Canon PowerShot SD880 IS fulfills the promise of the wide-angle pocket digital camera, pulling it off with style. The Canon SD880 has larger buttons that are easier to read and operate, but not so easy that you’ll accidentally activate them. And the camera’s front flares out into a nice grip. The Canon SD880’s rear LCD has Canon’s new coating, which reduces glare and increases contrast, making for easier operation and more enjoyable playback. Optical quality is noteworthy for its overall sharpness, and the built-in image stabilization helps in low light. Chromatic aberration is an issue at wide-angle, though it’s quite common in pocket camera lenses. What’s impressive is the PowerShot SD880’s corner sharpness and relatively low distortion. Color meets the needs of the average consumer, offering punchy images, and incandescent performance is nothing short of admirable. The flash is weak at telephoto, but does okay at wide-angle. Most impressive is the Canon SD880 IS’s low noise and excellent noise suppression. Chroma noise is nearly nonexistent in shadows, with only luminance noise that looks rather film-like. The Canon SD880 IS is an excellent pocket digital camera, and an easy Dave’s Pick.
