I have owned many Canon products over the years,but this one tops it all. 10 mp with a 3" screen display with an image stabilizer,and precision manufactured in Japan.all for about $200.Great camera.

I bought this camera specifically for a cruise I'm taking my family on. I bought it with the Canon WP-DC24 waterproof housing for scuba diving. The camera is very thin and light-weight, but loaded with so many features, I'll never use them all. The 3" LCD screen is HUGE and easy on older eyes for setting up your shots. The 10mp images are great to begin with, but this camera allows you to alter the image and colors in a multitude of ways. My kids like the black and white images with just one color isolated in the photo - really trick. You can slip this camera in a back pocket, ready for any situation. It's built like a chunk of stainless steel - definitely Canon quality. Can't wait to take it underwater!


5 out of 5 stars Great so far   October 13, 2008

I spent a lot of time researching the canon cameras before making my selection. (I had a canon camera that I loved a few years ago until it stopped turning on... then I switched to a Sony cybershot and was NOT satisfied, so I wanted to go back to Canon). I've had the camera for about a week.. so far it's been taking great pictures. I've been taking the same shot (on auto) with the Sony and the Canon to compare the pictture quality. The Canon has been getting the shots a million times better than the Sony. (Some of the pictures on the Sony just came out either all black or all white).
The Canon has been also doing a great job of using the flash appropriately on auto mode... I also like that it's been taking clear pictures even if the subject is moving.
Some of the pictures I took on high ISO did come out focused but grainy... but I'd rather have a grainy picture than a completely blurred or unrecognizable picture like I had with the Sony!!
It took a couple days to get used to the controls... the turn wheel does take a little bit of time to get used to the sensitivity, but I feel much more comfortable with it now. There are plenty of modes and options in the manual mode if you want control over your pictures.. but I have to say, so far I've been very impressed with the auto setting. The "kids and pets" setting has been also impressive to catch moving subjects without blur!

I was looking for a reliable camera to take good pictures even indoors and with moving subjects... So far so good!!

I've had this camera (Canon Power Shot SD790) about a month now and just want to say that I love it! It takes great pics and is easy to use. I like the size of it and how it looks (which I didn't expect to like)... nice and comfortable to hold, easy to take in a pocket or purse. I've had no problem with the wheel on the back ... I still have to study what all of the features/icons are used for yet, so at this time, I am not using it to its full potential. Uploading the pictures to the computer is easy. Takes good pics and of course I LOVE the size of the viewfinder!

As a user of many of Canon's cameras and camcorders, I have been very satisfied with every one I bought. This is a great camera and Canon continues to improve there lines with each new released camera. I installed a 16 gb card so I can take numerous photos and many movie clips. Anyone looking for a camera like this should have no problem with of Canon SD line of camera, The few nay sayer's in there reviews indicated a lack of understanding or they just like to complain. I highly recommend this camera
