PC Magazine has reviewed the Canon Powershot SD550 and has awarded it their Editor’s Choice. Excellent image quality, improved auto-exposure, great flash coverage, a large 2.5-inch LCD, better video quality, an ergonomic design, and a fast 1.6 seconds boot-up time are the key points that made the camera deserving of the award. Their only complaints are insufficient manual controls and its menus could’ve been more user-friendly.
