From A70 to SD990 ISNovember 17, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased a Canon Powershot SD990 IS camera after my five-year old Powershot A70 died due to a sensor failure. (Even though the camera is long out of warranty, if I return it to Canon, they will replace the sensor.) Shutter Lag was a major problem with A70. The SD990 IS appears to have none. Low-light photographs with the A70 were always blurred because of camera motion. The image stabilization and the ISO 3200 setting of the SD990 IS produce low-light images with no blur.
The sensor of the SD990 IS is a 1/1.7" CCD (7.60 x 5.70 mm, 0.43 sq cm); the A70 sensor is 1/2.7" (5.27 x 3.96 mm, 0.21 sq cm)
The LCD of the SD990 IS is larger and much brighter.
Videos from the SD990 IS look good. If I wanted HD video, I would buy a video camera.
The A70 used four AA batteries; the SD990 IS uses one small NB-5L battery pack.
The SD990 IS is smaller and lighter -- 182 gm vs. 320 gm.
The SD990 IS has not experienced the e18 error or the "lens error, restart camera". Neither did the A70 in spite of being dropped on a concrete floor from a height of three feet.
Bottom Line - I am happy with the SD990 IS and think it is worth the price.
like my old camera betterNovember 16, 2008 0 out of 12 found this review helpful
maybe i dont know how to use it. but i had sony cybershot works way better. i like canon cause it take faster pictures. and better pictures at darker place. it auto adjust the color better than sony. but my sony was a touch screen. when i use manuel i can actsually point to where i want to focus on the screen with macro or not and it will focus exactlly where i wanted to focus on. so i decied.. i'll just buy a cheaper canon for now till my husband bring my old camera back from iraq. hope this review helps...
Powershot 990IS is SuperbNovember 16, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have had several digital cameras, and next to my Nikon D80, this is the best I have had. I am still learning all it can do. reload time is short, it takes nice movie clips, has intuitive controls and a nice feel in the hand. Pictures at the high resolution levels are great and can be blown up to poster size with no loss of detail.
The price was right, the vendor sent exactly what was ordered, and i am very satsified.
Powerful Little GemNovember 14, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I got the early version of this camera in Japan, sold as the IXY 3000 IS and am head over heels in love; this replaces an SD800IS which was a long time favorite. The new one got my attention for the whopping 14.7 MP as I have been using this for taking panoramas on a GigaPan rig - [...]-- and more pixels count for much there. Plus there is the full manual (focus and exposure modes). And then there was the thrill of getting a new camera a few weeks before it was available in the US.
Mine is set up with an 8GB SD HC card, which feels infinite.
I've been very happy with the quality, and I do a lot of macro shots, posting hundreds on my flickr site [...]
The new QuickShot mode is nice- to shoot through viewfinder where you want the quickest response time. And a bonus is a long overlooked feature- an on screen battery level indicator. There is a small button where you can instantly go to view mode, rather than flipping the shooting mode. Face focussing is very handy. Video quality is superb. Having the camera stitch mode (used for getting good overlap for single row panoramas) on the presets selection is great. And w00t! It uses the same NB-5L battery, so I now have more spares.
My negatives are minor- the black style is slick, but the plastic shell feels a little cheap/flimsy, but the camera is sturdy. My biggest gripe is the latch on the battery/SD card compartment comes open easily in your bag or your pocket; the one on the SD800 never popped open on its own. The latch for the USB dock too is odd, it is hard to figure out where the hinge part is, and I always feel like I am going to do it wrong and break it off.
Spinning the lower selection wheel takes some dexterity; so setting the aperture and f/stops in manual mode is going to take some time to be a smooth process.
I've never bought a camera just because it has a large resolution, but I am shooting 4416x3312, better than my first generation Digital Rebel.
I am in love with this little camera!
Fantastic CameraNovember 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have now owned three different Canon cameras since I bought my first in 1999. My previous camera, an S60 was fantastic due to the fact that I could have more fine-grain control over my pictures than your typical point-and-shoot camera. This camera can do everything the S60 could and has a much higher resolution.
I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a small camera that allows for more control of over your picture-taking options, without having to buy a high-end digital SLR camera.
