This page is a collection of photo samples taken with the Canon PowerShot SD970IS / IXUS 990IS digital point-and-shoot 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 Powershot SD970 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 SD970IS owners and users are shooting with their camera.
Full-sized images, where available, will assist with judging the image quality.
