Going on vacations usually require a digital camera on hand to capture the memorable moments. Most people usually go for a digital camera that offers the best picture quality and at the same time one that is easy to bring along. One such example of a portable yet quality digital camera to bring on vacations is the Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS.
The Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS is a digital camera destined to travel a lot. It is easily considered as a good quality point and shoot camera with features that are more than most occasional shutterbugs would look for. This digital camera is equipped with an 8 megapixel image sensor with 3x optical zoom and Optical Image Stabilizer features that makes image capturing more convenient. It is also equipped with Motion Detection technology that helps reduce blur automatically. Now you can take pictures of moving objects and people without having to guess who or what was in the photo once it is processed. Instead, you only get crisp and clear pictures that are expected on a Canon digital camera.
Aside from its 2.5 inch PureColor LCD display, the Canon PowerShot SD1100 IS is also equipped with a unique viewfinder that not a lot of digital cameras in its range do not usually have. The simple controls of the Canon PowerShot SD 1100 IS makes it a digital camera that anyone can use while on vacation. Priced at US180, it certainly is not that hard on the pocket, especially for someone going out on a vacation.
