| | Tech Reviews |  | Canon Powershot SD850 IS Review DigitalCameraReview.com Published on: 6/20/2007 3:25 PM | | When the Canon Powershot SD850 IS arrived for this review, I presumed it was a follow-on or variant to the SD800 IS. However, it's actually the successor to the Powershot SD700 IS, since the SD700 IS has the older DIGIC II processor and they both have a 35-140mm (equivalent) focal length. The SD800 IS has a wider angle lens (28-105mm equivalent), so is a slightly different place in the market (at least according to Canon) than this SD850 IS model....read the full review |

5 of 5 First digital camera Monday, March 24, 2008
A Customer from Jackson, WY
This is the first digital camera I have ever owned and I am very happy with it. It has good zoom, starts up quickly and takes high quality pictures. I especially like the different modes you can take pics in. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 Almost perfect Thursday, February 21, 2008
M. Hunt from Intercourse, PA
I purchased this as a replacement for my Canon Powershot S400, a solid camera that served me well for the last 5 years. Overall, the 850 is an improvement. I'd consider it perfect except for one major flaw, described below.
Pros:
1. The Image Stabilization feature truly works. I have not taken a blurry photo yet, whereas blur was a frequent problem with my S400.
2. Solid build quality.
3. Intuitive to use.
4. Good image quality, though you will likely only need the full 8MP if planning to enlarge above 8x10.
Cons:
1. White skies are a frequent problem - this is a common issue for compact digitals, but I've been frustrated by the 850's tendency to capture the sky as pure-white even on blue-sky days. This was less of a problem with the S400. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 A no brainer Saturday, February 16, 2008
A Customer from NY, NY
Simple to use! Took it out of the box, charged the battery, point and snap. I did change the resolution to HQ and the photos were sharp and true to color when printed. I would higly recommend this camera. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 the best compact camera Wednesday, January 30, 2008
Hardy from Rutherford, NJ
This is the best camera I ever had. The picture quality is really good, no regret to buy it.
Before I bought this camera, I did compare with sony, especially sony cybershot T70,the result is canon SD850 far superior than sony, and one thing I really like is easy to use, it is not as complicated as sony. I love to take a shot using manual mode or scene mode. I think thats make the picture really good and natural.
I really recommend it. Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 As expected from Canon Monday, December 17, 2007
A Customer from Maryland
I've had many friends buy Canon cameras over the years and they all have been happy. I can now belong to that list. :) I like the speed of the power on and how quickly it is ready to take pictures. It was purchased for a cruise and it delivered some gorgeous photos. My SO complained about the On/Off button being soooo small with her nails, but overall she was happy with the camera. I am still learning the functions of the camera since I really did not have time to read the manual before the trip. For now, I recommend it. Was this review helpful?
4 of 5 WHAT A DEAL Monday, December 03, 2007
A Customer from New York
Bought this camera along with a canon printer for the best deal I've ever received on a digital camera.
If you need a simple point-and-shoot, this is it. Was this review helpful? |
