manual exposure
by corkythepork August 19, 2007 11:28 PM PDT
Please, please, please stop saying that the canon SD's do not have manual exposure controls...I've owned a Canon SD630 and used various other SD's before and they all have it. It's been so long since I've last used one of those though. but i believe if you scroll to the EV settings menu (where you select from -2 to +2 to darken or brighten you pics) and press the "menu" button, you'll see the exposure control. Reading about this feature being unavailable over and over again for every single one of these models makes me feel like you arent really going through them thoroughly

powershot SD870 IS plastic body/case...
by diksietje January 24, 2008 11:11 AM PST
Oh nooooo..... Too bad; this camera takes beautiful pics, but the (plastic) case is of a horrible, HORRIBLE Quality! Only had it for three months and it fell apart and guess what? They made me pay for repair!!! Anyone else had these problems?

I take good care of my stuff and this should have NOT happened! It scratches incredibly fast also... not worth the money I'd say... very sad...
