Canon SD780 IS / IXUS 100 IS Samples

First published on: Tuesday, 24 March 2009

Last update (Apr 15, 2009): Canon Powershot SD780 IS / IXUS 100 IS test photos at infoSyncWorld.

This page is a collection of photo samples taken with the Canon Powershot SD780 IS Digital ELPH / Digital IXUS 100 IS digital compact camera, plus related image galleries, user pictures and other examples that I’ve come across in forums, online communities, blogs and related websites.

This should help in determining if the image quality of the SD780 IS / IXUS 100 IS meets your expectations.

Bear in mind that the majority of these photos are re-sized, and may have gone through post-processing, retouching or other edits. I just thought that it would be interesting to see, at a glance, what SD780 / IXUS 100 owners and users are shooting with their camera.

Full-sized images, where available, will assist with judging the image quality.
