Besides do I really have time to go and touch up tons of photos when my other cameras don't have this problem. I've also tried turning it off and same issue. Anyone else have this problem and find a setting combination to fix it.Everything else about it is great for a pocket point&shoot, just don't use it for night-time photos of people without great lighting. Not sure if anyone else has this problem but even with the no-red-eye mode turned on all of my pictures have horrible red eye. I've tried the red-eye correction post processing feature and it works maybe 50% of the time, and only at the right distances.
I've purchased my 3rd one for a reason. I've had two previous versions of the PowerShot, one being the 750. I've had this camera for about 6 months now. It is a great little camera that is small enough to go anywhere, but packs enough MP's to take poster sized pictures.
I purchased this camera because of its sleek design and small size. *The video quality was poor anyway and far inferior to HD video *The shutter speed is WAY too slow. Although it is capable of taking great photos it has too many flaws. I purchased the canon powershot SD790IS 10 MP and have owned it for six months. Canon needs to produce a more reliable (and faster)camera if it wants to lead this market. It broke on my camera, I cannot use the video mode.
The SD790IS was my casual camera for events when I didn't want to bring my 5D. I love canon products but I do not recommend this product. This cannot be corrected for and has ruined several great shots. The main problems with the SD790IS are: *Red Eye is really bad with the flash. *Heavy artifacts with flash use and low light conditions.
Initially, the camera was great. Continous shots are impossible with the built-in flash, so many great shots are lost. *The sliding plastic button to change over to video is cheaply constructed. I recently bought a canon 5D Mark II and love it. It can be corrected but not always.
The panel the holds the strap disconnected. I'm giving the camera two stars instead of one because at least the photos turned out decent and many of the extra features on the camera were nice. The camera is refurbished now and I'll likely dump it for some other model and brand. I sent the camera in for repairs and Canon wanted to charge me for "mishandling the camera" - due to the dent caused by the camera falling. The rotating menu button is also awkward and the movement between photos jumpy.Overall, I was very disappointed. The camera fell off my arm to the ground and dented.
The video looks decent and you could zoom in fairly good. You know this review will probably come back and bite me because I want to sell this camera and get rid of it. I've own this camera for almost a year and it literally began to fall apart. The top button to switch between video and camera is easily bumped and you end up taking a video instead of an important shot.
Beyond that the camera turns itself on quite easily when it's in your pocket. There were also some other "adjustments" that had to be done (I noticed that the side panel is now screwed into the camera). This camera went to hell in less than a year. The physical construction of the camera was just lacking.
I never had them fall apart like this. After some complaining, the company agreed to repair the camera "as a courtesy" on the warranty. I had my Nikons for years and beat them up. The body of the camera started to separate.
I typically use NIKON cameras but decided to try out Canon. Apparantly, the company found that the optical assembly was inoperative and had to be replaced. When I called Canon they told me, "Yeah, we've had a few problems with that wristband panel."I also had some LCD monitor problems with strange spots showing up. To their credit: The camera was totally refurbished in less than a week and returned.
It's definitely worth the price & so much more. I LOVE this camera. I love the look of it, the features it has.basically, just everything about it.
