Read Full ReviewReview summary: The Canon Powershot SD870 IS is one of those rare ultra-compact cameras with a wide-angle lens, actually Canon only makes one other camera with a wide-angle lens, the ultra-compact . Some aspects of the SD870's performance are quite good.
Pros: Nicely saturated colors, Generally quite accurate white-balance, Reliable metering system, Low purple fringing, Good image sharpness away from corners, Wide-angle lens in ultra-compact body, Solid construction, Much faster than the average ultra-compact,
Cons: Noticeable vingetting, Destructive noise above ISO 400 in good light, above 200 in low-light, Nearly useless ISO 1600, Moderate corner softness, Slight color-cost under artificial lighting, Dynamic range a little below average, Some barrel distortion, No
Read Full ReviewPros: Great build, image quality as lower ISOs, responsive, easy to use, good metering and colour, nice lens focal range
Cons: Reduced detail due to noise reduction processing, Intrusive noise at higher ISOs, white balance issues in mixed lighting, screen marks easily
Verdict: While it looks very nice, the entry price is higher than that of its predecessor and, mysteriously, there are a few things missing from the new model
