I bought this camera through amazon(I think source is VL camera) on a good deal.It is a great camera.very handy and very good clarity.I love it.
I also own a lower-end digital rebel (10 meg, 2009 model, about $1k retail). sony, olympus, etc, cannot compete with the r&d $ that canon throws at it's cameras. save yourself some time and quite shopping other brands--just figure out what you want in a camera and then what canon fits that bill and then start looking at various vendors for the best price. every photo professor I have ever worked with goes with canon when they go digital.
(I bought a back-up battery and have only needed it a couple times). I got this one due to the small size and weight--I am a climber. This camera was made for me--I understand digital cameras and what they should do. I would recommend this camera to anyone (canon sd770is). enjoy. :) the lightweight of the sd770 is absolutely fantastic.
skip any extended warranty--not necessary--spend the extra money on a big memory card. battery works well for a full week of shooting in the field, as long as you don't spend lots of time looking at your videos.
6/2009 = posted. the picture quality is stunning, the camera is solid and real.
these new batteries are way better than just 2 year ago. wow, now that is a camera--(apples and oranges to the sd770is).
I am a serious photographer as well as a point-and-shoot fool. oh, also the buttons are big enough to be navigated with liner gloves on.
I have absolutely no affiliation with canon or any camera company--I am a art professor.
I get a lot of red eyes in pictures, but camera has an automatic red-eye correction feature which works wonderfully. I've had it for 3 months now and love it. I bought this camera to take snapshots of people and places while traveling. I especially like that in addition to the large screen, it has a view finder, which is hard to find now in small cameras. Takes great pictures, images and colors come out clean and crisp. Comes with good features, including contiuous shooting mode, black and white, sepia, and other color accent features. Battery lasts a long time. Highly recommend it.
good picture quality, pretty decent functionality selection. I also have Nikon D60 SLR camera, and interchangeably taking pictures with both of them. Of course you can see the difference in quality, but still the cannon SD770IS pictures looks pretty good next to professional camera pics.
Especially like the fact that it easily fit in my pockets and the fact that the battery charger had the plug built into it, therefore not requiring a separate cord. Bought this for a trip around South America and couldn't be happier with how it worked. Excellent battery life, fair amount of options for those who don't have much experience taking pictures and the quality of the pictures were consistently good. Camera also records decent video. For an all around camera, I highly recommend this.
