The striking-looking Canon PowerShot S80 offers 8.0 megapixels for photo prints up to A2 size. The LCD is very large at 2.5 inches and has a wide viewing angle. There's an SLR-style Multi Control Dial and a real-time histogram display to let you judge exposure settings accurately. The camera has a wide selection of shooting modes and Special Scene modes. The My Colors option lets you apply colour effects in real time. XGA movies up to 1GB in size (depending on card capacity) can be recorded. There's a 9-point AiAF system for auto-focusing and the FlexiZone AF/AE option allows you to manually select an auto focus area and then adjusts the exposure automatically. The camera is PictBridge compatible. You can connect to a Canon SELPHY CP Series printer for additional print functions, such as printing ID photos. Optional accessories (see the column on the right) are available for this camera, including wide angle and telephoto conversion lenses, a High Power Flash and a waterproof case. Canon's ZoomBrowser EX (Windows) and ImageBrowser (Macintosh) are included for editing and organising photos.

Reviewed by Delancy M Hotalen on 30/12/2006 We have had our Canon S80 for about 4500 photos or video clips which is about a year and it is really great. We love everything about it except for one item that could give it a five star plus rating. The one item it doesn't have is anti-shake. The battery life is really good and every time we use this camera we are sure that we will have great photos or video clips. Rating:
