 worth the money September 9, 2010

It is a little bit bulkier than what I had hoped for... but it does take great pictures. It has many different scenes to choose from... very user friendly. I feel like it is well worth the money... especially if you buy it used.
easy to use September 8, 2010

This camera is fun and easy to use. great for everyday pictures or quick videos. Just do not drop it because it will brake. Otherwise if you are not a professional photographer and just want to take some fun pictures and maybe add some accent colors or have fun making the sky pink and your dog blue then this is the camera for you.
 Canon PowerShot - Great small camera September 6, 2010

I bought this camera a month ago and have enjoyed the ease of use and clarity of photos since the 1st shot. Takes great dog pics and puppy pics. Also does an excellent job to document my weavings before they are sold. I'm lovin' this piece of equipment. I had to charge the battery yesterday (1 month on a charge is NOT bad)!

The Canon PowerShot SD 780IS is my latest and the fourth Digital Elph acquisition. This could very well be the last camera for this Canon branch (with 12+ megapixels)to come with a real-image optical zoom viewfinder. I hope I am wrong on this assumption.
Prove me wrong on the following three points if one could do quality photographic management without a camera viewfinder:
1) Any compact digital camera(including the new Canon brands) which allows the photographer to get a good view of the object in front through the LCD screen, with the sun on his back.
2) Any compact digital camera (including the new Canon brands) which allows the photographer to take rapid succession or panning shots viewing through the LCD screen inches away from the eyes.
3) Conserve battery with a LCD screen only digital camera.
It's no point in lamenting the whys and the stupidity of doing away with an optical zoom viewfinder on the Digital Elph series, or any similar cameras for that matter. Best Buy doesn't even carry this Digital Elph model. All PowerShot cameras or similar it carries have only LCD screens.
Compact digital cameras with viewfinders are a vanishing species. If you like a digital camera with a viewfinder, or have ever own a lower than a 10 megapixel Canon PowerShot Digital Elph, get the SD780IS camera. It's worth it.

I've owned two cameras prior to this canon (a kodak & an olympus) and this is by far my favorite. Even though it wasn't the most important factor for me, the small size is a definite plus. I've used it for an entire day without having low battery although I do think charging nightly is a good idea if you use it quite a bit. The picture quality overall is great. Yes, it takes a blurry picture from time to time, but if you set the camera correctly (its really easy to do) your pictures will turn out great. I use this camera for facebook/internet use and for printing normal size photos & find it works very well! And an added bonus - its actually a pretty tough camera. The first week I had it, it was COMPLETELY submerged underwater for 5 minutes (turned off) and after about a week of drying out, it works perfectly. I can barely believe it & it makes me love it that much more. I highly recommend this camera!
