Canon - PowerShot SD30 Digital Camera Review Summary

The Canon PowerShot SD30 has a great design, but consumer camera reviewers find that the SD30 doesn’t always deliver. Photos often turn out blurry or with an off color tint.

the powershot sd30 Canon Camera works very well when outside.To take inside action shots is a little bit more tricky..Some times the pictures come out kind of blurry but for the most part this is an all around good camera.It has many modes.The sounds quality is good,even when making a video.

First and formost the picture's sucked.A friend broke my Nikon coolpic and replaced it with this which cost a lot more and the picture where blurry.It looks cool though.Battery life was pretty good.The features where very cool also.But that still didn't make up for fuzzy shots

I bought this cammera because I wanted something small, desirably adorable, and one that would please my eye for the photographs. I got exactly what I bargained for! This little cammera is not only stylish and longlasting but takes excellent photo's!
