Canon PowerShot SD780IS12.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD (Black) Right now


Once in a while I do something smart. This is one of them. I had been using my camera phone and an old Fuji camera which kept blurring out or had poor white balance. So I took the plunge and got a better camera. I was concerned because it was so small, but was lured in by it's slim and sexy design. I am so happy I did.

This camera takes great indoor shots, it's a camera that works like a professional one when it comes to taking pictures of interior. Pictures shows dimension and depth. It's auto feature is nearly perfect and the manual feature help control the white balance which is really important for product photography. Now I can post on ebay without being embarrassed about appearing cheap. I can use regular lighting without being concerned of the yellowish tinge.

People photography is fine as long as I'm not in it. Perhaps it's a little too clear. Personally I like the fuzzy haze that makes a person look sort of dreamy. But my intention wasn't for portrait photography so it wasn't a major concern.

The video is like every other video camera, it's great it can record up to 60 mins to 120 mins on a 4gb memory card (sold separate). It doesn't zoom in too well without blurring out though. So I still need to invest in another video camera if I plan to ever zoom in super close. But for YouTubing it's probably fine.

If you're looking for a good deal. I'd be patient and buy it online at places that don't charge tax and shipping. You may find yourself saving and additional $40 so you can put it into accessories like adapters, memory cards and extra battery. You'll need it. It doesn't use regular batteries.

For what I need it for, it works and I love it. It's a great entry level camera, with super quality.Get more detail about Canon PowerShot SD780IS12.1 MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.5-inch LCD (Black).

  1. Canon SD780IS is the perfect travel/everyday camera. It weighs a little over 4 ounces. The size of the camera is astonishing. It is smaller than my iPhone 3G and my wallet.
