Canon PowerShot SD430 Compact Camera

Canon SD430 Wi-Fi Digital Camera

Strengths: compact, wi-fi enabled, very good quality in picture

Weakness: wi-fi doesn't work all the time(not reliable)

The screen is small compared to other latest canon brand cameras but I got it for a good price. The picture quality is no way comparable to canon 700 IS or canon 800 IS but its decent. I bought the camera for the Wi-Fi capability but I having problems in establishing the connection all the time. But for the price I think this is an excellent camera with this feature set.

The screen is small compared to other latest canon brand cameras but I got it for a good price. The picture quality is no way comparable to canon 700 IS or canon 800 IS but its decent. I bought the camera for the Wi-Fi capability but I having problems in establishing the connection all the time. But for the price I think this is an excellent camera with this feature set. As other reviewer has already said, you need to update to the new firmware to get the proper connection and make it more stable. Over all I am pretty satisfied.

Wifi Capable Camera

Strengths: Wifi capable

Weakness: Quality picture under standard compare to other Canon brand

The reason I bought this camera becuase it has Wifi capability.
However, the picture quality far from what I expected from the great brand name Canon.
I think this camera is OK for beginner that need Wifi capability.

Nice camera w/ wi-fi

Strengths: A nice Canon 5M compact powershot digicam with wi-fi

Weakness: a little big hard to configure wi-fi to work

Got one from Amazon when this nice digitcam was on sale. As other Canon SD series digitcam, this camera also provides good quality shootings. 5M pixels and 3x optical zoom could satisfy most of daily uses. Played with it for around a month and liked it pretty well. The only problem is to set up its wi-fi connection with my wireless router,also with my laptop. But after upgraded its firmware and...

But after upgraded its firmware and reset everything, it works well now. But I personally still prefer to use SD card reader to transfer data between digicam and my computer.

sd430 wi-fi (capable)

Strengths: Little - nicely built p&s camera

Weakness: wi-fi capability - is more like a problem (wi-fi capable problem)

I got this camera yesterday - and I am testing it since. generally I like it's design and picture taking performance (flash works really well - somehow at close distance to the subject I got a good result on a fill flash (just forgot to turn it off) without overexposure). Wi-fi (capability) is a nightmare - it is a nice feature to have as a convenience item - but after a day of no success, I am...

I got this camera yesterday - and I am testing it since. generally I like it's design and picture taking performance (flash works really well - somehow at close distance to the subject I got a good result on a fill flash (just forgot to turn it off) without overexposure).
Wi-fi (capability) is a nightmare - it is a nice feature to have as a convenience item - but after a day of no success, I am willing to give up (such a convenient feature)
Bottom line:
Camera - good
Wi-fi - terrible

Canon Powershot SD 430

Strengths: Wireless

Weakness: Pricey

Unlike other ELPH digicams, the Canon Powershot SD 430 really does as it is advertised. This camera provides a unique approach to shooting without cables with th Wireless Print Adapter included in the box for wireless printing to any PictBridge printer and offering wireless remote capture from your Windows computer. Canon built the SD430 with a 5.0-megapixel sensor, which may seems a little low...

Canon built the SD430 with a 5.0-megapixel sensor, which may seems a little low these days. The only drawback would be the price.
