Pros: Attractive, great photots

Cons: Battery life

The Bottom Line: A great purchase, esp. since this model is now being clearanced out.

Review: The Canon PowerShot SD1000 Digital Camera is a great product. It is a very attractive, chic, lightweight and compact camera. Most importantly, the photos are of great quality (good color and detail). The screen is both large and durable. This camera was ...

Cons: Noticeable chromatic aberration, higher than expected noise, image quality is not as good.

The Bottom Line: This camera is great to carry in your shirt pocket. Nice looking, easy to use, and reasonably fast. Still, if you want excellent quality pictures go for a bigger model.

Review: I have been an enthusiast of digital cameras since they appeared in the market. I personally owned several Canon cameras including the A50, A40, A60, A520, and now the SD1000. I still have the A50, and the A520, but wanted something portable to actually ...

Pros: Compact, strong construction, cheap, quick, little lag, uses cheap SD cards.

Cons: Dust Halo problems with flash photography, no battery indicator.

The Bottom Line: Great deal for a solid compact camera. Hunderds less than when it first came out 1 1/2 ago.

Review: Great little camera at a great price as they are clearing them to make way for the new SD1100 which will cost $100+ more. Is it worth it? Some current reviews say no. The new model does have image stabilization but for this camera probably not really ...

Pros: Movie quality, vivid color performance in stills, ease of use, battery life

Cons: Zoom, low-light performance sans flash.

The Bottom Line: Get it if you want an easy-to-use, feature-rich camera that takes great pictures and movies and don't mind a limited zoom potential.

Review: I got this from my niece, who took very good care of it. I had a bit of trepidation about it, but since it was Canon, a company known for imaging, I took a bit of a chance. I'm very impressed with the quality of stills one can take with this camera ...

Pros: Price, picture quality, durability

Cons: shutter could be faster. Digital zoom does not make for the best pictures.

The Bottom Line: Great name, great quality, great price.

Review: I needed a highly portable digital camera to substitute for my larger Canon dSLR. I didn't need anything fancy, anything expensive, nor did I need the latest technology. I wanted a great picture, durability and price. I found the PowerShot SD1000. For ...

Pros: perfect size great battery life

Cons: so many options haven't seen them all

The Bottom Line: Definatley recommend it, it's easy to use and small!

Review: The past two cameras I have owned have been Kodak. I had my last Kodak for only a year and it broke and they wanted over $100 to fix it, which was crazy. So, I asked for a camera for Christmas. I did my research and decided on this one as it has ...

Pros: Very small size, durable metal body. Fast startup and focus.

Cons: It lacks image stabilization.

The Bottom Line: Small, very nice camera that easy to carry anywhere.

Review: I've had the Canon SD1000 for about four months now, and I carry it with me almost all the time. The camera is tiny, smaller than a deck of cards, and the case is matte finished metal that stands up well to wear. The small size makes it easy to stash ...

Pros: Compact, easy to use, long battery life per charge.

Cons: Sometimes photos have slight fish-eye quality, does not fire rapid succession.

The Bottom Line: A good overall camera for nice photos, easy to use, and not too expensive.

Review: This camera would be a nice first camera for someone switching from SLR manual, film camera or a responsible teen who has some experience with cameras. The Power Shot replaces another larger digital Power Shot Cannon which got run over by an adjustable ...

Pros: compact, easy, decent tools

Cons: short battery life, sub-par zoom

Review: This camera works great for basic usage. It's compact and portable. It's easy to use - perfect for point and shoot photography. The battery life is short, so I always carry 1-2 spare batteries with me. The zoom is not stellar, which is expected. I ...
