I got this camera a few days ago and already I am disappointed. This isn't a good sign so early on, but really and truly I feel ripped off. Let me start by saying that if you're going to buy any camera that's decent these days, opt in for a DSLR. They are far worth the investment.

I bought this camera on impulse and without having made too much research. I'd had Canon cameras before so knew that the quality would be good and just went with this one as it was in my price range - I was not disappointed!

I was at a flamenco club with minimal lighting, and the pictures turned out great without me having to adjust ISO or anything. - The smart auto feature - I found this really useful because I didn't have to adjust to a different programme every ...  Read the complete review

Canon's line up in the IXUS series has always produced winners and this one continues that trend. Having owned this for seven months since it's UK release it has produced some wonderful photos from my honeymoon and an assortment of other vacations. Pros - Excellent day time and night time shots (you can manually set shutter speed to 10 seconds) - Clear photos with little noise at high ISO's - HD video is very clear with good sound - The camera is, typically with other IXUS cameras, light, small and very portable - Easy to use, with clear concise instructions - Special modes such as fish eye effect, ability to swap colours ...  Read the complete review
