5 out of 5 stars Incredible Point & Shoot   June 20, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I would wholeheartedly recommend this product to anyone considering a point and shoot camera - this camera blows me away. The picture quality is awesome and is an excellent value for the money. I just recently upgraded to the Canon Rebel XSI SLR but I am keeping this camera for those times you don't want to drag your SLR outfit with you. I wish I could share the pictures I was able to take with this camera with you, but you could always do a search on Flickr.

Pros:
- As automatic or manual as you want it to be,
outstanding macros,
- Great color,
- Kids and Pets mode great for action shots,
- Size - easily fits in your pocket,
- Takes awesome video as well,
- Color accent mode is an awesome affect that takes forever to do manually in photo editing software,
- Battery life is great - lasted from open to close at Disney World, averaging over 200 photos and videos per day,
- Considering how small the camera is, the LCD is great

Cons: No battery meter - really, no other con!

4 out of 5 stars Great camera, have question   June 18, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Lots of helpful reviews on this camera. This one replaced my sd200. Just have one problem, maybe someone can shed some light on a cure. When playback a movie there is a timer bar at the bottom of the movie which does not go away when playback on the camera or when transferring to DVD. This occupies about 1/4th of the screen. Have tried everything to get rid of it. Called the company, they said it was part of the camera, seemed surprised at the question.

On stills I can't get rid rid of the date/time on playback on the bottom of the picture either.

Kudo's to the person who can shed light on this -



5 out of 5 stars Great Camera for Size, Quality and Price   June 16, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This camera is fantastic for those people who want to capture memories without spending a lot of money or lugging around a bulky camera bag. This fits perfectly into a moderate sized bag (or a larger one if you carry more than you need, like me).

The picture quality is great, especially for such a compact camera. I am not looking to take professional photos but I can appreciate the crisp resolution that's not so refined my pores show in my pictures.

I also purchased the leather carrying case for it, which I find easier to get the camera out than the zipper bags. You never know when one of those 'I need to have proof of this' moments will sneak up on you.



5 out of 5 stars SD-1000 is all I expected and MORE!   June 16, 2008

Product came quickly from Amazon's source. Start-up time is excellent and the digital delay is minimal - these were KEY FEATURES I was looking for, as capturing my son's events and spontaneous shots was my purpose for purchase. Face recognition works best in bright/outdoor shots - less well at a distance/evening shots, but the colors, especially skin tones captured, are exellent. The pictures appear a bit 'soft', though easily sharpened w/ PHOTOSHOP. THERE IS NO IMAGE STABILIZATION on this model, but I did not plan to use telephoto much - CONSIDER THE MORE EXPENSIVE IS Elph models if this will be an issue; because of the small size, movement artifact CAN BLUR your shots and this is magnified as you use the TELEPHOTO ZOOM (esp since you dont control the shutter speed - see comment below).

The video capture was a great suprise - unlike my old Olympus digital, the VGA resolution is excellent and the limit of video capture time is LIMITED BY YOUR SD-card memory ONLY. ONE exceptionally small device, fitting in my shirt pocket, is now both my primary camera and reliable video!!

I use my Canon XT Rebel for more controlled shots and for 'artistic' input, as MANUAL CONTROLS on the SD 1000 are very limited. In MANUAL MODE you can set the ISO, but not f-stop nor shutter speed. But for a reliable and QUICK/RESPONSIVE 'point and shoot' pocket camera/video, the SD 1000 meets and exceeds all expectations I had for an 'under $200' price tag [I got it around $168 with FREE DELIVERY thru Amazon].
