Advantages: Compact, great image quality

Disadvantages: The small size means you've got to be careful not to drop it

When talking about compact digital cameras, they don't really get much more compact that this offering in the well established Canon Ixus range. This little beauty is a joy to look at & will fit into even the smallest of pockets being only the size of a credit card with the thickness of a matchbox. But does this small size result in a comprise in performance?

The answer is no not at all, it is jam packed full of features & performs extremely well against the competition. The image quality on this 12 megapixel camera is superb & one of the best I've ever of any camera in this class, the photos produced are so crisp & sharp with the colour being well defined. As well as the auto mode offered, you can be a bit more creative with your photos by playing around with the variety of manual settings on offer.

As well as superb images, this camera also takes videos with audio in High Definition. The device can directly be connected to your HD TV via an HDMI cable to play the videos back. When I did this, I noticed, how well the videos come out with the high resolution showing alot of detail & sharpness within the videos. These videos however can take up alot of space, so the resolution can be lowered if necessary.

Another added bonus to this device is the addition of a viewfinder as well as the large LCD screen. It's available in a choice of black, red & silver, I personally prefer the black.

This camera offers the best of both worlds, offering a great digital camera which performs brilliantly in a size so small, you can carry it anywhere. The small size however means that I'm worried about dropping it easily, so always hold it via the wrist strap to prevent this.

If you're looking for a compact digital camera, you can't go wrong with this, it completly outperforms the competition!
