IntroductionNext: Page 2
ComponentsThe Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is a small and attractive compact point-and-shoot camera. Prominent features are the relatively large three-inch LCD display and the sizable, comfortable buttons on the back.
Front
The front of the Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is very clean. Aside from the lens the only other features are the auto focus assist lamp at ten o'clock just next to the lens and the very thin flash found at the top right.
The front of the Canon PowerShot SD880 IS is clean and simple.
The back is dominated by the three-inch LCD display. This is a very healthy size for a camera this compact, larger than its big brother, the Canon Powershot SD990 IS. All the controls on the back are found to the right of the LCD. The 4-way controller with a rotating dial surrounding it sits in the middle. The 4-way provides quick access to ISO (up), Macro (left), Burst/Timer (down) and Flash (right) options. Above the 4-way are two large and comfortable buttons for Play and Print. Below are two additional buttons that mirror those above for Menu and Display. The only other feature on the back is a small indicator light that sits between the LCD and controls to the left of the Play button.
The large 3-inch LCD is a welcome feature.
The Mini USB port and lanyard are
all you find on the sides.
The top of the Canon PowerShot SD880 IS has, from right to left, the speaker, shutter button with surrounding zoom toggle, On/Off button, mode switch and a pinhole microphone.
The mode switch on the top has just three options.
On the bottom you'll find the typical tripod mount and a door that opens to reveal the battery and memory card.
