It's a bait and switch. I thought I was buying a humorous health and nutrition book, but instead it was animal rights advocacy material. I have no problem with the animal rights movement, but the nature of this book should be made clear right from the start, on the front and back covers.

It comes with magic!
7/22/2008
This camera is absolutely outstanding, and quite possibly magical. The first few shots I took with this thing look like something out of National Geographic. You don't know me, but lets just say, prior to this camera my pictures look like they were taken while I was intoxicated on a moving boat. Yes, that's how bad they were, and no, I've never been drunk on a boat. Was it the worthless Konica Minolta I was using? Perhaps. But, I'm thinking magic has something to do with it instantly transforming me into a photographer. I've actually had people offer to BUY my photographs!! Me!!

The color is vibrant, with superb clarity and sharpness, plus fantastic depth, which I think can be the hardest thing to achieve in a photograph. The Macro settings are unreal, and the focus and lighting are exceptional without a flash. The battery life is really long, and the video quality looks better than my video camera, and even has better sound. The screen is really impressive.

For the most part- it's easy to use!! It did take me awhile to learn all the camera's functions and experiment with settings because it was significantly more complex than my old camera. I don't know what half the manual settings do, so I just stick with the settings in Auto mode- which has wonderful options. It works great. I love how this camera functions- and I am SOLD on Canon. My boyfriend had an older generation of this camera and his pictures were amazing, so I just went ahead and bought this without even holding it first.

I truly couldn't be happier with it, and I can't imagine anyone not absolutely loving it. Its tiny, but packs quite a punch!! I just wish it came with a case...

The best present ever!!!
7/17/2008
I searched for the BEST point and shoot out there for over a month! After reviewing all the reviews and recommendations...and after buying the wrong camera and returning it, I choose this awesome camera.

I bought the 12 mega pixel Kodak that is around 200 dollars before i started my research. BIG mistake. if its too good to be true it probably is. On some professional sites, kodak didn't even get a mention, and when it did it was always discribed as good "for the money". I didn't want good for the money, I wanted plain good...great.

So let me save everyone some time. Buy this one, it is the best, buy it on amazon because it runs $350 in all retail stores, I got mine for 300. I don't regret this camera even a little. For the extra 100 I spent on it, I got a whole different caliber of camera, it took a picture of my dog shaking off after a swim...and it didn't blur at all!

CANNON! There is no substitution....
7/10/2008
I just got my first Cannon today and I'm impressed with the technology which went into this camera. I did a lot of research on this camera before I bought it. Unlike the lousy SONY I owned before it. Cannon is the only brand of digital camera's that is consistently top rated for picture clarity. After having the Sony for 6 mos. I can really appreciate that characteristic. There is too many cool feature's about this product to list so you'll just have to read the spec's on it yourself.Canon PowerShot SD790IS 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom However, the feature's which stand out the most are the stitch assist and the computer-less printing abilities. The stitch assist allows you to bridge multiple picture's together to create a panoramic picture. You don't have to worry about lining the pic's up perfectly either, the camera automatically does it for you. Secondly, The picture bridging ( computer-less printing) allows you to crop, select multiple images for same page printing, select paper size and image size all from your camera. Face detection on this little gem is also pretty outstanding. While detecting a face, it magnifies just the face for your approval before you take that 10 mega-pixel work of art. So, before you waste money on any other brand, do your own research. You'll see, Cannon reign's supreme!

Impressed
7/9/2008
Now first things first. I am upgrading from a Sony p-72 3.2 mega pixel camera that I got back in 2003. So there are many cameras out there that would be a big step up.
I was only interested in a point and shoot and it had to be compact for traveling purposes. I would love a DSLR but they are pricey, bulky and did not fit my daily needs.

I started reading around for a month or so to see what was out there and read all the pros and cons. I have read so much that I finally grew sick of it. In its basic form, all point and shoot cameras have +'s and -'s. It all depends on features that are most important to you and how you will be using the camera.

After many reviews, forums, and websites I decided to go with the Canon 790IS. I was very apprehensive on the quality of picture this camera would provide due to manufacturers pushing the limitations of the sensor. The sweet spot for most point and shoots are 6-8MP.

So what drew me to this camera?
I was really impressed with the size, screen size, material that the camera was made out of (not cheap plastic), and most of the automated settings which make the camera very easy/quick .

I didn't want to have to mess with manual settings on a point and shoot. My impression of a point and shoot is it is ready to go when I need it. Maybe 5-10 seconds to change the macro but that is it. If I have to spend much more than that, great picture opportunities would be lost.

So I took the plunge and bought it here off of Amazon in addition to a 8 gig Sandisk ultra II for pictures and a spare battery.

I am not going to go into what the camera comes with as other people have done a great job with that already.

After three days of waiting, I got the camera.

I was quickly impressed on the startup speed of the camera and quality of the pictures. I took 150 in the first day. The battery is still going strong.

I also tried the higher ISO settings and they will only be good on a tripod. The 3200 iso macro that is in the camera is really good. It downgrades the 10 MP to 2ish but makes a really dark shot seem to be early evening. I used it many times and it worked great. Way better than what I am use to. You can do it manually but need to keep the camera stable or you will get a blur.

I have had the camera for almost a month and I am very pleased with it.
You can't go wrong with the Amazon price. It is 100$ lower than retail.
The camera is very well built and does an excellent job as a point and shoot. Even quick when using the flash. So again, you need to look at what you will use the camera for and what features are important to you. This one satisfied all of my requirements and I am very happy with my purchase.

As a side note:
I recommend getting a screen protector for the large screen. It will be easily scratched if you put in your pocket with change or other objects.
Just keep in mind you get what you pay for in screen protectors. Boxwave ones are highly rated and last forever. IT would suck to get a scratch across that beautiful 3inch screen.

compact & amazing

This small "Elph" creates high quality pix (10Mp), and the image stabilization makes using it almost idiot proof. Lots of features, but easy and effective in AUTO mode.
