Canon Digital IXUS 40 > Reviews

Advantages: Compact, Good quality images
Disadvantages: AV/Digital Out and battery cover

The Canon IXUS 40 is one of the best digital cameras I have ever used. When I ordered the camera I ordered a 512meg card to replace the standard 32meg card supplied with the camera, as I was planning on taking the camera away on holiday for 3 weeks and would have no way of downloading the images. 512meg card holds: Super Fine - 2274x1704 --> 245 Super Fine - 1600x1200 --> 487 Super Fine - 1024x768 --> 843 Super Fine - 640x480 --> 1837 Super ...

Advantages: great pics and easy to use, lots of features and good value
Disadvantages: bigger than some other cameras and less pixals

All in all a great little camera with great features and good picture quality, could do with a better zoom but for this money you can't go wrong. You can now get more mega pixals however and also more zoom capability. It looks great and is very easy to use with clearly marked controls and a easy to refer to instruction manual. I have had mine for 4 years and i have given it plenty of abuse but it is still in great working order so they are obviously ... Read review

Advantages: Takes very good pictures
Disadvantages: Small viewing screen

Advantages: Compact, Light, Good screen size, Excellent photos
Disadvantages: None really! Except didnt come with a case.

I love this camera, I bought mine nearly two years ago and I have no need to upgrade. It is very small, infact it is the same size as my Siemans SL65 mobile phone, it's light and so easy to carry around, you can just pop it in your pocket and hardly even know youre carrying a camera. The Screen is a good size, I love being able to zoom into the picture once it has been taken. The battery life is good although once it starts bleeping you don't ... Read review
