 Canon drew inspiration from the very first ELPH and designed the Powershot SD1000 Digital ELPH, and came up with a slim, clean-lined and fully flat model. The SD1000 Digital ELPH sports a 7.1 megapixels lens, a 3x optical zoom and advanced DIGIC III to ensure top-quality images. Moreover, it helps in fast focus and automatic red-eye correction. The large LCD screen now has a tough, anti-reflective coating that makes it highly durable. The 7.1 megapixel CCD helps in capturing images with high resolution offering you enough detail to enlarge and crop at will.

The DIGIC III technology helps the camera capture superior quality shots with optimum resource usage. Due to this the camera performs efficiently and the battery life gets significantly enhanced. What's more, DIGIC III enables Canon's newly improved Face Detection Technology and Red-eye Correction to give you better, more true-to-life shots. Simply press the Shutter Button halfway down, and the Powershot SD1000 Digital ELPH automatically pinpoints the faces in the scene and chooses the ideal focus point.

The camera's Genuine Canon 3x optical zoom not only gets you in close, it even allows you to capture images with utmost clarity and brilliance. The camera's wide 2.5-inch LCD screen lets you better compose a shot, whether you're shooting, reviewing or playing back your photos. The screen is extra-durable, tough, with a scratch-resistant coating, and is a PureColor LCD screen that helps in getting a crisp, clear picture to make shooting, playback and using the camera's menu functions convenient. Clear and bright, it also features Night Display for easy viewing in low light.

Love This Camera
- Reviewd on: 2009-01-05 By: A. Boehm
I had a Canon PowerShot SD450 before this one but I broke that one so I purchased this one. It takes good quality pictures, has features for creativity (B&W, Sepia, etc), and the preview screen in the back is large so you can see what you're taking a picture of very well. Some digital cameras have tiny preview screens which I hate - but this one is excellent in size. It also is easy to use & navigate, doesn't have a very long delay between pushing the button and the picture. It can focus on up to 5 faces at once (although sometimes it picks odd objects for the "face" in a picture that doesn't have people in them). It has good zoom as well. I can't rave enough, I definitely suggest it. Oh, it also has a rechargeable battery which I have found to be a must with digital cameras as they use up regular batteries very quickly.

Not the best.
- Reviewd on: 2008-12-26 By: Yaimi Azua Vega
I am very disappointed that this camera doesn't have cropping features.I had a kodak before and I was able to trim my pictures and printed.Everybody were impressed how I was able to get close things when I took the pictures.I think that's something that all cameras should have. None of the Canon cameras have this feature.Better go with a Kodak M-1033 or a Sony.

I love this camera

its small enough to bring anywhere and the battery lasts a really long time. I was able to fill 6gb of sd cards with tons of pictures and videos and it still had battery life left over.

The picture quality and video quality are also very good

Great until the lens jams.

I enjoyed this camera until the lens jammed. I tried all the techniques used by other people who had the same problem to no avail. If a tiny grain of sand gets stuck around the lens or if you drop it from a height of 4 inches this camera my not survive.
