.Pros (aside from new features mentioned above):-Canon's image sensor is consistently one of the (if not THE) best when it comes to ultracompact digital cameras. Compare pictures taken by a Canon ultracompact to any other brand of ultracompact at the same resolution and the difference is remarkable.-All metal body feels sturdy.-Controls are mapped very efficiently (zoom and shutter operatable with one hand). Menus can be navigated easily.-Numerous shooting options are enough to satisfy amateur photographers as well as snapshooters. Auto-mode is efficient and usually does a good job.-About 2/3 the thickness of the S-series of Canon cameras, which are already about the size of a pack of cigarettes.-3.2 Megapixel sensor is exactly enough for snapshooters, which ultimately makes this camera cost far less.-Automatic lens cover prevents dust, etc., from marring lens.-Canon switched from Compact Flash memory to SD memory, which reads and writes much faster.-Fast start-up time (although not as fast as Casio's Exilim line).-Sleek design makes the camera a fashion statement. You can and WILL get "oooh"s and "ahhh"s from people when you pull this thing out.Cons:-Canon switched from Compact Flash memory to SD memory, which costs more.-3.2 megapixel resolution, while enough to print 5x7s, usually isn't enough to print 8x10 images with anything resembling decent resolution. Luckily, 90% of home users will never need more.-This camera is clearly not for anyone other than casual snapshooters: lacking in the manual functions more experienced photographers demand.-No RAW file mode for experienced digital photographers.-Basically, experienced photographers will hate this camera. But thankfully, it's not geared toward them, but rather at home-users. If you are an experienced photographer, don't look at ultra compact snapshooter cameras. Go for digital SLR cameras, like Canon's EOS or Digital Rebel series'....
This review is from: Canon Powershot SD200 3.2MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical ZoomI've had this camera for over a year now and couldn't be happier with it. Obviously it's very small, which works out great for those that travel a lot or generally like taking a camera wherever they go. Picture quality isn't amazing, but very good. And at 3.2MP, there's enough resolution to print out an 8x10 photo...why would you need anything bigger? I purchased the underwater camera case accesory. It's a bit pricey (around $100), but well worth it for the money if you know you're going to use it a lot. I took it to Florida during vacation and took hundreds of photos that turned out brilliant. I HIGHLY recommend using the "underwater" setting available. I took a few without it just to see the difference. They were very blue-saturated. The "underwater" setting eliminated all of that, leaving a clear image. With the attached strap, it wasn't a hassle to carry around either, even underwater. We did lots of snorkling (sp?) and diving with no problems. On the con side: - There's no battery life indicator! The only time you know the state of the battery is when it's very low. - The lcd scratches easily, but that's to be expected. I haven't had any problems with the case itself scratching. - The included SD card won't hold that many photos. Just spend the extra money and get more memory. They're fairly cheap these days. I bought the 256mb, and it holds plenty (hundreds).Overall, great camera for the price, size, and ease of use. I did a lot of research on compact cameras before I bought, and this one has met all my expectations....
This review is from: Canon Powershot SD200 3.2MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical ZoomThis is one of the best point-and-shoot 3 megapixel cameras currently being produced. As with all Canon PowerShot SD series cameras, the SD200 is very easy to use. Canon also makes a 4 megapixel version of this camera (PowerShot SD300) which costs about $100 more.What makes this camera DESIRABLE: (1) Takes ...
