Canon PowerShot SD950 IS
Sleek design with titanium casing ; great image quality ; optical image stabilization ; face detection ; optical viewfinder

Canon Powershot SD950 IS Review
The Canon Powershot SD950 IS may be a bit larger than most ultra-compact but it makes up for it in image quality and performance. The 12 megapixels sensor here does show some image noise, even at ISO 200, but details are still well-kept until ISO 400 ...
Good preservation of image details, Nice image colors, Great white-balance, even on auto, Good image sharpness, Fast and responsive, Durable build quality
Images too contrasty and low dynamic range, Some corner softness, Above average chromatic aberrations, Noticeable distortion, Short battery life, Useless ISO 1600

Battery cover latch is not particularly secure, and is prone to opening during routine handling
"great photos and easy to use"
Great photos and with 12 MP you can print la...
It is easy to take great pictures and if you use a 2GB memory card it is fast as you need, it has a traditional viewfinder for really sunny days when the LED is harder to see
nothing that I can find
