Surprisingly nice
(Marko Strunk - 11/28/08)My previous compact camera was a Canon SD800 IS. I bought it for the wide angle lens. It took exceptionally good photos and I was a little disappointed when a friend talked me out of it.
I ordered an SD880 IS as a replacement and figured it would be about the same with some more unnecessary pixels. Boy, was I wrong.
The SD880 IS has a much better lens than the SD800 IS. The 880 lens is sharp in the corners at all lengths, whereas the 800 lens got a little soft at the edges. Photos are incredibly crisp.
The 880 also turns on faster and has a more congenial control arrangement. I also very much like the 880's ability to voice record a note in a .WAV file to go with a particular photo. I also prefer the 3" LCD screen and don't miss the 800's viewfinder at all.
Well done, Canon.
