*Brand: The Canon Ixus 400 was obviously made by Canon, one of the top leading companies known for their quality and their always upgrading technology.
*Dimensions: The Canon Ixus 400 like stated in my advantages is very portable, the dimensions are as follows
2.0(H)x5.0(W)x8.0(D) --- cm
For someone like me who loves taking photographs and taking the camera everywhere would really enjoy this light, small camera.
Megapixels The Canon IXUS 400 has a remarkable megapixel of 4mb! This means the digital camera has much better quality and sharper images then other top camera's. This also means you may wish to increase the size of your photos quite alot before losing picture quality .
LCD Screen The Amazing camera also has an inbuilt lcd screen on the back. This lets the user take a picture and then review it, if the user likes it he/she will keep it otherwise they have the option to delete it. I really find this useful, if i`m running out of photograph slots on my memory, I can just
go through the memory looking for any photographs I don't like and then deleting them. The LCD screen can also be used to view your recorded movie (I'll write more about this later below)
*Optical and Digital Zoom are Available! The optical zoom can zoom in by 3x, making the subject appear closer, whilst retaining high image quality. I really love that advantage. The digital zoom can zoom in by 3.6x, which once again is quite 'jaw dropping'
*Internal Memory A bad point about the camera is that it has no inbuilt memory which is quite bad, this means people like my self have to buy memory cards (note: I bought many 32mb's cheap so it still paid off --- Compression on camera is really good.) BUT most suppliers give ONE free 32mb card.
*Compatibility The Camera works on both the mac and the PC, which is very useful as most people either have a pc or mac. The camera also supports many operating systems such as Windows XP and Mac Os.
*Software With the camera you are given some software. The software you get is used for editing and downloading your photographs/videos onto your computer. note: You also get drivers note: Canon always release new updates of their software/drivers so an advantage is You can go to their site and download.
*Battery The camera has a Lithium-ion battery, which is rechargeable (a charger comes with the camera) The compact sized battery has no memory effect, so they it can be recharged at any time.
* Macro mode for close focusing As the camera allows you to take up to about 30+ seconds of video clips it also allows filming close up without losing focus.
*Continious Shooting The Camera allows a user to take continuous snapshots whilst the button is pressed down. This is ideal for taking shots of some kind of event.
*LCD Off feature You may look through the eye hole without needing the aid of the lcd screen, this means you may turn of the lcd feature to save alot of battery power.
*Flash and its auto built in 'autoflash' The Flash on the camera can be forced to stay on all the time or off. To get creative results the camera's user may set it to an option on the camera to only come on in certain situations.
*Menu System Once the user has used the camera for a while the menu's system the user uses to navigate the controls becomes really easy to understand.
*Self Timer The camera supports a self timer, this allows you to take the picture of the whole family with yourself in it too. What I like about this function on the camera is that the flash starts bleeping indicating its set to self timer.
*Slide Show The camera allows you to preview all your pictures/videos in order of the pictures taken in a slide show.
*AutoFocus The Camera supports autofocus, which in a few situations I found really useful.
*AV Out connection Another advantage on the camera is that its got an AV (AudioVisual connection) built in. You use this port to connect the camera to your computer or you may decide to connect some other device to it. I.e. Virtual reality head set may be connected to it and you may view the photos/video clips on there.
*Other Features Its got inbuilt Voice recording, so you may save little memo's to maybe email them. Uses a Usb cable (faster to transfer files over) The camera supports five different speical creative effect modes. You may zoom into picture even after you have taken them on the camera. Built in Speaker allows you to listen to sounds in recorded clips Got Autopower off, useful for battery saving. Saves pictures in a Jpeg format, Jpeg pictures tend to be rich in high quality and really small (compressed)
------------------------------------------------------------------- Also To Note:
When I bought the Camera it was about 399 pounds but its dropped since by quite alot should be able to get it in the range of 100-250 pounds. The Memory card is a flash media card. I stated the mega pixel in my review (4mb). I`m sure my camera came with a 32mb card but I don't think It is inbuilt. ------------------------------------------------------------------- My Overall Feelings Towards the camera:
My overall feelings towards the camera is very positive, not just because of the beautiful features it has built in but the fact its very portable and cute. It makes me look unique ^_^. What I really like about this camera is the megapixel and that the fact that when you enlarge a picture it doesn't distort or lose quality. As i`m always putting pictures on my computer and editing them I found the really cool feature really helpful. ------------------------------------------------
Well I hope this review was useful...
