Advantages: Small, light, easy to use, great pictures, cheap printing Disadvantages: Low battery warning doesn't give much time
...accessories available to buy from Canon including
- rechargeable batteries
- battery charger
- "all weather" (waterproof) case - needed for underwater photos in conjunction with underwater mode
- memory cards. Negatives
There are only two negatives I can think of: Firstly, it does not come with a camera case (although this seems to be standard for digital cameras). Secondly, we have been caught out by the battery running flat as it ... ...Other than that it is brilliant.
Conclusion
I would say that this camera gives pretty decent value and gives good quality photos for the average person. It has good specifications and a large range of features which makes it a very good deal. Overall I'd recommend it to anybody except for professionals (who wouldn't be asking my opinion anyway). If you want a small, low cost, decent quality camera it is worth looking at. It's easy to ...

Advantages: Brilliant shots, tiny, fast and stylish (steel)! Excellent movie and long-exposure modes. Disadvantages: Images a little noisy. Included software bloated (but ignorable).
...is, brilliant, with the typical Canon colour quality. The camera is clearly geared towards beginners and experienced photographers who want to take good, clean, quick shots. It has very good presets for lots of image modes (indoor, outdoor etc.), as well as macro modes and can even support long exposures up to 15 seconds. For the experienced photographer, just about anything worth tweaking can be tweaked, from ISO rating to exposure. Do not use this ... ...them. That's what professional cameras are for. This camera is perfect for quick snapping and casual use (parties, holidays, children, parents etc.).
The movie-mode is the best movie-mode I've ever seen for a camera - it can do 640x480@30fps, and 320x240@60fps (amongst others), along with sound, and will record until it fills the memory card. The 60fps mode is rather fun since you can then slow it down using third-party video editing software for ...

Advantages: Good size, high quality image, range of features Disadvantages: No case
I brought this digital camera at Xmas last year, and it has not even started to lose it's appeal yet!!
It is a small, asthetically pleasing camera; metallic grey, that comfortably fits into any pocket, and also includes a wrist strap, to ensure it cannot be stolen or lost. It is extremely light
At 4.0 Mega Pixels, there is more than enough picture quality in my opinion to take any picture imaginable, although because of the lens quality and other ... ...than a few other 4.0 MP cameras out there on the market. Memory cards for it are also relatively cheap, when considering the quality of the image being taken.
A simple slide-across button can transport you between take picture/take video/slideshow, and the menu button takes you straight to a main menu including picture settings for example, and even a menu for you adjust items such as a start up picture.
The buttons concerning options such as the ...

...but i didn't think "oh canon are rubbish, look how easily that broke", i was amazed at how little amount of damage there was to it after what was a rather devastating tumble. First of all the camera's looks, it really is tiny for the spec, it is very slim and minimalist. The buttons are well laid out and are labelled sensibly, making the camera easy to get to grips with. In terms of ease of use, the camera is excellent. For the basic user it really ... ...tag is also excellent, I picked mine up 6 months ago for aboyt 200 quid and even at that price it was a steal.

Once the programme has been installed onto the computer - which is as simple as following the instructions on the screen, the photo's are downloaded automatically as soon as the camera and the computer are connected to each other. The software is very user friendly.

Manufacturer's product description
Sleek and formidable; a masterpiece of high-tech miniaturization. The tiny 4.0 Megapixel Digital IXUS 40 is a seductive blend of extraordinary power, flawless styling and super high-speed processing. The 4.0 Megapixel sensor on the Digital IXUS 40 is ideal for prints up to A3 size. One secret behind the super sleek and slim body is a new UA (ultra-high refractive index aspherical) 3x optical zoom lens, which delivers outstanding, uncompromising image fidelity in an incredibly compact size. The large, high-definition 2.0" LCD screen allows immediate review of images and playback of very long high quality 30 fps VGA movie clips with sound (recording of up to 1GB movie files possible). You can even shoot up to 60 sec of fast QVGA action at 60 fps for slow motion review. Canon's DIGIC II processor links all key camera functions and includes a dedicated movie processor, driving fast auto-focus, outstanding camera performance and quick start-up times. Highly complex image processing algorithms necessary to deliver superb image quality are handled fast and efficiently to keep you ready for the next shot and to allow for rapid, smooth continuous shooting. iSAPS instantly analyzes the scene and makes adjustments even before the shutter release is pressed. It optimizes exposure, white balance and auto-focus settings in every shooting situation for consistently brilliant results. Six scene modes help you create great results with confidence in tricky shooting conditions, while a fully automatic 9-point AiAF system gets even off center subjects sharply in focus. Connect the camera to any PictBridge compatible photo printer, push the Print/Share button and within seconds, you'll be holding a full color print - it's that simple. When connected to a Canon SELPHY CP series printer, you can even print handy ID photo prints.
