Canon PowerShot SD800 IS Details

Editors' Comments

Another wide-angle entry from Canon, the SD800 IS features a wonderful 28mm 3.8x optical zoom lens, with image stabilization. The SD800 IS is a nice bump for Canon's Digital ELPH series, the first of its kind to feature a wide-angle lens. With a 7.1 megapixel sensor and curvy, all-metal body, this ultracompact is sure to turn heads in the next few months.
