Canon PowerShot SD850 IS Review

July 12th, 2007

Canon-Ixus-950-Is-Sd850 When shooting outdoors, the SD850 captures beautiful images that with good exposure and rich colors. Images are also sharp, however I did notice a bit of edge softness present along the left hand side of the frame. Image noise is average for a consumer model, just remember it will become more noticeable in your photos as you increase the sensitivity. Image quality was what I expected from a Canon model, excellent. … we have loved Canon’s Digital ELPH’s since the debut of the S100 back in 2000. And, the SD850 continues their tradition of stylish and durable cameras that capture great photos with fast performance and loads of appealing features (optical IS, 8-megapixels, 2.5-inch LCD, etc.) With 8-megapixel of resolution, the printing possibilities are almost endless, from tightly cropped 4×6s to huge poster size prints! With and MSRP of US$399 or less, it may seem a but more expensive than many other 8- megapixel modes, however, I feel it offers an outstanding value for such a versatile pocket-rocket.”
