Canon Powershot SD870 IS Digital Camera

Introducing the new Canon PowerShot SD870 which comes with great features such as a large 3-inch LCD screen and an extra wide zoom – perfect for taking great pictures.

This new camera has great features which are similar to the other two models in the series, the PowerShot SD950 IS and the PowerShot SD850 IS. All feature a very useful exposure system that groups key controls into an easy-to-read, user-friendly screen.

Also contained on all three of these cameras is a new four-way thumb button that when touched, it displays an animated replica for the button on the LCD screen. This virtual button is a useful feature which can be manually switched off in the setup menus.

The outer casing of the SD870 is made out of a combination of metal and plastic and with its plastic buttons; it does not look as rugged as the other two models. Still though, unless you are going to be taking some pictures in extreme environments, it will still hold up great after getting weary.

When it comes to picture quality, the SD870 produces photos on par with the SD950 IS and the SD850 IS. The huge LCD screen is a great benefit here when taking outdoor scenery shots, especially with a LCD brightness setting which you can alter when in dark places.

With a price tag of $350, the SD870 may seem like a little bit pricey for some, but with its large LCD screen, extra wide lens and variety of photo features, it may do enough to attract some of you out there.
