Canon PowerShot SD1300IS 12MP I am thinking of buying canon sd1300. Does it have red eye reduction function? Thank you!

Yes it has it, It works on red eye in three different ways, #1 Camera uses AF-assist beam (red-eye lamp) #2 Camera will try taking it out as it(red-eye corr) takes the picture. #3 While reviewing your picture push menu and go to red-eye correction and then push FUNC SET BUTTON once, that brings up the picture again and then push FUNC-SET BUTTON a second time and it will go to work on the red eye ... Seems to work well. I have posted some pictures for the SD1300 (Silver) on this site if that would help any...

The camera attempts to flash a light in your subjects eyes to reduce redeye. Any remaining redeye can be removed during the review process by creating a duplicate photo in which the redeye is reduced. Keeping the room lights as bright as possible helps.

Hi, I am just an amateur photographer but, if it helps here is some info on the Canon PowerShot ELPH 330 HS. I will "assume" that the HS in the model number refers to High Speed and the specs lean in that direction. The 330 HS has a shutter speed of 1/2000th of a Second, the sensitivity has an Auto mode and manual of the ISO from 80 to 6400 in 1 step increments, there is a Hi-Speed Burst mode. In the Hi-Speed Burst mode the recording pixels are 1984x1488. The shutter speeds are sensitivity ranges are Not as great as some of the digital ie., DSLR's. I am still experimenting with my new camera and have not as yet taken a picture specifically requiring "Hi Speeds". Maybe someone more professional can translate the specs into your specific requirements . Good luck and I hope this helps. JH

Built-in flash With auto, flash cancel and fill-in flash modes provides ideal illumination for crisp images. Red-eye reduction offers natural-looking eyes in portraits.

The SD1200 has already been replaced by the SD1300, which has a wider 28mm zoom, compared to the 35mm zoom of the older model. If you take photos indoors, the wider angle lens of the SD1300 is a nice feature, worth the extra money that the new model costs.

No it doesn't.. But the flash and diffuser make up for it in macro pictures so a red filter isn't needed.

The SD1200 does not have an explicit stitch-assist shooting mode built into the camera. However, you can still stitch photos taken with your SD1200: when you take a series of photos that you'll want to stitch together, be sure to provide a reasonable overlap between adjacent shots (you, the photographer, are always responsible for that, even with a camera that has a stitch-assist shooting mode ...stitch assist shooting mode simply tags the photographs with information that helps the Canon Stitch utility identify a series of photos intended to be stitched). Once you've loaded the shots onto your PC, the Canon PhotoStitch utility will correctly string them all together... Since the SD1200 didn't automatically tag each photo as you were shooting, you'll need to manually select the series of photos you want it to stitch, then let it rip. If you find it's a pain to pick out a stitchable sequence from thousands of shots on your memory card, get in the habit of shooting an oddball photo (e.g., a close-up of your eyeballs, or of the zipper on your jacket) immediately before you shoot a sequence you plan to stitch; that odd photo will give you a visual marker as to where a series of stitchable photos begins. Note also that it is the Canon PhotoStitch software that actually performs the stitching, never the camera itself. Ergo, you need to use the Canon photo utilities on their CD. Good luck, and happy stitching.

Red eye removal is available on the Lumix DMC ZS8. However, this setting will work only when AF Mode is set to face detection. See page 80 of the Owners Manual for Advanced Features that is on the CD for this model. It also states it may not be corrected "under certain conditions."

It does on certain settings. It has some intelligent lighting/focus settings and an anti motion setting that takes rapid fire frames without much distortion. It has produced some gorgeous photos. However, if you are wanting to shoot exclusively manual, you may not be thrilled with its recovery speed.

I agree with j-rob. Does anyone know how the newer model (HDR-XR500V) performs in low-light situations? They claim the Exmor-R sensor helps with these situations. It's too bad there's no easy or cost-effective way to upgrade. I'm not in the position to spend another $1k+ for a new camcorder that handles low-light.

No, it does not. Shutter speed is a big problem; it's fine for still shots not action shots and Auto doesn't help.

I have the Sony. (Took 3 thousand photos and video on an international trip). It is mostly fine, but there are 2 complaints with which I agree on the message boards. 1. Blue purple tint and glare from the lens coating in bright sunlight. 2. In general, not perfectly sharp pictures usually. (I have 5 year old Kodak 5mp that is often more sharp). The good...amazing motion stabilization. 'Able to take photos in almost any light condition without the flash!! I also have some good photos from moving vehicles. Very compact and no protruding lens or lens motor. Quick startup. HD movie is ok also. Acceptable battery life. FYI. There are assorted complaints about the Canons also. I have now read enough not to expect perfect photos from ANY point and shoot, but like you, I hate to drag around that Nikon. (You might try one of the new cameras with a bit larger sensor, like 4 3rds).

Does it still capture an image? even though it doesn't click? I usually toggle with the zoom or the iso. The AF may not be adjusting correctly as it does for the shutter to actually open. Is there a red display box(es) ? or the shooting mode may not be appropriate....

Yes, there is a feature called "OIS" which reduces camera shake. Also, when focusing the focusing rectangle changes from a red outline, i.e., Out of Focus to a green outline - in focus.

In 12 megapixel "fine" mode, shots can be taken 1 second apart, with or without flash (you could shoot in half a second without flash, but p&s; cameras prefer you focus first by pressing the shutter button halfway). There's a high speed still shot mode that'll automate this and other HS modes that'll shoot 15 fps or even 60 fps (but those last two modes are limited to 3 MP photos).

I have a Canon Powershot (SX110) that do not have the feature of Movie Editing (that is, cutting beginning or end of a clip). Upon contacting Canon, they told me that their engineers decide which camera gets which features. They did not tell me any reason. Actually, in many recent PS cameras the stitch assist is missing. I was also disappointed. But still, if you have software, you could do the same thing yourself. True, not that easy, but still capable. Other cameras lack color swap features, etc.Very weird that Canon does not feature everything on the newer cameras. And does not even make it clear to consumers before buying.

The LZ7 DOES have a pre-flash that causes the subject's pupils to get smaller, reducing red-eye, and it works in most situations. You need to select red-eye reduction in the setup menu (or just use Simple Mode), but it's super easy. Some fancier cameras also have software-based red-eye correction, as do almost all photo editing programs -- even the simple ones.I bought the LZ7 a few months ago for $100, and it's a terrific camera for the price, just like the LZ8. Wall Street Photo on Amazon is now asking $300 for the black LZ7, which is an unconscionable ripoff. Leave it to Panasonic to make terrific cameras at reasonable prices, and New York's sleazeball middlemen to gouge unwary customers.

Thanks very much. By the way, we have a Canon G12. I feel it too distorting both colours and proportions and of course slow between 2 clicks. What would you suggest to improve on "fidelity" and speed: A. Canon S100 over Nikon P7100 (and Olympus XZ-1?)?B. Olympus E-PM1 over Nikon J1? C. or Nikon V1 solves everything? PS. I have no Nikon lenses so I am not stuck on Nikon. Thanks
