Canon PowerShot SD880 IS Review
The Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is a wonderful sleek and slim compact camera. The camera’s focal point is all about the power of the image, and its 10.0 megapixels is a testament to that. A 4x optical zoom will allow you to get right in close and capture the pure essence of the image. On the flipside a 28mm wide angle lens will let you capture everything around you. The 3-inch LCD monitor is a big screen for you to frame your shots with. The monitor also has a fabulous lighting system and is easy to view at any light level.
Canon has upgraded from the DIGIC 3 processor to the DIGIC 4 processor putting themselves ahead of the competition. This new chip, among many other things, can remove blur from your pictures by minimalizing camera shake at high ISO levels. Also new is the i-Contrast system that will lighten and darken needed areas without compromising the rest of the picture. Another new impressive feature on the Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is the face self-timer. The camera will automatically realize when another face enters the frame. When a stoppage of motion occurs the camera will make its necessary adjustments, so you can take your time to get into the picture. With improved face and motion detection it is easier than ever to be the photographer and be in the picture.
The Canon PowerShot SD880 also has a plethora of special scene modes that scale the spectrum of all types of situations. It may be a gorgeous sunset descending over the mountains, glistening powder you are skiing over, a bright warm day at the beach with your friends, or the brilliant bursting of fireworks – this camera has a mode for it. You don’t want to forget beautiful experiences like those, and you don’t have to. Direct printing is simple with this camera’s print/share button. If you want more creative control then the camera can be plugged into your computer with a USB cable. As mentioned before the camera’s focal point is all about the power of the image, and it is just that.
