Canon - PowerShot SD800 IS / IXUS 850 IS Digital Camera Review

I got this camera (Canon SD800 IS) on sale for just about $200 a year ago.  It was the best point-and-shoot camera I've ever own.  This camera takes pictures just as good as my $1500 DSLR Canon.  About the only complain I have is the limited zoom (3x).  But other than that, this camera has exceed all my expectations.  The pictures come out clear and crisp.  Even the LCD images look nice.  It takes great pictures whether it's indoor or outdoor.  The flash is adaquate for almost all occasions (except maybe when you're like 30 feet away with little or no light).  This camera focuses fairly quick.  I like the green focus square as well.  It's light yet has a solid build feeling to it.  The battery last a long time and can be charged in less than 2 hours (when empty).  Red-eyed reduction works great.  The many shoot-modes work as designed.  I took many great pictures of my daughter's basketball games.  Sometime, it even took better pictures than my $1500 DSLR.  Honestly, I don't even bother to bring my humongous $1500 DSLR to my daughter's games anymore.  I prefer to use this camera instead (even with the limited 3x zoom).  On top of all this, this camera is so easy to use.  Great for beginner or casual pictures taking.  What else can I say, I love this camera.  You won't regret it.
