    Manufacturer Description

    This is the Digital Elph that's raising the bar. There's everything you'd expect from a camera of this caliber: a 7.1-megapixel CCD to render images in magnificent detail, and a DIGIC III Image Processor for stellar quality and fast operation. Yet what sets the SD800 IS Digital Elph apart is its wide-angle, 3.8x optical zoom with Image Stabilizer technology for rock-steady zooms. The Canon SD800 IS Digital Elph, it's the Digital Elph that's a step ahead.

    PowerShot SD800 IS Digital Elph Highlights

    7.1-megapixel Digital Elph with elegant stainless steel Perpetual Curve design The PowerShot SD800 IS features a high-resolution, 7.1-megapixel CCD to give you images of uncompromising texture and detail. With it, you'll capture what others miss - the delicate strands of a baby's hair, the intricate petals of a wild flower. Plus the camera is as beautiful to hold as the images it takes. The Perpetual Curve design has the look of fine sculpture. Yet it's practical, too. Its unique form is engineered for the shape of your hand.

    3.8x optical zoom in action Wide-angle 28-105mm (35mm equivalent) 3.8x optical zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer technology Engineered with Canon's sophisticated wide-angle 3.8x zoom lens with integrated Image Stabilizer technology, the SD800 IS Digital Elph gives you the "shake-free" performance that makes your pictures sharp and clear. No matter how close you zoom in, the SD800 IS Digital Elph keeps everything stable. All you have to think about is your subject.

    DIGIC III Image Processor with Face Detection technology The DIGIC III Image Processor is the latest advancement to Canon's proprietary DIGIC technology, delivering superior image quality, ultra-responsive performance and extended battery life. DIGIC III provides a speedier interface for the SD800 IS Digital Elph's SD memory card, as well as higher definition for its LCD monitor.

    Face Detection makes it easy to snap the perfect picture DIGIC III also empowers new Face Detection AF/AE, which finds all the faces in the frame and sets the most suitable focus point, when the shutter button is depressed half-way. Exposure and flash are controlled to ensure proper illumination of both the faces and the overall scene, eliminating the common problem of darkened or overexposed faces.

    iSAPS Technology is an entirely original scene-recognition technology developed for digital cameras by Canon. Using an internal database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works with the fast DIGIC III Image Processor to improve focus speed and accuracy, as well as exposure and white balance.

    Large 2.5-inch LCD monitor with wide viewing angle The SD800's 2.5-inch LCD monitor gives you the big picture, whether you're shooting, reviewing or showing off your images. This high-resolution screen offers a crisp, clear picture and wider viewing angle to make shooting, playback and using the camera's menu functions especially convenient. The clear and bright LCD also features Night Display mode for easy viewing in low light.

    ISO 1600 to reduce image blur and expand low-light shooting capability The PowerShot SD800 IS Digital Elph features new ISO 1600 and High ISO Auto settings that reduce the effects of camera shake and sharpen subjects in low-light situations, giving you greater flexibility for shooting.

    Improved Movie Mode with fast frame rate With the SD800 IS's Improved Movie Mode, you can shoot extremely high-quality, full-motion movies at 60 fps QVGA (320 x240). When you want to save space, you've also got Standard Recording that lets you shoot at 30 fps VGA (640 x 480). There's even a 15 fps Compact Movie Mode that's ideal for creating movies you can attach to emails.

    Print/Share button The PowerShot SD800 IS Digital Elph's Print/Share button makes direct printing easier than ever. Simply connect the SD800 IS Digital Elph to a Canon CP, SElphY or PIXMA Photo Printer or any PictBridge compatible photo printer, press the lighted Print/Share button and print! Also use the Print/Share button to transfer images to a computer (Windows and Macintosh).

    Print your own photos in 28 different sizes or use the Movie Print function to output multiple stills from a recorded movie on a single sheet with a Canon SElphY Compact Photo Printer.

    Direct Photo Printers
    For desktop large-format printing, try one of the Direct Photo Printers that allow you to print without a computer in one of two ways: plug your compatible PowerShot camera into the Direct Photo Printer using the supplied USB interface cable, or simply insert a memory card into the supplied adapter. You can also connect the printer to your computer for more options. Print high-resolution, borderless images as postcards or 8.5 x 11-inch sheets within minutes.

    Compact Photo Printers
    Compact Photo Printers let you produce versatile, fun 4 x 6-inch postcards, 4 x 8-inch wide greeting cards or credit-card size prints in just two easy steps: connect and press/print. Control the printer right from your camera's LCD monitor. You get durable, dye-sublimated prints quickly with or without borders. Assorted paper types let you create mini or credit card size labels. You can even take the SElphY ES1 and CP730 Compact Photo Printers to a party or an outdoor picnic using an optional rechargeable battery.

    GREAT Point & Shoot
    5 Stars
    GREAT Point & Shoot
    When we were ready to spend the money on a new digital camera, I looked at everything, but I kept coming back to the Canon PowerShot series. I think they are by far the best point and shoot cameras for the money. Our first digital camera was mostly plastic, and in shopping around, I found that many cameras were the same. In contrast, the SD800 feels solid and well-built. After a year of use and almost 2000 photos, it is no worse for the wear, except for some scratches. I think the only thing I would change is the camera's finish. It is beautiful when new, but it really shows every little scratch.It has a large, bright LCD screen AND a viewfinder. It uses a lithium-ion battery pack, and this was a MUST for me. I can't stand cameras that use AA batteries (or some other disposable battery). They are always dead when you need your camera. I've tried the NiMH rechargeables, and they just don't last long enough, so they are also dead when you need them. This Li-Ion battery is awesome. It lasts an incredibly long time between charges, and it charges faster than the Li-Ion battery in our old camera. It charges outside of the camera in a very compact charger, so if you want to keep a backup battery ready, you can. I did just that with our previous camera, but so far we haven't needed one with this camera. I charge the battery just before events at which I know we will want to use the camera, and it lasts so long on a charge that between those occasions it is always ready.The wide angle lens is a great feature. I am consistently able to get shots that other people can't get because they can't back up far enough. Perhaps my favorite feature about this camera is the control it gives you. While it is great in full auto mode (which is why you buy a point and shoot), it also offers some very useful scene modes, and it allows for manual adjustment of several settings. For example, you can adjust the exposure by up to 2 stops up or down, in 1/3 stop increments. I looked at several other PowerShot models, such as the SD850 and SD900, but I liked the layout of the controls on this camera the best.We have been very pleased with the SD800. It is fast, reliable, and takes beautiful shots. I have been pleasantly surprised with some of the shots I have been able to get with such a compact camera. I would personally love to have a digital SLR, but my wife wants something she can easily carry in her purse, and SLRs are too expensive. I have really enjoyed the creative control that this little camera allows. Perhaps the most amazing part was the price. I couldn't believe I was able to get a camera of this quality, packed with all these features, for under $200 on Amazon. That's a great deal on a great camera!
