 Good little camera packed with great features July 4, 2008
I did a lot of research before I picked this camera; every site recommended cannon. Sony, casio all had picture problems. I picked this camera because it has a 5x optical zoom, low light feature, compactness, and the buttons are not close to one another so easy to use if you have big fingers.
Camera is loaded with features but not all are easy to get to if you have big hands that is my one downside of this camera. Changing to some manual setting can be a challenge and finding where to review pictures as well. Did not think I would like the face detection feature but I was pleasntly surprized, it does a great job find the face except if you have sunglasses on. The faces come out great in the picture; 10 MP may be an overkill but I like sometimes like to crop and enlarge certain parts of the picture and hanve 10 MP makes sure the picture is not grainy. Lastly night pictures without the flash come out good not excellent but very good;although it does take a min to change all of the settings for low light mode. The software it comes with is okay, if you are really into photography I sugguest buy another package.
 AMAZING camera for AMAZING price!!! June 19, 2008

This camera is TOTALLY AWESOME!!! :-) :-) :-) I am in LOVE!!! :-) :-) ;-) I had been using the Canon SD300, which I bought 3 years ago new (for more $), and this one BLOWS it away!!! (And fits in the same SMALL soft case, as this camera is just a bit thicker :-) ) The SD890IS is VERY easy to use and takes GREAT pictures!!! :-) :-) :-) The physical zoom range is AMAZING too!!! :-) :-) :-) The camera is nice and light to hold, and one can just point and shoot, or play with the settings; whatever you want to do :-) :-) ONE caveat; when using the "Indoor" setting, the picture can come out a bit dark if you're a bit far away from the subject of the photo, so careful with that one. (However, that is fixable in the software on one's computer.) Buy a FAST, LARGE SD card to go with, as you will be playing with this camera TONS, and the included SD card will fill up WAY too fast. (SD cards that come with cameras are ALWAYS too small.) You can buy one on Amazon here for NICE and cheap :-) I bought the Kingston Class 4, 4 GB Card and L-O-V-E it :-) )4GB SDHC Class 4 Flash Card
Tiny, but Powerful June 16, 2008

The Canon Powershot SD890IS is a tiny camera, but a very powerful one. It makes wonderfully clear photos with little effort. It makes superb pictures with the Macro setting. Telephoto shots are good and clear, thanks to the great Image Stabilization. I even get really good images of moving vehicles, thanks to the Motion Detection. I charged the battery when I got it, and it is still going strong after I have taken at least a hundred photos. The SD890IS is a fine camera. I love it!
Amazing zoom June 13, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the 4th Canon I have owned and my 3rd Elph...
Let me start by saying nothing can replace my SD 700 which I lost...
4x optical zoom, buttons were all in a good location, compact camera and LIGHT!! If they made the same camera with more mega pixels I would buy it in a second (even though the 6.3MP took very crisp pictures)
I purchased the SD 1100 and returned it 2 days later... I hated it. Zoom was awful pictures came out awful. I replaced it with a SD850
OK camera. Much heavier than the SD700, same zoom, buttons not as convenient, very good picture quality... basically as close to the SD 700 as you can get with all the Elphs that are out there. Has an additional feature that lets you turn light specs (such as Christmas lights into stars and hearts)
After 2 months I saw the SD 890 and had to have it...
Pros: Camera is much lighter
Zoom is AMAZING!!
I do like the review button they put on the camera
Cons: The placement of the buttons suck.
It is hard to turn the camera on
I don't like were the wheel is places
Body is larger than SD 700
All in all any of the above mentioned Elphs are GREAT. They take pictures a lot faster than any other camera. There is hardly any delay. The pictures are crisp and the colors are vibrant. I have only had the 890 for a few days and I am hoping it will live up to the SD 700 standards.
Very Pleased with Camera and Amazon June 9, 2008

I was looking for another Canon camera to replace my SD700IS and couldn't find anything with comparable optics in that model. I found out about the new SD890IS but couldn't find anyone who had it available online or in a retail store within 120 miles of me. Google pointed me to Amazon who I would not have thought of for buying a camera, and not only did they have it in stock, but for less than the cost of gas, plus not having to waste a day traveling, I had the camera within 24 hours. It was also $50 cheaper than the online sites who had it on back order. I'm very pleased with the camera which has all the features of my old one, plus 5X optical and 10MP which is an upgrade from the 4X & 6MP of the SD700IS. Both Macro and Telephoto images are very impressive for a camera small enough to be constantly carried around with me on my belt. It has a large enough selections of modes to handle most situations. I also like it's movie capabilities. At a commencement exercise a couple of weeks ago I was able to get some surprisingly decent pictures under the circumstances without using a flash, because I was able to use a very high ISO and could match the type of available indoor lighting. This compact camera has a lot of capabilities.
