Canon PowerShot SD770 IS review

Almost identical to the PowerShot SD1000 it replaces, the SD770 IS brings optical image stabilization and a bump from 7- to 10-megapixel resolution to the ultracompact. It's also nearly identical to the slightly less expensive SD1100 IS : the only...

Very nice photos for the price; compact and attractive; optical image stabilization.

Some aspects of performance too slow.

A solid ultracompact, the SD770 IS nevertheless faces stiff competition from its closely priced line mates, the cheaper SD1100 IS and the better SD790 IS.

Canon PowerShot SD770 IS Review

With some high-profile, heavily hyped siblings around, it's easy for the Canon PowerShot SD770 IS to get overlooked. Sitting between exciting new interface designs and lots of new technology in the SD790 and 890, and the budget bomber SD1100 IS –...

Simplicity, streamlined interface are appealing, Refreshingly good ultracompact battery life, AF performance is hard to beat, Rugged build quality, classic good looks

Slow flash recycle times remain, Unimpressive lens, Sensor is a bit noisy, even at lower ISOs, Too easy to get more camera for the money
