“The SD550 is a well-built and versatile compact camera. It offers both simplicity of use when set to the Auto snapping mode or one of its 9 Scene modes, and the capability to capture more complex images when set to the Manual mode. Furthermore, it offers an excellent image quality when photos are captured using the Superfine compression level and the maximum 7-megapixel resolution. And now, at the same price as last Fall’s SD500, the SD550 adds a 2.5 inch LCD monitor: that’s a good deal.”

So says Megapixel.net in their Canon SD550/IXUS 750 review.

From its elegantly curved profile to its superb functionality, the ultra-compact PowerShot SD550 Digital ELPH rightfully owns the top spot in the Digital ELPH line. The camera’s significant design achievement is matched by advanced imaging.
