Canon PowerShot SD110
Editor's Review
The ultra compact Canon PowerShot SD110 is the smallest of Canon's acclaimed Digital ELPH series of cameras. Unlike other digital ELPHs, the PowerShot SD110 uses a Secure Digital memory card, enabling Canon to house the SD110 in a slightly smaller body than other ELPH cameras. Despite its small size, the SD110 offers 3.2 megapixel resolution, 2x optical zoom and the ability to take videos with sound.

Canon PowerShot SD110 Comments & Questions (write your own!)
the camera says no images but i have taken some. why? (lnbuckner — 12/11/2008)

Are you using a memory card? The camera has internal memory, but the only explanation I can think of is maybe your memory card is faulty, but since it's inserted, the camera is trying to save to it and is not able to.

First thing I would do is reset the camera. This is a fairly easy procedure which involves either going into your setup menu and choosing "reset" (or intialize), holding down the menu key for 5 seconds, or, removing the batteries for a few minutes. It may be that the firmware loading got corrupted and the camera just needs to be "rebooted," which is something that turning it on/off won't accomplish. But after which, you should have the camera reset to factory default settings.
Another tip is to go to Canon's website ( usa.canon.com/consumer/cont... ) and look for firmware updates. Download and install them.
In addition, Your camera was one of a host of cameras that suffered from a faulty CCD chip. Check out this ( usa.canon.com/consumer/cont... ) from Canon regarding it.
Affected products:
- Camcorders: ZR60, ZR65 MC, ZR70 MC, ZR80, ZR85, ZR90, ELURA 40 MC, ELURA 50
- Digital Cameras A60, A70, A75, A300, A310, S230, SD100, SD110, A40(*), A80(*), A85(*), A95(*), S1 IS(*), S60(*), S200(*), S330(*), S400(*), S410(*), S500(*)
Malfunction:
It has been confirmed that the connecting parts of the internal wiring of the CCD used in affected products may become disconnected, especially if the affected products are stored or used in high-temperature and high-humidity environments. If this occurs, the signal is not output from the CCD normally in Shooting Mode, which may cause a distorted image or the absence of an image. This malfunction can be confirmed on the LCD monitor screen during shooting. The same malfunction also appears on the recorded image.
Canon's Response:
Effective immediately, and regardless of warranty status, Canon will repair, free of charge, the products listed above exhibiting the above-mentioned malfunction if Canon determines that the malfunction is caused by the CCD image sensor. Canon will also cover the cost of shipping and handling in connection with this repair.
So the good news is that Canon will fix it for FREE:

Hi Michael.
I could write up a list of differences here, but luckily there's dpreview to make things easy for us. Here's a side by side comparison ( dpreview.com/reviews/compar... ) of the SD110, SD100 and (because I wasn't sure that you didn't actually mean the SD1000 when you said SD100) the SD1000 (a much more uip to date model).
Hope this helps!

This little camera kicks. If you are reading this then chances are you are thinking about buying it. Do it! It's exactly the size of a cigarette pack (I have a feeling this wasn't a coincidence) so you slap it in your pocket and snap away. One bad thing is that the silver finish on the corners wear off. This happens with anything you put in and out of your pocket, so a nice neoprene case is a good investment...if you care about that. If you're a casual pic hunter this camera is perfect for you. Plus, if you don't like it you can always sell it on ebay.

Great for a first digital camera
(anonymous — 07/18/2006)
I got this camera about 8 months ago and it's been great for the price. I gave this 5 stars assuming you're looking for something for a beginner. This is an excellent point-and-shoot camera. You don't have total control over EVERY setting on the camera, but you can customize white balance, ISO speed, sharpness, image size, and shutter speed (you can have it open up to 15 seconds). It even has a setting that allows you to hold down the button and take consecutive shots at just over 1 shot per second. The image quality on the camera is very good and at maximum resolution I had an 8x10 of a picture I took made and it looked great. My mother didn't believe I had taken the picture myself when I gave it to her as a birthday present. With a 128 MB card, you can easily take 76 pictures at full resolution and sharpness. Bump the resolution a step-down and you can fit around 200 on the same card. I've gone on trips where I've changed resolutions based on how important the pictures were and come home with 150+ photos on the card. Great camera for going on trips. In short, I would highly recommend this camera if you want a good point-and-shoot easy-to-use and not very expensive camera. If you're more of a professional though, I'd recommend spending an extra couple hundred dollars. I know that after using this camera, I've come to enjoy taking pictures more and now I've got my eye on a Powershot G6 as my next camera.
