Canon PowerShot SD630 Digital Camera User Report by Skywalker2010
The new PowerShot SD630 features a lot of the same digital ELPH design elements we’ve seen over the years, but the SD630’s design is enhanced by a slightly more elegant appearance. Super thin and sleek, the SD630 PowerShot Canon Battery Charger controls are extremely low profile and subtle, directing your attention back at that good-looking case. The rear panel sports a very large 3.0-inch LCD monitor that’s clear and bright, leaving room for only a sprinkling of control buttons, and eliminating the optical viewfinder entirely.
The SD630 and its cousin, the SD600 are virtually the same camera, though with a few modifications on the SD630’s design. Both feature 6.0-megapixel sensors, 3x optical zooms, Canon’s DIGIC II image processors, and all the high ISO capabilities that make them ideal for shooting in low-light without a flash. However, at just $50 more than the SD600, the SD630 offers the larger LCD monitor, and its more stylish body will definitely turn more heads.
Canon’s DIGIC processors have become so accepted as the standard bearers of speed it’s almost easy to take them for granted. If you’ve ever used a camera from a competitor with a lesser processor you’ll recognize the difference right away. The Canon SD630’s predecessor, the SD450, also used DIGIC II and speed results are about the same, with the new model powering on in 1.3 seconds. If you refocus the SD630 PowerShot Canon Camera Charger, shutter lag is virtually non-existent, clocking in at 0.074 second. Shot to shot, the SD630 outperforms most cameras in this class, registering about 1.62 seconds for large/fine JPEGs with the buffer clearing almost immediately after each shot. In Continuous shooting mode, you can snap off just over two frames per second on the SD630, which is about average for this class; but since the buffer clears immediately, you’re ready to go again much faster than most rival models. Since speed issues are the number one digital camera complaint by consumers, the Digital ELPH series and their DIGIC II processors working in concert with Canon’s nine-point AiAF focusing system have consistently been a good antidote to sluggish snappers.
Overall navigation is fairly straightforward and hasn’t changed much from previous ELPH PowerShot Canon Charger models. Manual control is still fairly limited; and don’t be fooled by the M for Manual setting, which gives you just limited control over things like exposure compensation, white balance and various photo effects, not true control over aperture or shutter speed. If you want more manual features, look to Canon’s A-Series cameras which offer great creative options but are not as small and sleek as the ELPHs.
