Manufacturer's Description

Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS ELPH Silver Digital Camera

The Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS Digital ELPH is a feature-rich, pocket-sized, Digital Camera with 8.0 megapixel resolution, a sharp and fast 3x optical zoom lens, and features Canon's advanced Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) system that significantly reduces the image-blurring effects, and helps users achieve the best possible picture quality even in low-light shooting conditions. The camera incorporates Canon's proprietary DIGIC III imaging processor that provides for the cameras' higher performance levels including faster start up, faster autofocus and quicker shutter response times. What's more, DIGIC III also improves both the image quality of the camera as well as its power consumption, thereby extending the battery life under typical shooting conditions.

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Very quick photo capture, very little shutter lag for a Digital Point and Shoot. Lots of extras in camera, like photo stitching which is very easy to use. Good battery life.

Weaknesses:I would like a bit more optical zoom. Not really a weakness as I knew that before purchasing the camera.

Overall Evaluation: We love it, recently we made the switch from Nikon, for both our D-SLR and Point and Shoot cameras, to Canon and we love both of them. We purchased a XSi 12.2MP with the lens kit, to replace our aging 35mm Nikon N90.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: small and nice-looking

Weaknesses:limited optical zoom

Overall Evaluation: I purchased this camera about two weeks ago to replace my large but high-quality old one. Compared with it, this camera is very convenient because of its small size. The quality of the photos are not bad. Of course, this sacrifices its optical zoom. In a word, it is a perfect camera for family use.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Size, picture quality, Easy to use, Image stabilizer

Weaknesses:Plastic Body, limited optical zoom, uses canon battery pack

Overall Evaluation: I believe that the Canon SD1100IS is a great camera. The shape and size of the camera is a huge plus. The camera is built like a rectangular box without any parts extending beyond that. The camera's size is also on par with many cell phones, which makes the 1100IS quite portable. The picture quality produced by this camera is astounding. It might cost more than your typical point and shoot camera but it compensates with impressive and consistent shots. Point and shoot wise this camera is an ace. The problems occur when you utilize the zoom feature. This camera has a limited 3x optical zoom. This limits the versatility for long range stuff. For most people this is not an issue since this is a consumer level camera. This camera is also the IS model which incorporates a image stablizer that helps create shots that are clearer. It gets the job done the first time and that is a big plus. The Canon SD1100IS's body is made of plastic, which makes the camera weak to physical abuse. Also the camera has a Canon specific battery pack. Overall I am very satisfied with this camera. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a point and shoot camera that is compact and easy to use.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: - Very compact- Stability control works great- Takes great pictures with no effort

Weaknesses:- Separate charger for battery

Overall Evaluation: Overall, I'm really impressed with this camera. I'm not a professional photographer by any means, but the pictures I'm taking are coming out great.When I was looking for a camera, I had two primary criteria:1. It had to be small and durable enough to carry around without me wanting to leave it at home because it was too big or fragile.2. It had to be able to consistently take good pictures without me changing a bunch of settings for each shot.The SD1100 hits home on both of those marks. It's very small and light, less than half the size of the old Canon S400 Digital Elph that I used to use. The build quality is great. You can toss this in your pants pocket without it becoming a nuisance or having to worry about it getting broken while you move around.One thing to note in particular is that the image stabilization feature is fantastic. I took a bunch of pictures during a helicopter tour of Hawaii last week, and as you can imagine a helicopter is not the most stable platform to take pictures from. My old camera without stabilization would have taken a ton of blurry pictures because I wouldn't have been able to hold it still long enough. The SD1100 worked like a charm and every one of my pictures came out clear. This feature alone will make the difference between good and bad pictures for the vast majority of amateurs like myself.On the down side, the camera comes with an external charger for its battery. While the charger itself is very compact (much smaller than the camera), it's still another thing to remember to take with you. It would have been nice to have just been able to charge the battery inside the camera via USB.

Review:

Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS Digital Camera

Sleek design, superb image capability and intuitive controls make the SD1100 a solid buy.

Like its Digital Elph predecessors, Canon's new PowerShot SD1100 IS looks and feels great. Its price tag of about $249 puts squarely in the realm of midrange point-and-shoots, but its robust features--including Canon's fast DIGIC III processor, a maximum aperture of f2.8, and outstanding image quality--allow it to compete with cameras that cost significantly more.
