 SD1100 vs. SD8500: Best sidekick for the average shooter? May 1, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I started with the SD1000 in mind but soon discovered the newly introduced SD1100 before noticing that the identically-priced SD8500 was out-selling it on Amazon by a decisive margin. Even though almost a year older than the 1100, the 8500 offers a few attractive features: 1. a 4X optical zoom lens, with an impressive range of 35mm-140mm (the 1100's is 38mm-114mm); 2. marginally faster shutter operation and less lag time between shots; 3. the ISO settings are more conveniently located (under func rather than menu) for users who prefer to make the setting manually.
The experts' reviews admittedly favor the 8500, though I'm convinced present consumers are overlooking two things: first, they were written early last year and do not reflect the reviewers' response toward a newly-made camera with merely "incremental" improvements; 2nd, the slower shutter time of the 1100 (lag between depressing the trigger and getting a response) is the trade-off for the addition of a new feature, Motion Detection technology, which acts in harmony with automatic image stabilization to recalibrate camera settings to assure the right speed and exposure when extra motion in front of the lens is detected.
I went with the 1100 for several reasons: 1. It's closer in size, weight and appearance to the ultra-compact, classic SD1000 than the "rounder" 8500 (for the record, the 1100 reintroduces the "softer" edges of the 1000's predecessor, the SD600); 2. the new Motion Detection system compensates for any additional lag time; 3. it offers an improved screen-- PureColor II (a noticeable improvement over PureColor).
In short, this is the ideal lazy person's camera, one that makes a nice complement to the good life.
 Great purchase May 1, 2008

I give all the credit to my wife for finding this camera. I needed a new camera and she came to my rescue! All I wanted was something easy to use and compact. Well, to my surprise I got the PowerShot SD1100IS and it is great! More pixels than I need, yet a perfect size for travel. My boss has the SD1000 and he loves his camera...but definitely took interest in mine. I have a 4GB card, very necessary for a frequent snapshot like myself. All in all, the size was right and the pictures are great. Perfect for a high-time traveler like myself.
Sharp and Simple April 29, 2008

I always look to CANON, when it comes to an imaging device. I own several Canon cameras, (still and video), (2) printers and (2) scanners. The CANON SD1100IS does everything it claims with the same quality as the more expensive cameras do. With the arrival of my 2 grandchildren, I wanted a camera that captured Clean, Sharply focused pictures quickly, since babies won't pose for you. So far, since I purchased this at the end of March, I have taken over 300 photos. At present, I have only charged the battery once and it is still ready to shoot. The on-board effects add an incredible touch of professionalism to my pictures. Sunlight, indoors, at night, ambient lighting without a flash, every picture a keeper! If you are looking for versatility, simplicity, and great pictures you will be proud of, consider the SD1100IS. I researched a lot of cameras, and the SD1100IS did all I wanted and more, for a very affordable price.

I just came back from The Netherlands and this camera performed fantastic!
My pictures are beautiful and I was able to do many different functions with the camera. I would highly recommend to all.
 Decent April 27, 2008

The image stabilization and the face detection work well, and most images come out wonderfully. There is a noticeable issue with noise and fast moving subjects are still an issue for me. One is common in ultra compacts and one may simply require another round with the manual so take that for what it's worth.
I found the menu and settings to be usable, but the settings I want are sometimes buried on a third level. Sometimes menu response has lagged a bit, which can be frustrating when your subject is moving faster than you are.
I moved from a Canon SD20 so having an optical zoom is wonderful. Plus, this camera is not that much larger than the SD20 so I still feel like I will take it out with me without worrying about bulk.
Battery life seems fine so far...much better than the SD which only holds a few minutes charge these days, despite having replaced the battery.
The SD1100 seems to do a decent job overall and overcomes the photographic failures of it's operator (what do I know). If you want a simple point and shoot, you could do much worse. If you want more manual control over your pics, really good low light performance or something to document your next roller derby match, this may not be ideal.
