Conclusion
The Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is an attractive compact point-and-shoot. We like the large three-inch LCD on the back and the easy-to-press buttons. With only three stops on the mode dial this should be a simple camera for beginners to pick up and shoot.The SD880 IS lacks the manual features found on the SD990 IS, along with that models; optical viewfinder, and drops to 10 megapixels from 14.7. We did find the SD880 easier to use, but given the lack of manual features and lower megapixel spec we would have expected the Canon PowerShot SD990 IS to cost less than the SD990 IS. Instead it's expected to be available at the same $399.99 price point. Unless the price comes down between now and release we feel like the SD880 IS overpriced, whatever its positives.
