Canon SD870 IS Digital Camera

I am very please with the purchase of this camera. Very easy to use, great for getting action shots of the grandkids. Takes excellent scenery photos, crisp, clear and true color. Battery is long lasting, have purchased extra battery to always have another fully charged with me. Used to take pictures of the interior of my home, then used photoshop to change colors on walls, furniture, etc. and wala did my decision making of redecorating with ease. Would recomment this camera to everyone.

Canon 870 Power shot Camera

Everyone had been raving about what a great camera Canon makes so I decided to buy one before my trip to Thailand and China. It was everything everyone said; easy to operate, lightweight, excellent features like the ability to take panoramas and movies. I would recommend this camera to anyone.

Great camera in any light!

I have tried many brands of cameras: Kodak, Fuji, Sony....This camera beats all of them hands down. The battery life is phenomenal, the pictures in light and dark come out very clear with little digital noise, there is easy access to manual controls, face detection and image stabilization work wonderfully, easy to work and figure out....I'm still discovering all of the features. I would definately recommend to a novice and to an experienced shutter bug!

Customer Reviews

Great camera from a company with great customer support.

First let me start my post by saying I got my S5 free from Canon as my S1 (the older model) died on me. The problem was due to Canon's CCD fault so even though it was out of warranty, they were to repair it. But no parts to repair, so they gave me the equivalent line of model which is now the S5. I didn't even have to pay shipping returning the unit! Talk about amazing customer service. What other company would do this? This factor alone suggests that one should not just look into price/features but also that of the reputation for customer service with the company. Canon is at the top!

As for the camera itself, I'm just floored since going from the S1 to S5 is a huge difference. The basic shape remains the same, which I just love. The flipping LCD means so much to me since I can take self portraits all the time. The larger LCD allows for increased resolution and it shows! The old S1 had a tiny 1.5" screen that made it impossible to really get details in the shot.

Lens cover -- same as the S1, it's hard to put on. BUT there's a reason for this. You can screw on an extension lens body. If they made the lens cover integrated this feat would be difficult to offer. I prefer the ability to add a wide angle lens to the unit.

Video quality -- Truly the best out there for a consumer camera. Some criticize the lack of onboard compression. Well, I'm glad there isn't any. Compression makes the video look horrible. Witness that on other cameras out there that offer so-called 640x480 30fps with quicktime or whatever. Looks fugly when you view it with pixelation and jerkyness in high speed action. Not the case with the S5 where video is as smooth as from a camcorder.

Quality of the photos -- this is definitely no SLR. ISO 80/100 should be the main shooting speed. ISO 400/800 should only be used in cases where you either have a choice of NO shot or a shot at all -- they will be noisy but at least you'll have something. The high zoom makes this particularly true for action shots. Honestly, let's be real here. You're next step for a high ISO with image stabilized high zoom on an SLR is going to cost you thousands of dollars just for the lens body itself! I'll happily take the noise over the cost savings.

Scene modes -- so many features, so many settings. But it's actually pretty logically laid out for you. Each setting will print the words so you no longer have to guess what the heck "TV" mode is (and it's not for television!).

Dislikes from the S1 -- very upset that the SD card slot is integrated under the battery cover. What were they thinking? It's moronic to say the least. I'm always afraid the battery cover latch will break off years ahead. Anyhow, I would suggest people to purchase an 8GB SDHC card to remedy this situation. Use a very large card so you don't have to swap out the memory card. 8GB is very cheap now, around $50. Don't buy little 1GB cards due to this issue.

Overall, I'm looking forward to using my S5 for years to come.

Excited buyer I've done research on this product and this was about %50 dollars cheaper then purchasing this in stores, that is including shipping. Great Buy!!!

Great Camera!

I am upgrading from the Sony DSC-H2, which I loved, but my husband could not stand how slow the flash took to load up. I love the Sony photos, and was a little weary of the Canon after reading some reviews. Despite the negative reviews, the customer photos here on Amazon and sample photos on other sites...in addition to the sale price...helped me decide to buy the S5! My own experience with this camera has produced beautiful photos! The colors are terrific, the sharpness is very nice, and the noise is not a problem...unless you tend to print very large pictures. I even did comparisons with my H2, and the Canon S5 IS definitely produces better quality photos. I look forward to really getting this camera out more!!
