Nice comparison Dude.. thanks alot for posting. I myself was confused which canon 10 megapixel camer i need to take but this post show me a clear picture and difference between these cameras. I will go for SD770 IS as this camera is cheapest .. 2.5″ LCD is fine with me… Optical zoom 3x is with most of the Elph cameras. Thanks again

Well done! I’ve been wrestling with a decision on which one to purchase. You’ve pinpointed the relevant issues and created an excellent decison-making matrix. I’m going to purchase the 770 not because it is the cheapest but rather because it packs the key features which I need. Thanks.
