Description Features Crutchfield Hands-on Research Accessories
 

The powerful, compact SD870 IS is perfect for on-the-go shooting. Its wide-angle 3.8X zoom lens lets you snap large group photos in tight quarters, or record breathtaking panoramic landscapes. And you'll enjoy detailed, blur-free photos thanks to its 8.0-megapixel sensor and optical image stabilization.

Canon's latest image processor provides faster camera response and cleaner pictures with more accurate colour. A sophisticated Face Detection system finds all the faces in the frame for more accurately focused people shots. A 16:9 photo mode lets you capture still images that look fantastic when displayed on your widescreen TV or computer monitor. Canon includes a 32MB SD™ memory card. For more picture and movie storage, just add optional SD memory cards.

Easy Camera July 28, 2008
Reviewer: Beebeepo from Phila.PA  
I bought this camera for it's simplicity and simple it is. It does everything I wanted it to. Easy to operate. Just like it says point & shoot. Great pictures every shot. Sharp, clear & in focus.  A little pricey though. I take it with me everywhere. Long battery life. Doesn't need to be recharged after a few shots. With the larger memory card it takes long videos also. I simply just love it.


 
Great multi function camera July 17, 2008
Reviewer: Faisal from Mason, OH  
This is my third Canon camera, previous two were a SLR (AE1 Program) and a Digital (S30). Each one had great performance, i.e. best in class images and no reliability issues.

The SD870 takes great pics, has excellent battery life and I love it's ability to take good quality video clips, i.e. no need to carry around an extra video camera.


 
This camera is Special June 14, 2008
Reviewer: Coy from Florence, AL  
Love this camera.  So many options to take great pictures.  Manual is easy and simple to understand.  I have a Nikon D40 and this camera takes pictures that are equal or better, and is much more convenient to carry around.  Put it in your pocket and you will forget it is there.  Best of all is Crutchfields' service and knowledge of its sales team.  I don't shop anymore, just call Crutchfield.  Rhonda you are the best.


 
Very nice camera February 23, 2008
Reviewer: Bill from Chicago, IL  
Great purchase experience - all of my questions were answered, fast delivery and an excellent price.  

My old camera is a Sony Mavica - probably 10 years old  - 3.5 in floppy etc., so an upgrade was long over due.  Upon receipt, I found myself walking around my house taking pictures of everything because of the great quality.  All of the controls are easy and intuitive, the battery seems to have good life and the picture quality from snow shots to inside and outside are great.  I recently went to the Chicago Auto show - and was amazed at how nice the photos were, at full resolution, I could zoom and see fingerprints on the cars.  Something that was not possible with my old camera.  One feature that works better than I expected is the movie feature - it has surprisingly good quality and sound.  

All in all, I would recommend this unit, for the size, price and picture quality.  I don't think it can be beat.  Make sure to buy the 4-gig card.  I also purchased the small Tamrac carrying case. The camera fits perfectly with no problems.

Thanks Crutchfield.  Bill G.
