About the Canon PowerShot SD870 IS (Digital IXUS 860 IS)
The Canon PowerShot SD870 IS (Digital IXUS 860 IS) arrived in August 2007 as a compact with a 1/2.5-type CCD of about 8 effective megapixels. Its lens covers 28-105 mm in 35 mm terms, a 3.8x optical zoom, with an aperture range of F2.8-5.8.
The 28 mm wide end is paired with a 3-inch screen on the back. The body measures 93 x 59 x 26 mm and weighs 205 g.
