Best VIDEO quality of compact cameras
I wanted a pocket camera that also took good video at 640x480. A friend of mine had the older SD1000 and I was particularly struck by the smoothness of the video. However, since that model was older, I tried the SD770 (since it was around the same price as the SD1100 and had more megapixels). What a disappointment! The video quality of the SD770 is far inferior to this camera, showing that "more megapixels" isn't always a good thing. Along the way, I have compared video quality of similar cameras by... more info
excellent P&S
Bought this for my 15 year old daughter to replace a DSC40 Sony. Start up time on the SD1100 Canon is amazingly quick. You turn it on and can almost start taking pics immediately. Its compact size lends itself to easy storage in anything a teenage girl carries. LCD screen is very clear even in bright sunlight. The automatic display orientation as the camera is turned is a welcome addition. At 8 MP, plenty of opportunity to cleanly enlarge selected portions of any image, which we did for a science project.... more info
Generally Pleased
Price and delivery were excellent. Based on early experience, the camera produces the expected, sharp images. Disappointingly, the camera display, in low light conditions, is very grainy -- noticeably more so than my older model Canon PowerShot. I called Canon technical support who told me that this is typical with this camera. Nonetheless, photographs taken in low light conditions remain sharp and clear.
first one was better
I recently purchased this camera for my wife who uses it for her work at the quilt guild. The image projected on the screen, on the back, is of very poor quality vs the last Cannon. You sometimes will see what looks like a faint green fuzzy line running from top to bottom on the screen. We also feel that the picture quality of the shots are not as sharp and clear as the last Cannon we purchased. I'll try another brand when this one quits working. It was a lot cheaper than the last Cannon we purchased in... more info
