2100is - Canon Powershot Reviews

The Canon PowerShot SD 1200IS is an affordable, lightweight and easy for the amateur to use, but has enough features for the more knowledgeable photographer to get a precise shot.With features such as Smart AUTO and 10.0-Megapixels of resolution, printing large-size images with clarity and detail is a breeze.

Available in six colors (silver, dark gray, orange, green, pink, and blue), the SD1200-is adorably small, but still comfortable to use. Controls are standard Canon. A switch on the back moves you between the three shooting modes: Smart Auto, Program/Scene, and Movie. To its left is a Play button above a four-way directional pad centered by a Func Set button. Below that is a Disp button for changing the information shown on the LCD or shutting it off (there's a viewfinder if you want to save on battery life while shooting) and a Menu button. A shutter release with a zoom ring and power button are on top. The only issue with the arrangement is that the buttons are all flat, so if you've got big clumsy thumbs there's a chance you'll have trouble accurately pressing them.

Navigating the menu system in SD1200-IS is straightforward. The Func Set button opens a simple context-sensitive shooting option panel, while the Menu button sends you to more general shooting controls and operational settings. The only thing that's a bit funky is accessing half of the Scene mode options. At first you'll only see the most common scene selections, but when you get to the far right of the list, you'll have to hit the Disp button to open a secondary list of scenes. If you're not paying attention you might miss the fact that you have all the other options available to you.

With camera manufacturers throwing an increasing number of features at consumers, it's very easy to skip over simple models such as the Canon PowerShot SD 1200IS.
