 We absolutely love this camera!! July 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This camera is the best bang for the buck!! The screen is large and the picture crisp! The effects this thing can do are amazing! You would pay $500+ for some cameras that do these things. I can't believe what we got for what we paid for this. Definately worth it. Since we've gotten it a few weeks ago we have only charged the camera once (when we got it) and it is still going ang going!
fantabulous July 3, 2008
This was an amazing camera. I love it and bring it everywhere. It is easy to use and i am familiar with canon cameras, so it was an extremely delightful transition to this camera. The pictures are often "better than real life" according to a friend. I like quick pictures but i also like quality landscapes or close ups for enlargement. This works perfectly for both.
 Beware the "WATER DAMAGE" scam June 28, 2008
9 out of 10 found this review helpful
How many of us Canon "Water Damage" victims are there, I wonder?
Like another reviewer, I purchased the Canon SD850 IS several months ago and have used it regularly. It suddenly stopped working - the lens would not retract. I sent it to Canon for service under their one year warranty. They decided that it would not be "economically feasible" (exact words) to repair the camera and have sent it back to me still broken. Canon "customer care" says that the technicians found "water damage" even though the camera was never around water and worked fine up until the moment it stopped. They even suggested I might have spilled something into it (no way) or perhaps the water damage was caused by going from an air-conditioned environment into a warm humid environment. Ridiculous! Don't most people vacation in warm places? If a camera stops working because it is in warm and humid environment, the label on the camera should clearly state - stay away from nice places!
So it seems that if Canon decides they don't want to repair a camera under warranty, they can just claim "water damage" and they are off the hook. No recourse for the customer, no appeal process.
If you are looking for a $300.00 disposable camera, this is it!
 Great Camera, but... June 26, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you are looking for a camera with great features, look no further.
The price is actually reasonable for what you get. With the simple
click of a button, you have a beautiful detailed photo that captures
the moment and will last forever. The only reason I rated this with
4 stars was because of the size. It always aggravated me that I couldn't
put it in my pocket because it was too thick. Otherwise, I love this
camera, and if size isn't an issue for you, this camera is a fantastic
purchase!
Best point and shoot June 22, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the best point and shoot I have ever had. It takes great pictures and absolutely amazing macros. Nothing rivals this camera's macros in a point and shoot. The flash is far better than any camera I've used. The flash creates exact and correct lighting and color in absolute black. The extra settings make great creative pictures possible as well. Sure more settings would be nice, changing the f-stop would be great.
Overall this camera takes great pictures. In full light and outdoors, the pictures are always incredible. Inside, it's touchy, you usually need a flash otherwise you'll get blur. The lack of flash control makes it hard. At times in low light it will take too bright of a flash and overexpose your picture whiting out colors. It would be nice if they could have a setting for high/low/auto flash. There are new models out that are certainly somewhat better but this camera is very solid. It's also a great price for what you get. No other camera is as good for this price.
