Customer Reviews:

I am a semi pro photographer. I take my kit which also includes a HD Video camera with me on holidays and assignments. But there are times when the camera and lenses just too bulky and a huge hassel to carry around. I needed something small but able to capture good quality images. I have always ...

Fantastic. Well done and I think canon should give you a nice christmas present for promoting their product. I have been researching point and shoot cameras and have come to this little gem which will make a great present for my girlfriend :)

[ONIProductionsLtd]

Too bad YouTube couldn't do the pix quality justice, ah well, still amazing. I'm visually impaired n I'll never see a bee that clear in my life, so that was real cool to me. More I see, more I want this cam, I'mma get it soon!

[1029db]

This was a really good video you made! It showed a lot of features that no other people have shown with their powershots. I have had my sd1100 for a little over a week and i like it a lot. Again great video.

That time lapse clip with your dog and Canon running in the background... honestly looks like a piece of art to me. Nice! ;) I think that was what made me buy this camera in the end.

[waltdisney01]

[dutratube]

Excellent video ! Thanks for the public service.

I will probably buy the camera.

[delatina]

nice vid! im planning to get one for xmas :) but im confused if this one or the sony t700 or the t77 lol (:

[jgarcia19]

digitalcamerainfo(dot)com is a good place to compare the two cameras. Although the Sony camera is stylish, Canon has better picture quality.

You can compare actual pictures taken by people form the two cameras at flickr(dot)com.

Just scroll down to find the link: Camera Finder.

Good luck deciding. :-)

[delatina]

thx man ur dabest ;)

[ref1ex]

Thanks to your feature sample and some other research, I went ahead and purchased this camera and I'm pleased with the results.

Thanks for posting.

[prep4md]

I just bought this camera today :)

Thanks for sharing this video with us.

[mindakay09]

Thank you so much for this video! Exactly what I needed! :]

[mazettas]

Great compact camera indeed!

A small useful tip:

Set the unused Print button to be the REC for video, so you can take videos immediately while you are at Photo Mode!

[fattybekah]

wow thanks for this!

[barquiambao]

whts the name of the dog? :D

[jgarcia19]

The star of the clip is AJ.

[95PinkTiger]

please pleas tell me about colour excursion or something? because i want to get this camera??

thanks great video i will rate

[jgarcia19]

Color Exursion? I'm not quite sure what that is. Do you mean exclusion? Such as choosing one color at a time and making everything else black?

[95PinkTiger]

yh colour exclusion...:P please tell me how to doo it =D

thanks x

[jgarcia19]

The function is called Color Accent.

Turn on the camera in camera mode.

-Press the FUNC. SET key in the center of the circle.

-Press to the right of the circle (picture of a lightning bolt) until the red cursor highlights the eyedropper with the letter A.

-Press the FUNC. SET button again. You are now in the Color Accent mode.

-Press the DISP. button. The screen will look like it is flashing and a small square will be in the center of the screen.

[jgarcia19]

-Then put whatever color you would like to exclude in the center of that box and then press the right side of the circle, it has the icon of the flower and mountain.

-You will now see that color in the center of the box at the bottom of the screen. That color will accented in the picture while everything else appears in black and white.

-Press the DISP. button again and you are ready to take the picture.

-Good luck.

[ref1ex]

The time lapse feature is slick.

As far as the zoom being blurry on videos, I think it's slow to focus but most point & shoots are like that. Now that i think of it, Most compact cameras with video doesn't even allow you to zoom. Only for taking still photographs. The only bummer is that you can't stitch the panorama shots in the camera, you have to use the software on your computer. The Kodak M3310 allows you to do it in the camera.

Can you stitch together more than 3 pics for panorama shots?

[jgarcia19]

Yes I can stitch together more than 3 pics.

The blurriness in the video occurs because once you start the recording, the lens is locked into place and when you zoom in it goes into digital zoom which lowers the quality of the video.

[colala65]

Nevermind I found the composer. Perfect choice for your canon, "Pachelbel's Cannon in D Major" Brilliant!

[jgarcia19]

:-)

[colala65]

I am sold! I know this is off topic and I am not into classicals but, who is the composer of this piece?

[Magicboy1414]

Hi!

I have the ixus 80 is and I wonder if ther is some caputre program for the ixus 80 is.

Thanks!!!

[asm1976]

This is a great video and you may have convinced me on what camera to get!

[steveguydammit]

i have that camera but how do you do the color exclusion?...........thanks.

[quintempo74]

ive just bought same one in silver, mine is the ixus80is which is the same one, is there black and white on it

[fegito]

coool might get this, but im thinking of taking it to a gig so whats it like in the dark and what is teh video sound like?

[lancecryor]

I know this is probably a dumb question but I need a straight answer. Can you record video's on this camera and if so whats the video time limit?

[jgarcia19]

No it's not a dumb question. You can record on this camera for as long as the battery last or until the SD card is full. It is highly recommended to get extra batteries and 4GB or higher SDHC card. I've read that the SDHC cards do a better job of recording video than the standard SD card. I hope this helped.

[lancecryor]

Thanks man and yes it helped. I'm planning to get this exact camera in a few days, and I'll look into those sdhc cards. Now I just hope that the camera is really 160$ now like I've been hearing lol thanks alot.

[geteasy]

and this is probably a dumb question...

does it records sounds...

cuz some digital camera couldn't record sounds...

[emtodawa]

great vid

[jgarcia19]

-You can choose how specific you want the color to be selected by tapping on the top of the circle or the bottom of the circle. You will see the number change on the bottom left.

-once you decided the intensity of the color you chose (is fun to play with the intensity) then press the DISP button again and it will take you back to picture taking mode.

-Once in picture taking mode you will see on the screen the color you accented and everything else will be gray or black.

[jgarcia19]

Part 2

[jgarcia19]

-You may notice that while you were setting everything up the image on the screen seemed to flash black and white. Well this is suppose to give you get an idea of what adjustments you have made to the color choice. I don't think it helps. It's best to chose the color then go into the picture taking mode and if you don't like it, repeat the first couple of steps until you like what you see on the screen before you take the picture.

[jgarcia19]

part 3

[sunnishinee]

Thank You so much, I will try to do what u wrote :-) Thanks!!! :-D

[jgarcia19]

-Turn the camera on while in camera mode.

-Press the FUNC.SET button in the center of the circle.

-Move the cursor to the right, you'll see the red box move.

-Move it until it is on the icon that has an eyedropper with the letter A for accent.

-Press FUNC SET again.

-Then press DISP

-A small box will appear.

-Place what ever color you want to standout in that small box.

-Than press to the left on the circle pad where the the Flower symbol is.

-The color you chose will appear in the box below.

[jgarcia19]

Part 1

[sunnishinee]

BUT i forgot to mention that the pictures do come out super clear with the zoom and normal setting, so i love this cam so far :-) Thanks to your vid for this great review!

[jgarcia19]

Sorry I meant to hit reply and I hit remove :-( anyway the Macro setting is best done under good lighting. Just make sure that when you take a picture to hold the button down half way until the focus box turns green. Then hold the camera still and press the button all the way down.

In the dark make sure that the red beam is on and that you set the ISO (push the up botton on the circle in manual mode) is on HI.

[skeefunit]

Great vid, thanks. The color exclusion pics are nice, is that a mode on the camera or done with software on PC? Thanks again.

[jgarcia19]

It is a mode on the camera.

[jgarcia19]

All the videos posted in the "Response Video Section" were also made with my Canon Powershot 1100IS (Canon IXUS 80IS). It's easy and fun I love it. Make sure to click on "watch in high quality" found under # of views, to get the best example of what this camera can do.

[sunnishinee]

hi again, I have a few questions, i would really appreciate your reply :-)

1. since the zoom doesnt work great WHILE recording, does it zoom before you begin recording the video?

2. I thought that the video is imported in the comp. as mvi, but i just found out that with this camera, the vids imported as avi file. so my question is how did u the video up on youtube with the avi file?? because when i used the avi and then converted it to wmv for youtube, the video was not even visible! THANKS!

[jgarcia19]

1. Yes you can zoom into something focus and then start recording and the quality turns out well. But once you start recording and try to zoom in, the clarity goes down. But if you start zoomed and keep it there, the video quality is good.

2.The video file is saved on the camera memory card as an .avi file. I used Windows movie maker to edit the clips. When finished editing I clicked on save to my computer.

[jgarcia19]

Then I name it, hit next, choose the option "other settings" then scrolled down and selected High quality video (large). It saves as a .wmv, and I upload that file onto youtube.

You can directly upload the .avi files without editing as long as it's not too big (time or size).

Hope this helped.

[sunnishinee]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! :-) I appreciate your help, super nice of u!!!!

[jgarcia19]

Anytime, good luck with your camera.

[harzregie]

thx

[sunnishinee]

THANK YOU for this great video! its so helpful!!!

[harzregie]

hi

can you tell me the name of the song?

it sounds great!

[jgarcia19]

Pachabel's Canon

[contourman]

Lol Pachabel's Canon. Clever.

[LivieEve]

Nice. :)

By the way, you said you has 2,000 pictures on it! Did you have to buy a separate memory card? If so, how many GB did it have?

Thanks for the video!

[jgarcia19]

2,000 total, but not stored on one card. I constantly download the pictures off of my camera. I have a 2GB SD card that I have from a previous camera as a back up card, but the one that is in my Camera at all times is a 4GB SDHC card. I bought it on sale for about $18.00. I've read that the SDHC has a quicker processing time than a regular SD card. Since the SDHC processing is quicker it does a better job of recording video and is faster at downloading from the camera onto the computer.

[LivieEve]

Thanks for that response! I appreciate!

[Stistrup]

By far the best demonstration videos i've seen, i just bought an ixus 85:)

[Raptoidef]

thanks for the great youtube video. its convined me to buy this camera!

[jgarcia19]

-I've had this camera for about 20 days and have taken over 2000 pics with it. The only set back I see to the camera is that is doesn't take quick back to back pictures when you have to use the flash. Having said that the FLASH works great in the dark.

-Other than that it has been a GREAT camera. It's small enough to fit in a shirt pocket and starts quickly to get those special moment pics. I also enjoy the video quality and time laps.

Check out pics taken by the camera found in "more info"sec.

[faviolaz]

This was awesome..im buying it!

[jgarcia19]

I think that they are still on sale on the Circuit City website for $219.

Good luck.
