(and SD780
) in video mode for the annoying "light bleeding". If you have an older (a year or more :) Canon camera and use it for video, you have probably seen this. It happens when you have bright lights in the video, like the sun, lamps or reflections. A vertical line is formed up and down from the light. Here's a video capture from SD800:
On SD1200 this is almost gone. I suspect all Canon cameras with the new DIGIC-4 chip will see this improvement. I have owned S3IS, SD700IS and they also had the bleeding. If you use video, this is a good reason to upgrade. Here is a video example of how it looks.

What SD card do you use? There is so much brands right now and speed ratings that it makes my head spin. I would like to be able to take at least 30 minutes of video and have a space for at least 100 pictures. And to do everything on highest quality settings. Is 8 Gb card sufficient for that?
Second question would be how long video capture can you make with PowerShot SD780 when you have full charged battery?
I use a Sandisk (not sure about speed rating, but it works fine). 8Gb gives ~60min in highest quality. So 30min would leave room for 1000s of photos :) (I think. A lot anyway).

Thanks, mate. My Powershot SD780 will arrive this week. I will carry it everyday in my pocket.
