Advantages: light, easy to use, cute, great quality Disadvantages: digital zoom not that great
I got this camera for Christmas, after having researched cameras in this price range, from my dad. It was the most all-round excellent camera i found, with many of the others being let down by trying to have ridiculously large amounts of Megapixels, which the camera couldn't do anything with.
I found the quality of the pictures fantastic. It got a clear, non-grainy picture of my dog running just before sunset. The Digital macro function is absolutely ... ...quality of the picture. The zoom is good, but the digital zoom is not really worth using. I have not actually used it very much, because the quality of the picture is quite greatly reduced. This hasn't been a big problem for me though, because the non-digital zoom is very sufficient for all the pictures I have taken so far.
I bought a case separately and that would be recommended, because I'm not sure how long the huge screen would last if it was ...

...clearer than the Sony T10. For those that want a slim camera, i advise to buy the Sony series or the Canon Digital IXUS I Zoom which is so cute! And for those that don't mind, this camera is definitely the one to buy for those that love taking pictures. ...

Quick review of Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS Review ofCanon Digital IXUS 860 ISby

What a disappointment. Very poor colour, everything looks a bit grey. Photos with flash are grainy. My 5 year old Pentax Optio is much better, there is no comparison.

The battery life is excellent when you consider the LCD size it needs to power up! Copy batteries are only £5 on eBay and likewise with cloned Canon cases from China (which are superb value/quality but choose your seller carefully)
Overall: A nice camera and no regrets about buying ...

Solid as a tank Review ofCanon Digital IXUS 860 ISby
StevenAFC
Advantages: Outstanding Picture Quality, Good Features, High Quality Build Disadvantages: Quite Heavy.
Canon has yet again created a camera of superior quality with the Ixus 860 IS. The high quality metal finish is second to none, its a very solid camera with a good weight to it. Great features. Is good especially when used with the ISO boost. Really like the time-lapse video feature. Screen is very clear even in bright lighting and I don't miss not having a view finder at all. WA makes taking photos in confined spaces a breeze. Menu is easy to maneuver ...
