It's not perfect but I would recommend it.
I had purchased the Canon PowerShot SD980IS 12.1MP Digital Camera with 5x Ultra Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 3-inch LCD (Silver), but was not happy with he picture quality in auto mode. I tend to upgrade my pocket camera every year, so have used a variety of PowerShot cameras over the years. I traded the SD980IS for the SD990IS and am VERY pleased. Picture quality in ALL modes is superior to anything I've used in the past in the PowerShot family. Colors are vibrant; pictures are sharp. Manual and semi-manual modes are easy to use and provide great flexibility.
I ended up purchasing a refurb model from one of the Amazon associates, and am quite pleased. I've never tried a refurb, but other than a fingerprint on the case, the camera was perfect. Highly recommend.
Ok, my title might be going a bit overboard, but I can honestly say it's the best handheld/compact camera that I've ever owned (& I've owned a LOT over the years). It looks great, it's comfortable in your hand, & it takes amazing pictures! I'm sure some professional will say it's nothing compared to SLR cameras, & in many ways they're right. But, for something this small that fits into your coat pocket, it's a hard little camera to beat!
I am a Canon guy. I love most of Canon's cameras. I purchased this SD990IS to replace my SD660 that was dropped and broken. I was very excited about this camera when I ordered it from Amazon. I thought it would be the end all beat all point and shoot camera. First I did not like the build quality. It feels like a plastic toy Sponge Bob camera. When you push on the power button it feels like it is going to break. I would have never purchased it if I would have seen one in person before. Second big drawback is the slow shutter speed. I though that I could get over it but after missing the shot time and time again I had to get rid of this camera. It took close to a second to snap off the shot. On the plus side the low light pictures were great. Also the ability to zoom in on a 14.7MP picture will blow your mind. It takes GREAT pictures. Its just slow.
The Canon Powershot SD990IS 14.7MP Digital Camera with 3.7x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom is the best little camera I've used yet. From micro pictures to large landscape shoots this Camera is the best bang for your buck.
