I recently purchased the Canon PowerShot SD980 a few weeks ago after reading through tons of reviews to find the camera that was the perfect fit for what I needed it for. My wife has a recipe blog and we needed a high resolution camera to take pictures. The SD980 is sleek and slim and equipped with a huge 3-inch PureColor System LCD touch screen. It’s responsive to your touch, delivering operation that’s as natural and intuitive as what you would find with an iPhone or iPad.Canon PowerShot SD980

The camera is small and fits in your shirt pocket with ease. This 12.1 Megapixel camera takes perfect pictures in any situation. We use this camera a lot and so far we have been very pleased with the picture quality regardless of the lighting situation.

Pros:
Compact Size
Excellent Video
High Quality Photos
Fast shooting speeds
720p30 HD video capture.
HDMI output
Fast Start-up

Cons:
The AV and HDMI covers are hard to open
No optical zoom while recording movies
Doesn’t come with carrying case

Overall: This is a great slim camera for anyone who wants the quality of a SLR in a point-and-shoot package.
Price Range: $199.99 – $266.17
