Canon's New Powershot SD500 may be the ultimate Micro-Cam

Date of Review:  Mar 23, 2005
The Bottom Line: Canon's new SD500 provides a near perfect balance of excellent image quality, tough as nails durability, ultra-compact size, and intuitive ease of use.
Review: One of the digital imaging revolution's most fascinating high-tech product developments was the ultra compact digital camera. Canon has dominated that very popular marketing niche since the first micro-cams hit store shelves and the new Canon...

Canon SD500 : Tiny Camera, Big Shots, and Some Flexibility.

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2005
The Bottom Line: For an ultra-compact camera, this is a very good deal. High quality pictures with manual features although a weak flash and so-so battery life.
Review: My brother got lucky for his birthday... he's getting a new iPod Mini from me and a brand spanking new SD500 from my parents. Now he has stuff to make me a bit envious of him in the world of high tech... including his new Infiniti G35. Well, he...

Canon PowerShot SD500 / IXUS 700 7.1-Megapixel Digital Camera - I Like the SD400 Better

Date of Review:  Aug 31, 2005
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend Canon SD500 if you want a miniature, cool yet capable camera with 7.1-megapixel resolution that produces excellent...
Review: After trying out the 5-Megapixel Canon PowerShot SD400 Digital Elph and the 4-Megapixel Canon PowerShot SD300 Digital Elph, I just had to experience the 7.1-Megapixel Canon PowerShot SD500. The camera was difficult to get as it was sold out in many...

Changing my mind about Canon cameras or Unfortunate SD500 Experience

Date of Review:  May 15, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you want to risk your $$$ for a nice small quality camera, go for SD500.
Review: I have been a Canon enthusiast for many years. I have owned S200, S230, S400 (one of my favorite cameras), SD200 and currently SD500. I always enjoyed taking pictures with Canon products especially with S400 (for quality) and SD200 (for size). It is...

A great little camera

Date of Review:  Oct 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: Excellent pictures, high resolution, and ease of use add up to a terrific camera.
Review: This is the best compact digital camera I have ever owned. It's not quite perfect, but I am a very happy customer. It has been top rated by respected magazines and web-sites, and I have no reason to contradict them.

The SD-500 is very...

Workhorse Camera, good speed most of the time, gets a few blurrys

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: Great camera, hard to find anything better at the current price level. Newer canon models don't have as big of flash and seem to be built not as solid.
Review: The Canon SD500 is one of the better compact cameras on the market even today with newer models becoming available and the price point now makes it a best buy in many cases over the A series cameras which are larger and less sturdy in my opinion...

Canon SD500 vs Sony DSCP200

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you're looking at he Sony DSC-P200 and the Canon SD500, I think the Canon is the better camera hands down.
Review: I am probably one of the first people that now can say they have owned the new Sony DSC P-200 and the new Canon SD-500. In another review, I noted why I was not pleased with the picture quality of the Sony (lots of blurry pictures and unnatural...

a tiny point-and-shoot with a decent feature set

Date of Review:  May 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: The majority of users will love it and there's enough to keep the "manual mode freaks" occupied.
Review: I won't go into all the details of this camera, as I believe the other reviewers have done a good job of that.

I wanted to purchase a camera which had low shutter lag, a long-exposure mode (since I want to experiment taking constellation...

Very happy with this micro monster

Date of Review:  Oct 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: Canon quality with ease of use gives great pictures.
Review: I purchased the SD500 in May for a European vacation in July. I had about four weeks to get familiar with it's features and found that for any special requirements I could preset the manual or scene modes in advance and let the auto mode take care...

Simply Awesome!

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2005
The Bottom Line: Excellent choice for anyone that needs big camera quality in a tiny package.
Review: I've only had this camera for a few days, but felt the need to state just how awesome it really is. I have been searching for years for the perfect, most portable point and shoot camera, and that is exactly what Canon has provided.
