4 Star Rating  "Looks Good"2009-11-18
- Reviewed By User: A1G237TZRR0M6
I bought this as a Christmas present for my husband, so he has not yet used it. It looked good and it small and compact which is what he wanted.
 
5 Star Rating  "Low-light amazingness. BUY THIS CAMERA."2009-11-10
- Reviewed By kirbyko3
I originally bought this little beauty because I needed a tiny camera to drop into my pocket when I didn't feel like lugging the SLR around with me while on a vacation. The size is perfect: literally the size of a credit card, fits into jeans or shirt pocket easily. But the REAL awesomeness of this camera? It has a 3200 ISO mode, that takes surprisingly excellent photos. On a recent trip to Italy, I was able to use it unnoticed in dimly-lit churches, museums, etc., and even for hand-held night shots on the street. The images do contain some noise, as any would at ISO 3200 -- but this camera allowed me to get pictures that I otherwise would've missed, and that makes it a little miracle in my opinion.
 
3 Star Rating  "Same old Canon P&S"2009-11-06
- Reviewed By blatantimage
In the last 5 years I have had a handful of these Canon point and Shoots at my disposal- this one is not much different than the previous iterations, despite the marketing gizmos and the public's uneducated craving for more pixels. Granted, it's still a 'good' camera. Just not much new from any other Canon PowerShot.
HD video? not like this is a crazy 'advanced' feature on a sensor that can see quadruple the HD format. It's a marketing trade name- believe it. And people wowed by the HDMI output are oblivious that this is CHEAPER to engineer- digital ~ digital. It has nothing to do with Quality and nor does amping it up to 12 MP.

Comparing my Powershot of 3 years ago- I tested the shutter delay between shots (yes, a half press pre, we are talking write time- black display) Both are the same. I could care less about the useless face recognition, I just want to recoup for the next shot FASTER. Come on, I know you can do this canon.

What drives me nuts is how Canon likes to completely revamp the menu placement. One model has the P (program) then others have M (Manual) and then some have both. Some have a time lapse function buried in the M, others have it as part of the "Movie" function. What I like about a company is stick-tuitiveness and consistency- these wishy-washy marketing product managers are living in a haze.

Another irk with P&S's in general is the on-camera flash. Nikon at one time had function to +/- the flash fill- Canon, not so much. It's always overblown- if you compensate -1 or -2 it loses everything else. I always tape a piece of 1/2 spun over the flash, helps a little.

If you want a reliable P&S and you DONT want to THINK- this might be ok for general use. Thats who it's made for. The average person- not a photographer who wants to get creative. But that's obvious. Right?
 
4 Star Rating  "Super Compact with great features!"2009-11-04
- Reviewed By User: A2GC2ZB9ALT0Y6
I researched forever after my canon sd450 died. As a DSLR user, I was not looking for a camera to take award winning shots. Instead, I wanted (in this order) :
1) Super Ultra Compact
2) HD Video
3) Decent picture quality for 4x6 and 5x7 prints

I feel that this camera fits all of these needs perfectly. It is TINY. I agonized between this model and the sd780. The sd780is is apparently even thinner than this one and includes HD-movie-mode but I ultimately decided to pick the 940is because of its better optical zoom and the wider angle. I believe they are both about the same dimensions except for depth. I can't imagine it being any thinner though so don't let that make your decision.

The picture quality goes from great to decent depending on lighting.

You will love this camera if you are looking for ultimate portability!
 
5 Star Rating  "Great camera"2009-11-01
- Reviewed By User: A1KRCUBQ6374DI
Great camera. I got it after much research because I wanted to get the smallest high quality P & S. I'm an advanced amateur with two DSLR's but needed a small P & S for the wife to use and for me to carry when I wanted something really, really small.
The SD940IS is truly small but delivers very high quality photos.
The only quibbles I have are that the menus take some getting used to and the buttons on the back are so small that they require me to use my fingernail rather than my finger to operate them.
Other than that, it's a great little camera and I'm glad I bought it.
 
4 Star Rating  "Great camera over priced"2009-10-22
- Reviewed By User: A2JU5ABGSU2B24
This is my first pocket camera. I am very pleased with the size (that is why the expensive price tag), I like the ease, the ability to turn off the sound, the less lag time, the quick response. I only have 2 batteries, will need to purchase more. I am currently getting about 2 hours per battery as it is in continual use with photos of cemetery headstones (genealogy).
The camera was recently pruchased and the ease of use is great! My favorite feature is the low light without flash. This is my reason for choosing this model. Thanks to previously read reviews.
Yes, I would purchase the camera again for this purpose.
