Great photo quality; interesting design.
Mixed performance; no optical zoom in movie mode.
For most people, the excellent photo quality of the Canon PowerShot SD790 IS will more than make up for any slight performance deficiencies or minor shortcomings. Specifications: Digital camera type: Ultracompact; Resolution: 10 megapixels; Optical zoo...
Not the best 10-megapixel images weve seen. Lacks features, particularly manual control.
The Canon SD790 IS is a typical 10-megapixel compact in an innovative body. The feature-set is workable and includes optical image-stabilization, though the panorama assist is lacking, and we would have liked to see more additions like manual contro...

Abstract: of a number of new IXUS models, it did not make my photographic heart miss a beat. To be honest, I have had so many IXUS cameras in my hands that Ive lost count. However; the design department of Canon was able to surprise me again with their ingenui...
3-inch LCD. Newly designed click-wheel control is fast and effective. Excellent images at high ISO settings. Motion-detection technology. Sunset scene mode.
Click-wheel control takes some getting used to. Wide-angle lens could be wider. Slightly underexposed flash shots.
For its sleek design, superb new features, and overall excellent image quality, the Canon PowerShot SD790 IS earns our Editors Choice....
Abstract: I remember when Canon launched its first IXUS camera. The original IXUS used APS film to record its images, rather than a CCD and memory card. The introduction of the APS film format allowed for far smaller compact cameras to be produced, but the IXUS too...
