Impossibly slim, excruciatingly gorgeous and with performance to match its devastating looks. The 5.0 Megapixel Digital IXUS i zoom - Canon's smallest IXUS is also its most...
more...glamorous. A 5.0 Megapixel CCD sensor delivers photo quality prints up to A3 size, with plenty of scope for image cropping. A compact ultra-high refractive index aspherical (UA) 2.4x optical zoom allows for improved framing without sacrificing quality. When you need to get close, Canon's precision optics combine with digital zoom to provide impressive 10x magnification. Canon's DIGIC II processor ensures fast, responsive camera performance and superbly rendered colors. iSAPS analyzes each scene and optimizes key camera settings even before a shot is taken. These technologies combine to provide superb, immediate results. The DIGITAL IXUS i zoom comes with a convenient Camera Station. It is the base for quick and easy direct printing, PC uploads and battery charging. Supplied with its own wireless controller and video out connection for slide and movie shows straight from the camera to your TV. Choose from 16 shooting modes to expand your potential. Seven Special Scene modes help you deal with tricky settings. Apply custom color effects in real time with My Colors. Movie mode lets you record VGA quality movies with sound. Play back to family and friends by connecting to a TV through the Camera Station. The Intelligent Orientation Sensor automatically rotates portrait shots before playback and converts the Func/Set button into a handy shutter release when the camera is held vertically. Connect the Camera Station to any PictBridge compatible printer for effortless printing. Push the Print/Share button for a full color print within seconds. Connect to a Canon SELPHY CP Series printer and take advantage of advanced print functions, such as printing ID photos.

Full review
The Canon IXUS iZoom has an inbuilt excellent 5 megapixal CCD that will allow the user to enlarge their images up to A3 size retaining crystal clear quality.

The camera houses a 1.8-inch LCD display which is ideal for viewing back the photos you have just taken. The unit has a 2.4x zoom and a combined 10x optical/digital zoom

The camera has 16 scene modes that allow the user to refine the shots they have taken. The scene modes include sports, and underwater. The IXUS also has built in editing functions such as red eye reduction. It sports an insanely wide range of pre and post-capture options, allowing infinite levels of customisation and perfection of your images.

The camera is USB 2.0 compatible and comes with a very small 16mb SD card. I recommend you upgrade the card to at least 256mb to get the most out of your camera. I purchased a 2Gb card that can hold over 600 of the cameras very finest quality snaps. And we're talking pretty excellent quality.

In the box you get, the camera, a strap, a 16mb SD card, rechargeable lithium battery, a power adaptor, an AV cable, a docking station and a USB cable. The camera is extremely impressive with little weight (120g) and very stylish design. The camera produces very impressive results both from still images and movie clips, with which it captures excellent audio also.

The only downsides I can see are that the optical zoom could be greater - ironic considering the name of the camera and the camera must be in the docking station to be connected to either the mains power for charging, a PC, or a AV device (such as a TV). However I am reluctant to mention any faults as I want you to buy this camera. It makes me so happy. I promise you won't regret it.
