The Bottom Line Though it's still an excellent camera, some aspects of the S70 now lag behind its competitors'. The Canon PowerShot SD 850 IS has just about everything you'd want in a point-and-shoot. The Canon PowerShot G9 is a solid enthusiast digital camera for those who want something compact to complement a dSLR. While the Canon PowerShot SD870 IS doesn't have an optical viewfinder or manual exposure controls, it captures beautiful images with its wide, 3.8x optical zoom lens and ranks among the top compact cameras we've seen.
