 ... sunniest conditions and in bad weather conditions. Both conditions do not really have a influence of the camera as it still delivers great quality. The only problem I had was taking picture in the night which is a problem with almost every camera. I always used the pre-set options, but after trying our some manual setting I realised that the camera has got even more potential. Give it a try - experiment at the beginning a bit and soon you will know which setting to use when. Design It is just great! The camera ...more

Express Review on Canon Digital Ixus 850 IS

A brilliant camera for simple point and shoot. It takes excellent pictures without having to fiddle through constant adjustments. The Image stabilisation works really well and almost everything on the camera is very easy to use. The screen is big, bright and easy to see. On top of all this, it really looks good as well and has a reassuring feel of quality to the build. We took it on our honeymoon to South America and have some great memories as a result!

My only (small!) gripe is that there is no indication of the battery life until the battery is about to run out! so that's not so helpful..

General I bought this camera in the summer (07) especially for my holidays in egypt and i was more than satisfied with the performance of the camera. The quality is very good especially for normal users (i.e. family); professionals might have a different opinion; Not only the size but also the user friendly interface are clear benefits of this camera. Quality I took pictures in the sunniest conditions and in bad weather conditions. Both conditions do not really have a influence of the camera as it still delivers great quality.
