Disadvantages: 3.7 Optical Zoom is lacking; Competition cameras can shoot more FPS

...and have vowed to buy Canon IXUS Camera's next time around - even viewing the image at 100% the images are sharp and clear of noise all the way up to ISO 400 (ISO 800 and above show noise) The video capabilities also impress me although there is nothing that seperates Canon from the comptition in this category - you can shoot video at 1024X768 at 15fps or 640X480 at 30fps along with some other lower resolution options The camera also has some very ...
