CNET Review
The Good: Excellent image quality; solid build quality; speedy performance; optical viewfinder; face detection.
The Bad: No manual exposure controls.
The Bottom Line: Small size, excellent image quality, and a solid, though not extensive, feature set make the SD1000 a great choice for a compact camera.
