Advantages: Quality Shots, Build Quality, Ease of use.
Disadvantages: None.

The Canon Digital IXUS 75 is a 7.1 megapixel pocket sized digital camera, as soon as i recieved this camera i was very impressed with the build quality, it feels very solid to handle and looks like an expensive camera. The 3inch LCD screen is superb although there is no viewfinder this is not a problem for most people. Battery life is excellent, i have taken 200-250 shots on a 1hr charge. There is a fully automatic mode, good for people who want ...
...indeed and there are several manual options for more adventurous photographers out there, one very cool feature is the portrait mode which softens skin tones giving you nice portrait snaps, the camera has red eye correction so that you can fix red eye but only in playback mode, still a nice function though, overall i would say that this one of the best compact cameras on the market in this price bracket and you would be hard pushed to be disappointed, ...

Advantages: Light/pocketable high quality all purpose compact digital camera. Minor improvements over A710is
Disadvantages: ISO 1600 poor, Camera Windows software worsened, no wireless file transfer

...of the people. According to Canon Digic III should also allow to obtain faster start-up time, faster autofocus, quicker shutter response time and also it should give better power consumptions. I have used the A710is for some months and to be honest I have not appreciated any real improvement on any of these features. I do not want to say that nothing has been improved but in my opinion it is hardly noticeable. - 19 shooting modes against 10… are ...
...have still the feeling that Canon engineers should work a little bit more in the reduction of buttons with more clever software programming/overall logic. Pity there is not a dedicated button for ISO setting. ISO can be set from ISO 100 to 1600, Auto - ISO 80 to ISO 200 or High Auto ISO 400 to ISO 1600. I have found particularly useful the button that allows to manually compensate the exposure from -2 to 2 stops with 1/3 steps. Most of the parameters ... Read review

Advantages: Image Stabilizer, Small, excellent pictures and movie,
Disadvantages: none yet - but do carry round spare batteries

...I had a great little canon snappy many years ago, and what sold it to me over the other options was the image stabiliser; because I tend to get camera shake. As mentioned by other reviewers you do need to buy some good rechargable batteries (I use 2650mAh which are currently lasting quite well, I do keep spare ones with me when I'm out but haven't needed to use them yet). You do have the option to switch off the display to conserve battery life. ...
...you buy a much larger SD card, (I got a 2gb one which means I don't have to worry about space) you can get one for about fiver from Amazon (less from some other suppliers). I'm not a buff as I said, but am very impressed with the picture, the video quality and the capabilities of the camera in general. I even let my mum take some video (she has parkinsons) and even with that amount shaking the film was clear enough to watch, albeit abit wobbly. ... Read review

Advantages: good colour, high quality photos, good price
Disadvantages: delay in next photo

...A family friend had a Canon Powershot camera and they recommended it to me a lot, I took a few pictures on it and actually quite liked it and the picture quality. It wasn't too big and apparently an ok price too so, off I went to Amazon's website to see their best offers. I looked up their range of Canon Powershot's and I swayed between the A550 and the model up the A560. After much consideration I opted for the A560 as it was a bit more expensive ...
...a blue screen with white Canon text and it makes a little noise not too annoying or long. Another thing I really like about this camera is the photo quality, it has really good colour that is just accurate and like the eye can see, whereas some camera's I've had with a flash can make people look awfully pale and insipid. The features on the turning wheel at the top are manual, auto which I usually keep it on, portrait for face shots, landscape probably ... Read review
