Canon PowerShot SD500 Digital Camera Review – Canon Digital Cameras – Reviews, Ratings & Comparisons. We used our SD500 for three weeks. Seemed to work well. Main thing missing is aperture or shutter priority for doing sport shots.
This is a good review by the way, shows that even with 7 megapixels, effectively you get 5 megapixels of resolution. That’s still very high. The big reason for the difference is the optics. It isn’t the sensor, but the fact that the camera lense is so small.
