I recently brought this camera for $249 dollars. My previous digital camera was the G2 4 megapixels I brought in 2001 for $849 dollars. I decided to buy this SD 780 as a backup camera and for traveling. The camera is wonderful.

Hi just bought this at the weekend, wonderful little camera, does everything I can ask of it and the size means I’ll actually take it places.
Obviously the picture quality isn’t perfect but still very good, I can’t imagine any potential SLR buyers would be coming this way any how. 5 stars from me.

Responding to mehlam. You need to increase the ISO and use Program to take action without flash. Experiment with ISO 400 to 1600 depending on lighting conditions.

Footnote for mehlam. You should aim for a shutter speed of 1/500 or faster for most action. You can check the shutter speed before taking by pressing the shoot button halfway.

Hi ya
Yeh you can turn sound on and off using function then tools. Not sure bout the black and white though, have to test it out when i get home
Do you get sound on your videos? is it my camera or the memory stick I’m using? the sound works when pressing buttons (ie makes a beeping noise) but it doesn’t record/play sound for video?
