    Advantages Advantages Easy to use, fun size options

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Would be even better if smaller

    This is a smart little APS camera (Advanced Photo System) this basically means that you can take different size photographs. The way it works is you have to change the size by sliding a switch to the desired size such as (P) Panoramic, (C) Classic or (H) H print which is in between. After you do this you can see the new size through the viewfinder. A useful tip is that the clever APS film allows for you to choose at the time of printing what size you would like your prints to be. For example if you have taken many different sized pictures you may want to print them the classic (6x4 inch) size ... more

    Advantages Advantages Beautifully packaged. Fine build quality.Good results

    Disadvantages Disadvantages APS is an expensive format. Camera pricy.

    I have been the proud owner of a Canon IXUS ever since launch - "Gadget Man" strikes again. Its tough no-nonsense stainless steel design gets many admiring glances from photographers and others with an eye for design. Forgetting the looks, and fag-packet dimensions, it's also a damned fine little camera, with its zoom lens and pop-up flash, with an anti-red-eye option. Its optional remote control is wafer-thin so be sure not to put it in the back pocket of your jeans, and then sit down. APS itself is relatively expensive film type compared to 35mm, but at least the Canon's exposure system is ... more

    Advantages Advantages Tiny, good quality picture, good build quality, sexiest camera around

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No mid-roll change and pathetic attempt at red-eye reduction

    I bought the Ixus mainly because it was just about the smallest camera I could find. (That it was also the cutest as well was a bonus). It performs well, with a good zoom range for it's size, and picture quality is excellent. Battery life is also extremely good. The so-called red-eye reduction is pathetic. Rather than have a number of smaller flashes before the main one, the Ixus has a tiny little white light that comes on, which achieves nothing useful. With the Ixus, you can't remove and reload load films which are partially exposed, which is, after all, one of the key points about the APS ... more

    Advantages Advantages Easy to use and reliable

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None

    The Cannon Ixus APS camera is without doubt the best camera I have ever used. I looks smart, is compact and easy to carry and makes taking pictures so simple my six year old can produce good results. Simply switch it on select the format select the lens point and press. The focussing is taken care of the flash is automatic and the results are stunning. It has red eye reduction, date and title options a timmer facility to take pictures of yourself and it really is the greatest camera in the world ever. ... more
