Canon PowerShot SD630 review at DP Interface
Posted by Steve on May 13th, 2006
A review of the Canon PowerShot SD630 digital camera, also known as the Ixus 65, is available at DP Interface. The Canon PowerShot SD630 offers 6 megapixel resolution, a 3x optical zoom and a very large 3 inch LCD display in an ultra compact body. The LCD display has a wide viewing angle and a brightness boost function for easy viewing in low light situations.
Some of the review results:
“As for image quality, the SD630 is one of the best ultra-compacts which produces sharp natural-looking photos with little noise. I’m glad Canon added a low noise ISO 800 option since more cameras are having this. Pair that with unlimited 2 FPS continuous shooting and we’re getting somewhere! […]
What’s hot:
* Fairly powerful flash
* Large visible LCD
* Fast, unlimited continuous shooting
* Excellent movie mode
* Improved user interface
* My Colors post-processing can be done in playback
* Good high ISO performance (some post-processing may be required, though)
* Very good photo quality
What’s not:
* Battery life is below average
* No manual controls
* LCD is not that sharp
* Red-eye
* Large movie file sizes and cannot optical zoom or focus when recording
* Fairly high noise at ISO 800 (countered by post-processing)
* Startup and autofocus needs to be faster
