This camera is easy to use, and has great results. Hooking
it up to the computer is easy, and printing pictures is too.
The battery never dies, and there are tons of options to fix
up your pictures how you like them |

| This is an awesome camera!!! I only wished that I had waited a few more weeks until the 12 MP camera came out. Oh well, technology changes too fast and only millionaires can stay trendy. |

 "too small and lightweight to avoid shacking" | 2008-05-11 |

| nice size but i wanted the high resolution so i can zoom in on photos afterwards. well because it's small and lightweight every picture i took was blurry because i apparently shake to much. i don't have a shake to my hand that i have ever noticed before and the camera i bought to replace it is fine. |

 "Junk, "Lens Error Problem is common, no fix, camera junked after this..."" | 2008-04-07 |

| Fell in love with this camera, used it for 2 years, then out of the blue, the lens would not retract and a message of "lens error, please restart camera" comes up, changing batteries did not fix it, nothing did. Looked on the Internet and found this is a common problem. |

| "Canon delivers a solid product packed with features" | 2008-03-02 |

I researched many digital cameras before deciding to get this model. I chose it because it had the high megapixels that I wanted and boasted many features and unique settings. I was not disappointed.
First of all, the camera offers sharp, high-quality images without using any of the fancy settings. The basic use of this camera meets my expectations.
The Color Accent feature is something that makes me feel like an artist as I compose images, and it is very easy to use (words which I will be using several times during this review!). The same effect can be done by hand with Photoshop or Gimp, but why worry about that high-end, expensive software when your camera does it for you?
The other feature that I am currently giddy about and excited to try on our upcoming vacation is the panorama feature and the accompanying software, StitchAssist. I had a camera that offered assistance lining up panoramic shots, but did not come with software to put those images together. The Canon SD 900 comes with StitchAssist, a program with imports the images taken with the panoramic setting on and then "stitches" them together. The program does all the work; all I had to do was tell it which images I wanted put together. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was.
Another minor setting I like is the touch button display. I have always had trouble operating the tiny buttons on my previous compact digital cameras, but the SD900 has a display that pops up when you press the round buttons to help you verify that you are pushing the correct button. No more trying to turn off the flash, but setting the macro instead!
One aspect that I am still learning is navigating the menus. The basic camera menus change very slightly depending on which settings you have enabled, and I am afraid that when I am "out in the field" away from my user guide, I won't be able to remember how to make the camera do what I want because I can't remember how to get to the menu. This is a necessary evil of a feature-packed camera, I fear. The menus are intuitive, though, so they have been fairly easy to learn. Not so with some cameras I have used.
I am not very pleased with the built-in sounds (I find almost all of them annoying), but you have the option of turning them completely off, as well as the option to set the volume of each type of sound individually, so I feel like Canon partially redeemed themselves for the less-than-pleasing-to-the-ear audio they offered.
One sound I am glad Canon included was one that signals the timer is about to go off. Again, no sounds that don't make your heart race, but at least we can all tell when that group shot is going to snap.
I strongly recommend this camera if you are looking for a small camera packed with easy to use features. |

| I bought this camera in Sept 2007 and absolutely love it. Over the xmas holidays it was stolen with every single vacation shot on it... I was very upset. The thing I love about this is the speed the pics take (very quick for a digi cam) and the amazing low light photos with the ISO1600 setting on. You will not be disappointed with this cam. I will be buying it again to replace the one that was stolen. |

| I bought this camera to replace my SD400 (great camera too!!) and I found a lot of great features, such as multi face recognition, the AE is improved too. 10mp seems to be too much for such light sensor size, but it worth when you use the digital zoom, the image is nearly without visible pixels even at full 12X zoom!!. Great pictures make the camera worth the money. 5 starts without any doubt. |
