Customer Reviews:
Canon SD870IS is all it was touted to be, 2009-01-06 I did extensive research on "point-and-shoot" digital cameras before making a decision and have not been disappointed with my purchase of the Canon SD870IS. It's always challenging when doing product research online to separate what is important to you from the "expert" reviews (they complain about little things I would never notice and get excited about things - like color choices - which are meaningless to me.) And individuals' reviews are sometimes too simplistic and lacking substance or so extreme you wonder if they are biased for some reason other than the product itself. So I will try to keep it simple and factual ...
Size and weight of the camera are great ... will easily fit in most shirt pockets.
Have not had to recharge the battery yet after taking somewhere around 250 photos, most with flashes.
Photo quality is good and image stabilization does help - but you still need to try to hold it still.
I was very impressed with the quality of the video it shot (though this was unimportant in my purchasing decision) - nice to have!
Powers up and is ready to shoot quickly and can take multiple pictures fairly fast for a digital.
Quality and viewability of digital viewfinder is good, even in bright sunlight - surprisingly, I am not missing an optical viewfinder.
Very reasonably priced - only $240 in Dec 08.
I would highly recommend this camera to the "average Joe" like myself who wanted a good quality camera but didn't want to spend a lot.
Enjoy!
