Canon’s PowerShot SD880 combines a broad feature set into a pocket-sized package to let you capture the world around you. 10.0 megapixels of imaging power give you the ability to create photos with incredible quality and clarity. The 28mm wide-angle lens lets you take in your surroundings with image area equal to a 35mm film camera. Use the 4x optical zoom to get closer to your subject and count on optical image stabilization to ensure sharp images even when you’re following the action. The 3-inch PureColor II LCD lets you see your image as the camera sees it – enabling you to catch the perfect moment.
Canon’s exclusive DIGIC 4 image processor takes most of the guesswork and luck out of getting a good picture. It offers faster, more accurate noise reduction at higher ISO speeds, and incorporates iSAPS technology to improve image focus along with color balance. The New Face Self-Timer allows you to get into the picture with the camera waiting until it recognizes an additional face before taking the shot.
Red-eye can be eliminated automatically or manually within the camera. Additional settings let you take control of the entire picture-taking process with 19 shooting modes including 16 special scene options. Printing straight from the camera on select SELPHY and PIXMA photo printers. Life happens – capture it with the PowerShot SD880.

Best all around after much research and trial
- Pros: I was looking for a camera to complement my SLR. I have two boys under age 5 and wanted something I could easily take with me when the SLR was too big. This would be in very active settings when the boys wouldn't stand still, but I needed the shot. The camera needed to be very portable, very quick to focus and shoot, good in low light or w/o flash, and durable. After researching on line for a few days I chose the Canon SD series and Sony (T and W series). I considered Samsung (good all around) and Fuji (good in low light), but after reading more and using them in the store (I took pictures of my kids in the store to evaluate speed and flexibility), I decided eliminated them. I was ready to sacrifice a little photo quality for speed reasoning that I'd rather have a less than perfect shot vice miss the shot. I got the Sony DSC-T77, the DSC-W170 as well as the Canon SD880IS and strated taking pictures. The Canon takes the best movies. (cont'd in other)
- Cons: I captured some photos with the Sony T-77 at the kids museum that the Canon was too slow to get, but only 2 or three out of the entire bunch of 150+. The Sony T-77 is better than the Canon at focusing on a specific subject when there are many arrayed in depth (such as at a long craft table) since you can touch the kid you want to focus on on the touchscreen and the Sony will focus there. On the Canon you have to hope that it will focus on the right kid. It rarely did, but the resultant shots were not perceptably worse than the Sony unless blown up to large scale. The Sony did very slightly better in low light without a flash. Both took bad pics in this setting, but the Sony was slightly more recognizable. The Canon is twice as thick as the T-77, but not much more uncomfortable to carry in a pocket. The Canon flash tends to be too powerful and wash out subjects more than the Sony and can't be scaled down.
- Other Thoughts: The Canon SD880IS movies rival my camcorder. They are head and shoulders better than the Sony's. Only the T77 and SD880IS could use the zoom while filming. The SD880IS also takes better pictures than the Sonys. It is hard to tell unless you blow the pictues up or zoom past 40%, but the difference goes from negligible to the Canon being much better depending on the shot. The Sony was better on few shots. I took 150 pics apiece in various conditions with various settingson the T77 and Canon at a kids museum. The two camera's pictures from there were almost exactly the same. The Canon took slightly better pictures and much better movies. If I though the cameras might not be quick enough in a scene, I started just taking movies with the Canon. The Canon was much easier to use with a computer. It is SD/SDHC, also works as an SD drive, SDHC is much cheaper than Memory Stick, and compatable with all my devices. The Canon battery lasts 2-3 times longer than the T77 and charges twice as fast.
First Time Buyer
- Pros: My daughter told me about your site. This is my 1st time buying from Newegg.com and it was so easy. Very easy guides as you through the buying process;E-mail confirmations immediately;Shipping notice & Tracking available. But most important: Their service is ***Excellent*** I recieved my purchase in ONE day and it was exactly what I ordered in perfect condition. I would use Newegg.com in a heartbeat again & again, etc.
- Cons: NONE

Super camera
- Pros: Great point and shoot. Controls are more tactile and responsive than the SD870IS. Wide angle is super. Super picture quality.
- Cons: Like all small point and shoots they work best in good lighting.
- Other Thoughts: I've got a nikon slr which I like best in that format, but for a point and shoot Canon seems to have the best PQ.
