Canon Powershot SD890IS

A few weeks ago in The San Juan Mountains my old trusty Canon Powershot SD700IS started making some bad grinding noises when the lens would retract. I have got dust in there before that cause a noise before, however this was not that noise. It was a sign that my camera was on it’s way out of commission. I had to get a new camera to replace it, since the last thing I wanted was to be out and about and have the camera completely die on me.

After some searching around, I settled on Canon’s new Powershot SD890IS which is an upgraded version of my old camera. It is 10 megapixels and has a 5x optical zoom built in.

The camera arrived today, so I took a few test pictures of Moab and Tellico 😉
