Product Reviews:

Summary: Easy to use pocket camera, however needs great light
Rating: 3 out of 5 Date: 2009-03-07
It works as advertised. I use it as a go anywhere back-up to my DSLR. Given the amount of pixels crammed onto the small sensor the image noise is pretty unacceptable above ISO 200. I purchased this particular model over many other ones in part because it had the lowest pixel density available. Movie mode works pretty well, and the wide angle lens starting at 28 mm equivalent is great.

Summary: Nice POS however Poor Lens

As a 1st time Canon owner I was pleased by the picture quality of the 870IS. It does ething I wanted a POS to do... except1small thing. This camera has broken on me twice in the span of 6 months with the same problems (lens error). After a while, the lens will not retract when turning off and then the auto-focus is permanently blurry.

Summary: Not too great with flash
Rating: 4 out of 5 Date: 2009-02-28
almost allly fine except for the flash.
The reaction time for the flash is slow.
It took the picture more than a sec after I press the howeverton.
Also, the lighting (color) of the pictures is not that great when using flash.

Summary: Great camera
Rating: 5 out of 5 Date: 2009-02-02
It is user friendly, even for those camera illiterate people. Takes great pictures and video

Summary: Poor Service

We purchased2of these for our daughters. Both had screen problems about 11 months into use. We had purchased1from Best purchase and extended warranty covered. The other we sent to Canon for warranty service. They did not cover under warranty & want to charge $150 to repair. Will not purchase Canon again except from Best purchase...
