The Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS follows up on its predecessor by adding optical image stabilization and a little more resolution, bringing the total to 8 megapixels. The SD1100 also aims to be trendier than before with its compact body and availability in spunky colors: Rhythm & Blue, Swing Silver, Melody Pink, Bohemian Brown, and Golden Tone. It will go on sale in March for $249.
But while the SD1100 IS is an attractive package, the image quality leaves something to be desired. Color in the images it captures is good, but there is a lot of noise in images taken in anything other than bright light.
