Hmm, I am thinking really it’s the comments that have helped me out more so than this review. I like the comments about missing features that people loved about the SD1100. I am looking for a cheap but good point & shoot so I was looking through the different SD models. There is now an SD1300. I am curious if the above people- Melanie- did you ever find the feature that singled out a color and made the rest of the picture black & white on the 1200? I am interested in if Coleen ever found the “feature to control the shutter speed”? Of the point and shoots Canon has WAY too many to choose from. The SD series, the A series, etc. etc. And, a lot of them the prices are similar on Amazon. So I am lost as to what to choose. Any help would be great!

Thanks,
Victoria

I do not like the 1200. They took many features away. In the 1100 you were able to edit your videos on the camera, you can’t do this on the 1200. Also on the 1100 you were able to select what you wanted to appear on your slide show (eg. All, By date, Category, Selection, Movies only,Pictures Only) which you can’t do on the 1200.

I am very sad about my new 1200 purchase… My favorite feature was the color feature… where i could single out a particular color and have the rest black and white.. its gone (or at least i can’t find it!!) I want to take it back and get my money back!! SO DISAPPOINTED. Had I known this I would have never got this one!

Thanks for all the various comments and responses here. I am also trying to decide between the two. My pal has the 1100 and loves it. I figured I would just get the most current version (1200) but I did read that the image quality was inferior than than the 1100. can anyone comment on thats? Somethng about the increase in megapixels took away from something else.

Are the chargers and batteries the same?
My 1100 broke.
I was gonna buy another on ebay, since i have an extra battery and charger.
Can I use the 1100 battery in the 1200?

Yeah John you are right. as older models when getting to discontinued always get expensive as there is less amount left in market. after sometime it will be removed from market. and only 1200 will be left. this is how it works

Curious why the 1100 is still selling for $70 more than the 1200, on Amazon, since it’s an older model that’s to be discontinued. Usually the price point of soon-to-be-discontinued models goes down. The marketplace is saying something here.

Hi Joe,
Thanks for the feedback and the missing points that were mentioned above. Actually this Comparison does not provide each and every aspect of the cameras but compare different specs to help user identify the better fit for himself. It doesn’t mean that we will discuss all the points user can think of. We will try to improve
