My Canon SD880 Review
This Canon SD880 hits all of the sweet spots for those wanting a powerful, small "point and shoot" camera with excellent speed and picture quality. What sets the SD880 apart from other cameras in this category is the wide angle lens. You can fit more into the picture especially group shots and landscapes. Also, because of the wide lens, you can zoom in on your shots without cutting off objects or people on the edges. Most other ultra compact cameras do not have this feature. I have used Canon's other wide angle compact - the SD870IS and loved it. This newer Canon SD880 adds many upgrades to that model: 10 megapixels, fast and powerful Digic 4 processor, motion detection, 4x optical zoom, intelligent contrast, self timer with face detection, and a smaller size for pocketability. Even though it is an excellent "point & shoot" it is also feature packed and can be adjusted manually with many different options and settings if you want.
Things to look for in any camera in the compact/ultra compact category:
The SD880 Has Everything Below!
- Picture quality, of course

I Love the SD880!
I have taken many great shots with this camera since I've had it and really couldn't wish for more. The Canon SD880 has got to be on anyone's short list when shopping for cameras in this category... Can you tell that I really, really like it?
