    Duration of ownership: 6 Months

    Strengths: Pretty much everything--quick, takes good pictures, easy to use

    Weaknesses:The dial on the back pretty much broke after 4 months.

    Overall Evaluation: Nothing really to add--just be careful as the dial on the back that is important has stuck and is almost impossible to use now. Still under warranty, so will send back to manufacturer, but then we'll be without the camera. Canon's are normally built better than this. If not for this, which is incredibly annoying, would have been a great point and shoot.

    Strengths: Excellent Image QualityLots of Options

    Weaknesses:Average quality at high ISO (low light)A bit confusing to manage, complex interphase

    Overall Evaluation: I am no expert photographer at all, but I happen to distinguish between a good and a bad picture just like everyone else. I previously owned a Casio Exilim Z500, 5MP (drowned in a jacuzzi) which took very nice pictures too but had to be replaced. I bought a Nikon Coolpix 210 as a replacement but had to return it right after due to the extremely low quality of the images in all light settings. They appeared blurry and were out of focus.In contrast, the Powershot 880IS delivers cristal clear pictures, very good, vivid colors, and has a lot of options for the non experienced photographer. The pictures that you will see on Canon's webpage are a real representation of the camera pictures by any regular person. I would definitely recommend it.

    Strengths: High quality compact camera. Lots of features. Good image stabilization. Nice wide angle shots, decent zoom.

    Weaknesses:So-so flash. Can't go full manual. Poor picture quality at medium to high ISO settings.

    Overall Evaluation: I wanted to get a compact digital camera with lots of features that takes good pictures, and this camera delivers. It's a great vacation camera, as it fits in your pocket and takes excellent daytime outdoor shots. Dark or indoor shots are very good as well as long as your subject is relatively close to you. The flash is somewhat mediocre, so once you get out of its range, the quality goes down quick. But that's pretty typical of compacts in general. Also, noise is noticeable at ISO settings of 400 and up. This camera offers ISO up to 3200, but I wouldn't use anything above 400 due to the noise. The image stabilization works well, making shaky shots a thing of the past. I've found the face detection doesn't work a lot of the time, but when it does work, it will automatically remove red eye if you have that feature enabled. There are a ton of settings, which can be overwhelming for some. Unfortunately, you can't go full manual, thus limiting what you can do with the camera. But it does have a nice wide angle (28mm), and decent zoom. It also has macro mode, enabling nice super close-ups. It allows some in-camera editing such as cropping and red-eye removal. It is PictBridge compatible, so you can print directly to your compatible printer. All-in-all, a great little camera to carry around anywhere with you.
