Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon PowerShot SD1000 7.1MP Digital Elph Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Black)
Customer Review: Very Nice Little Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this camera about a year ago. I live in the US in a very scenic area. I've used this camera for photographing people, wildlife, and scenery. Yesterday, I was out getting some area shots for a scrapbook I'm working on and as an aside played with some of the features I hadn't used much before.
Some wildlife showed up that I was able to get some great shots of, a great blue heron, a doe and her fawn, then the doe running when her baby went out of sight. I have so many pictures of the heron that I don't really need all of them which will make it difficult to decide how many and which ones to print.
I tend to use it mostly in auto mode but have begun to experiment. Yesterday I experimented with the mode which takes one photo right after another. It worked great and enabled me to photograph a man learning to hang glide as the parachute looking glider went from flat on the ground to airborn and the man going over the bluff to the field below.
My camera said there were 400 pictures on it yesterday when I downloaded the photos to my computer. Most of those were from yesterday. I had charged up the battery the other day and it died on me yesterday so I had to quit taking pictures. That's the first time I've had that happen. Before I've always charged it up when I figured it needed it. Unfortunately I didn't have a back up battery. I have 3 coming that I ordered today.
One thing I really like about this camera is that it takes SD memory which is widely available, available in a range of memory, and can often be found on sale at various stores. My other digital camera has memory that is brand specific.
This is my third digital camera. The first came free when we bought a printer. The second one was much nicer but this Canon camera is much more compact. I carry it around in my purse so I can take a photo at a moment's notice.
Within the last couple of weeks I've taken probably close to 1,000 photos. A lot of them are indeed junk shots but those are easily deleted. The camera gives options to select which photos you want to delete.
The only problem I've had with the camera is that it suddenly wouldn't download from the camera any more. I double and triple checked that everything was set up correctly. Fortunately we have a newer printer that I can load the SD card into and it sends the photos to the computer for me. I can also print right from the printer and bypass the computer entirely.
There are a lot of features the camera offers that I've not played with yet but the one I used a lot yesterday was the kids and pets mode. This mode is great for anything that moves. This is one of the modes that offers the continuous option which I used yesterday for photographing the wildlife and the paraglider student.
I'm a wanna be photographer with no formal training but have been blessed on many occasions such as yesterday to get some great shots even though I don't know as much as want to about shutter speeds, f/stops, and such.
