There is something very comforting about a camera that simply takes very good snapshots—all you have to do is put it in Auto, zoom and press the shutter.

The 10-megapixel Canon PowerShot SD880 IS Digital ELPH is just such a camera and long-time DT readers know we’re big fans of Canon’s better point-and-shoots. And this one has a 3-inch LCD, a nice 28-112mm lens, optical image stabilization and an enhanced processor. With the holidays rolling in, with friends and family on the horizon, what better way to save memories than with some cool snapshots?

A great compact at a great price - expect to pay around $300
