Canon PowerShot SD700 IS

Overall ImpressionsConnectivity
Software
The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS comes packaged with a Canon Digital Camera Solution CD-ROM, although the specific version is not known. PowerShots in the past year have come with version 26.0, so it is expected that the SD700 will have at least that. That software included a stitching program for panoramas, viewing browsers and basic picture editing.
Jacks, Ports, Plugs
On the right side of the camera, there is a flimsy door that houses the DC in and A/V / USB jacks. The USB uses the 2.0 high-speed setup and the A/V-out jack is NTSC and PAL format selectable. The port door itself fits okay into the body, but has a very small thumb grip to pry it open.
Direct Print Options
From the playback menu, users can specify their direct printing needs. It is here where they can choose when, what and how many of each image to print. Users can select all of the images at once or scroll through and pick and choose. They can also add file numbers and dates to the prints. Index prints can be made as well as standard prints. There is a designated direct print button on the camera body that has a lighted LED when connected to a printer. Of course, Canon recommends using its own printers but the SD700 can connect to any PictBridge compatible printer. To attract some business, Canon threw in some incentives to use its printer lines. An ID Photo Print mode and a Movie Print mode are only available when photographers use the Canon CP and SELPHY Compact Photo Printers.
Battery The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS uses a rechargeable lithium-ion NB-5L battery. It lasts about 240 shots with the LCD on and 700 with it off. It comes with a CB-2LX battery charger in the package.
Memory
The Canon PowerShot SD700 IS comes with a 16MB SD card and no internal memory. It accepts SD or MMC cards, so users should plan on getting one or the other in addition to the tiny included card. The 16MB card is enough for four full-resolution pictures or an entire 6 seconds of 640 x 480 pixel, 30 fps video.
