 Great shots! July 21, 2008
This camera takes incredible photos! It has an easy playback mode and gives crystal clear shots. One may have to use the manual when using the 'SCN' mode, but this is for advanced techniques when shooting at night, at the beach, etc. Also, the large screen on the back gives you a great view of your photos and the area you are shooting.
Anyway, I ditched my old camera for this one and haven't looked back!
Love It - Great Value! July 19, 2008
I was looking for a small point & shoot digital, and both my mother and my father own PowerShot cameras and have nothing but great things to say about them. I went back and forth between the SD870 and the SD850 and finally decided on the SD850 because it had the viewfinder. I don't use a viewfinder often, but it has come in handy in the past on my other digital camera.
I've been really happy with the SD850 - excellent pictures, easy to use for the most part, as I get used to where certain features and functions are in the menu. I got the camera and a few days later took it to Montana for a wedding. It was small enough to fit in my evening bag, yet powerful enough to take pretty good pictures of mountains. The zoom isn't huge, but for a compact camera, it's decent. The image stabilization worked well - I had fewer blurry pictures than with my larger Olympus that doesn't have image stabilization. And yes, I did use the viewfinder several times in the super bright sun.
I've used it since and was able to capture some amazing pictures of rainbows over the prairie, and some pretty wicked storm clouds in the Midwest, using normal AUTO settings without the flash.
Bottom line: A great camera at a great price. It's a good idea to get an extra battery, though mine lasted for about 200+ photos. (Don't listen to bogus online sellers who tell you it comes with a 20-minute battery and you must buy a spare in order to use the camera.)
my second 850 July 19, 2008
This is my second Canon 850 (my first one was accidently dropped into water) and I love it. The camera is so easy to use and fits in my pocket. I can carry it everywhere. The photos are fantastic.
Powershot is powerful and amazing July 18, 2008

With over 300 reviews for this product, I am not going to rehash on what over 300 had said. I bought this camera for my wife who's previous camera died. To put it mildly, her cousin accidently hit it with her elbow and knocked it onto the concrete pavement. Both the camera and the memory card died. That was a HP 735 (2.3 Megapixels). I priced around and as always, I check Amazon. (Sadly they charge tax now because the New York State legislature wanted their hands in the cookie jar (honeypot) and earn some revenue on the very popular Amazon.com.
This camera is amazing. It takes quick pictures, and the preview shows how great the pictures can be. The colors are rich and the face detection is right on. I found it funny that the camera was detecting the faces on the T.V. when we took it out of the box and was trying to learn about its many features. Another good plus for this camera is that it eliminates red eye. My wife loves to take pictures and she sighs when she develops her pictures and everyone on the pictures look like red-eyed vampires. Thats a thing of the past with this camera. The camera is a fast loader so be ready when you turn on the camera. It is very quiet and I was looking for the noise that many reviewers had written about. When we took pictures, it was quiet as though it had a silencer. Also many people had stated that it takes a long time for it to snap a shot. To us, it was quick and the shots were amazing. The options on the side of the camera (the dial- previewing pictures for example) and the power button as many people felt was a nuissance didn't bother us. Both are in good spots and our fingers never hit them accidentaly. The life of the battery was certainly longer than we thought. We had it on for a few hours and it was still running. Our former digital camera was a nightmare. After an hour it was already down to one bar. We didn't mind that the power meter wasn't present on the very sleek and sexy 2.5 LCD screen. I guess we were scared to look lol. Too many, i would think that the most important information on the viewscreen would be how many pictures you can take and their quality as well as the preview od the picture.
My wife is not a profesional photgrapher but she loves taking pictures. It ranges from sunsets to weddings. The pictures are outstanding and her family are amazed at how great the pictures look and come out. To us, there are no "cons" for this camera. We are delighted and anyone who likes taking pictures and is in need of a new camera, this is a fantastic one.
Amazon was terrific also. Right after I placed the order for this camera, the price went down and Amazon gave me a refund on the price difference. I also ordered it right before July 4th, so I did 2-day shipping (Ordered it on July 1st). To my amazement it actually arrived the next day. What other place can you order a product, click 2-day shipping, pay for 2-day shipping, and you end up getting it the next day. Not bad for overnight shipping and next day delivery. I was so shocked, we weren't even home when it arrived 9the first attempt). Even though Amazon has to charge tax in NYS, there prices are low, very helpful, and you get your merchandise much earlier than it says.
Excellent Value Camera July 15, 2008
The Canon PowerShot SD850 IS 8.0 MP Digital Elph Camera with 4x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom is a multi-featured camera far surpassing expectations for the price. Compact but powerful and the resulting photos are extremely sharp and color-true. The memory disc has too small a capacity, but that was easily remedied with the purchase of a more spacious disc on the aftermarket. Also, when purchasing this camera, I recommend that you purchase an accompanying travel case for it.
