Canon PowerShot SD700 IS / Ixus 800 review at dpinterface
Posted by Steve on June 13th, 2006
A review of the Canon PowerShot SD700 IS, also known as the Ixus 800, has been posted at dpinterface. The Canon PowerShot SD700 is an ultra compact digital 6 megapixel camera with a 4x optical zoom and a 2.5 inch display. The SD700 is also the first of Canon’s digital Elph cameras to offer image stabilization to counteract blurred photos and offers a high ISO sensitivity mode for shooting fast moving action or in low light situations.
The summary of the review:
“Overall performance for this stylish little camera was very good save for autofocus speeds. […] Featuring a 2 cm macro mode and 4x digital zoom to get in closer, the SD700 is a nice camera for macro shooting. In addition, the Canon SD700 has good image quality and low noise as well. Despite that, it has some problems as well such as some soft photos, low corner sharpness and worse overall image quality compared to the SD550. Finally, the SD700 has a nice stylish body but no manual controls, no live histogram and its buttons feel cheap.
So if you’ve read the entire review, you’d have noticed that the Canon PowerShot SD700 IS Digital ELPH is a great all round compact camera with a few minor bumps here and there. If you can live with the about average image quality and scarce controls, then the SD700 IS is for you.”
