Digital Camera Resource Page reviews the Canon PowerShot SD1000 Digital ELPH:

“he PowerShot SD1000 is an ultra-compact camera with retro styling reminiscent of the original film-based ELPH. It’s made of a mix of metal and plastic, and well built for the most part, with a few exceptions. I’ve noticed that the ELPH series cameras are getting more and more plastic these days, which I don’t consider a good thing. The cheap plastic door over the battery/memory card compartment feels especially flimsy. That said, the camera is easy to hold with one hand, and there aren’t too many buttons to confuse you, though I wish they weren’t all flush with the back of the camera. You can get the SD1000 in two different “trims”: silver or black. The camera has a run-of-the-mill 3X zoom lens, equivalent to 35 - 105 mm. The LCD has been dramatically improved compared to previous ELPHs, with vibrant color, fingerprint resistance, and very little glare. Kudos to Canon for continuing to include an optical viewfinder — most of the competition ditched them long ago.”
