Canon PowerShot SD430 - low end remote photography

Wi-Fi capability includes full remote control and capture; ultracompact design; excellent burst capabilities; low shutter lag.

For those who want fairly basic remote controlled digital photography, this is the one and only choice. However C|Net's testing reveals a comparatively poor image quality.

Not everyone agrees though. Steve's Digicam's also review the camera but find that it comes up to Canon's usual high standards.

The SD430's 5-megapixel Large Superfine images are awesome, with image quality being what we have come to expect from Canon's models. Our outdoor sample photos are sharp, show good overall exposure, and color saturation is very pleasing. There was slight softness around the edge of our images, but this amount is very minute and it's very unlikely the average users would even notice it. The Canon 3x optical zoom lens offers the a typical focal range of 35-105mm (35mm equivalent), providing a moderately wide angle field of view for interior and scenic shots, and telephoto coverage useful for portraits or to bring your subjects a little closer.
