I just bought the IXUS 800-IS (which is the Powershot SD700-IS in the USA) for my daughter and I got to play with it fro a few shots. I have had the IXUS 900 Ti for a couple of months now and I really love the camera. To tell you the truth, I may like the IXUS 800-IS better than the 900, but I’m not really sure. That image stabilization really does make a difference. I know that my camera has 10 MP, but the 6 MP 800 appears to have equally sharp images in my very limited testing. In other words, I am indeed very impressed with the “IS” feature.
I have used my son’s A620 and played with my brother’s A630 a bit, so I have an idea what the A640 would be like. It does have a larger sensor (almost double the size) than the IXUS 800 does, so you would expect better image quality, especially in lower light. (This is where I am hoping that my 900 actually beats the 800, since it also has the larger sensor.) I like the tilt-out monitor, as I have used that extensively on my Nikon Coolpix 5400. It adds a new dimension to your photography. You can use the camera over head, at waist level, at sidewalk level, or even “around corners” aiming to the side as you appear to be looking straight ahead. It’s very helpful for desktop macro photos.
I really like the pocket-size of my 900 (which is almost identical in size to the 800 you are looking at) and the A640 is quite a bit bigger. You can’t put the A640 in a pocket at all. I have taken about 200 pictures with the 900 Ti and I have not had to charge the battery yet, so I am quite satisfied with battery life. I expect the 800 to do about as well, although the “IS” might drain the batteries faster. You have the option of using “IS” in a continuous mode or only for the instant you are pressingthe shutter, which is how I set up my daughter’s camera. (Of course, you can turn off the “IS,” but I am not sure why you would…) I assume that continuous “IS” would drain the battery faster.
The use of “AA” batteries in the A640 is handy in case your rechargeable batteries die at an inconvenient time. You can just pick up a set in almost any store at all. My son gets amazing life out of the Energizer e2 Lithium batteries, though. He doesn’t bother with rechargeable batteries, because he says he’d just loose the charger if he took it out of the box.
I don’t have personal experience with the other two cameras, so I can’t comment on them.
Based on my experience with various Canon cameras, I will say that the A640 might give you techincally better images under some circumstances and it will definitely allow more cropping due to the 10 MP image size, but the “IS” on the 800 is an amazing thing. The A640 will also allow shutter or aperture priority shooting, which is a handy thing for near-total control, but the IXUS series does allow EV corrections, so you can effect some degre of exposure control.
I have handled several examples of the A5xx series, but not the A570-IS. It could squeeze into a pocket. It seems like it’s a bridge between the A640 and IXUS 800-IS with some features from either end. It only has 2 “AA” batteries and I have heard that they run down faster than the cameras with 4 “AA” batteries. It is a bit cheaper than the other two cameras.
Among the three Canon’s, I’d give the IXUS 800-IS the nod because the ultra-coolness factor. I like the “IS” and I like the smaller size of the IXUS better than the A570-IS. You mostly have to decide if you can live without aperture and shutter priority. I have my dSLR to use when I really care about creative control, so I don’t miss it at all on the 900 Ti.
Plus, TomTom and Petra both like their 800′s. (SD700)
