Pros: Great looks, megapixels, movie mode, digic 4, i-Contrast, QuickShot Cons: Picture quality can be better, small LCD, no wide angle The Bottom Line: For those who want to latest from Canon this camera might good. For those who want true quality - probably not. from Shopping.com I had taken some pictures in the park with lots of greenery and the foliage selection does indeed make a difference. The colors were just so natural and crisp when compared to the regular portrait option. I also liked the Color accent where only one color is shown and the rest is in black and white. This gives the photos a nice artistic touch. from Amazon.com I purchased the canon powershot SD790IS 10 MP and have owned it for six months. Initially, the camera was great. from Amazon.com The panel the holds the strap disconnected. The camera fell off my arm to the ground and dented!! When I called Canon they told me, "Yeah, we've had a few problems with that wristband panel." from Amazon.com Took great pictures for about a month now won't even turn on. I wouldn't recommend.... Canon does not stand behind their products either. They want a fortune to fix (more than I paid for camera). from Amazon.com I recently purchased a Canon PowerShot SD790IS 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom. It is easy to operate, pictures are unbelievably clear, it has given me the ability to see the world if a completely different way. from Amazon.com I went from having a sony camera (which I hated and broke within 2 months) and instead of going through the hassle to replace it, I just went back to Canon which I love and read all the reviews. This camera seemed to be the best and it definitely is. from Amazon.com I am writing this not only because I feel that this is an outstanding camera, but also wish to help future reviewers and purchasers to evaluate these reviews. I checked all reviews that gave this product 2 stars or less and guess what I found out...... from Amazon.com I've been using Canon cameras since long before digital. When I moved to digital a few years back, I started with a Canon Digial Rebel XT. from Amazon.com REF[[ASIN:B0011ZK6OS Canon PowerShot SD790IS 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom]. This Canon PowerShot SD790IS has been an excellent gift for my 18 year old son. from Amazon.com
