Canon - PowerShot SD 850 IS Digital Camera — 

My Canon SD850 compact digital camera has all I need in a small digital camera! I have a digital Nikon SD40 digital camera, and my Canon takes as good of pictures as the Nikon in nearly all situations. I can adjust the ISO, take pictures with or without flash, take multiple pictures one right after the other and take short movies as well. There are three settings: Superfine, Fine, and Normal as well as a macro setting that takes great close-ups of flowers, bugs - you name it. It has a self-timer so if I want to take a picture of a group, I can set it and get into the picture too. You can go totally manual with it, or you can use the automatic setting for everything. On the scene setting, you have choices of portrait, night, kids and pets, indoor, creative light effect, foliage, snow, beach, fireworks, aquarium, and underwater, thought I must admit, I tend to just let the camera do its thing on auto mode. You can adjust exposure as well in a manual setting. My camera has a viewer, and my only complaint with it is the size, but I knew that when bought the camera. I love the compactness of this camera as well as the photos it produces. People often think I used my larger digital camera.
