Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS -nice little camera

Advantages: Nice little pocket camera with all the necessary features
Disadvantages: Can't really think of anything

...I am not an expert on digital cameras and this is just the second one I bought. So I cannot really compare the Ixus 80 with other cameras. Nevertheless, I really like it. Looks The Lxus 80 comes in Classic Silver, Caramel, Chocolate and Candy Pink in an aluminium body. It is small enough to fit in a pocket and can be tacken anywhere with no problems. As far as I can say it is very reliable and does brilliant pictures for a normal user. Features It works with 8 megapixels .The 3x zoom works for all the general snapshot moments. It comes with an Image Stabilization (IS moniker) to reduce camera shake. As far as I know this is not standard on all cameras yet, but becomes more normal in newer models. The lens is glass, so it?s definitely an advantage towards cameras with a plastic lens. You can certainly see that in the quality...

Classic Ipod 80G

Advantages: Looks good, easy to use, good for value.
Disadvantages: Freezes sometimes, repetitive use can hurt hand, screen a bit small.

...I found the Ipod 80G Classic looked good and I paid £157 for it and its been a good companion. I think its easy to use and it does exactly what I wanted. I play videos and TV shows from mine and I find that very useful as it is very good quality. I also use it to put photos on and its easy to show people and when I want to look at my memories. Also I know that my photos are saved on it and recently when my computer failed I found it really useful as I knew I had them on my Ipod. I like the games on it and the fact that you can buy games to put on it. I got my first Ipod before this one but I could not live without this one. It is like my little friend. I love listening to music and I think the sound is really good quality as is the display is also very good quality. However, you can only charge it up on the computer, but if your...

APPLE 80GB CLASSIC

Advantages: YOUR FAVOURITE MOVIES AND COMPLETE ALBUM COLLECTION IN YOUR POCKET
Disadvantages: SOUND LEVEL ON MOVIES NOT GREAT

...I bought my Ipod Classic around a month ago to basically be able to carry all my albums round with me at all times and have a couple of my favourite movies to hand if I am ever bored. I used to have an Ipod Nano and thought that 2 GB of memory would be plenty for what I needed but soon found that I couldn't fit no way near half of my albums on there and had to cherry pick my favourite songs due to there being not enough space available. Now having 80GB it's surprising how much you can actually fit on it. I currently have around 15 movies, a season of lost and over a 100 albums and am still well under 30GB. It's unbelievable. Unless you would like to put all your movie collection on to your Ipod then I can definitely assure you that an 80GB capacity would more than cover your requirements. The Ipod has a great new feature...

Apple Ipod 80GB

Advantages: Big memory, not heavy in weight, long battery life
Disadvantages: None that I can see

...I purchased an Ipod classic and I must say that it is one of the best purchases I have made. It has a massive memory and easy to use with iTunes. Movies, TV programmes, music and photos, everything is on mine and it is so easy to add and take off things you don't require for a while. I have 80GB and I have 600 photos, 520 songs and 60 movies on it and I still have 40GB to go. Absolutely brilliant, my friend has just bought a 160GB and it is so easy to use he doesn't need my instruction to use it for the first time. With a large compacity this is certainly one for all generations and is great if you are travelling because you can take advantage of the long life battery and watch films, tv or listen to music while you travel....

Ipod Classic 80GB

Advantages: Very Easy to use
Disadvantages: Unresponsive scroll wheel

...I decided to buy the Ipod classic so I could use it watch movies for when i went on holiday. First impressions where great, I loved the sleaker new design from the case even to the USB lead. The music quiz is a great improvement from the previouse model it's like a game show. The Ipod is easy to use as always no problems with putting music on there and no problems with movies. The movies themselves are of great quality and handy on long journeys to watch. The battery also lasts a long time if you charge it for long enough when you first get it but I found if you are watching a movie on it then reduce the brightness so the battery lasts that bit longer. The one major problem I had was the lack of response from the scroll wheel. A lot of the time it doesn't respond at all and then shoots all the way past the song you...

All you need to know about the Ipod Classic 80gb

Advantages: Too many to list... just read the review
Disadvantages: Barely any, maybe the screen is a tad small

...Up 'till about 2 months ago i was proud to be one of the few people who didnt own an ipod of some sort. I considered myself to be going against the trend, standing against the monopoly that is the ipod. How wrong i was, it wasnt untill i'd got through about my 3rd MP3 player in a year, that i decided enough was enough and i would go against my beliefs and take the plunge. One of the best retailing decisions of my life. Firstly, you dont realise the true elegance of this machine untill you have it in your hand. No picture shows the incredible lightness and the beautifully styled metal backing, you really have just got to try one out. Also due to the removal of the conventional hard drive from the previous models, its new flash memory based system is completely and utterly silent. The one drawback i have with the design is that is smudges...

A great mid-range compact!

Advantages: Canon lens, DIGIC processor, good reliability!
Disadvantages: Some of its competitors offer cheaper cameras in this range.

...The Ixus 80 is the compact warhorse of the Canon arsenal. Replacing the Ixus 75, it boasts 8 megapixels, a canon genuine lens (ill explain this in a second), Canons patented DIGIC III processor, and a cute design. The good thing about this camera is that its reliable, and that's what we all want in a compact. It's a typical point and shoot cameras, don't expect the manual ability of an SLR, but do expect a brilliant picture every time. The picture quality of this camera comes from the Canon Genuine Lens; the lens is made of glass, unlike some of the cheaper cameras, and therefore allows the light to hit the sensor more evenly giving a better picture. Some of the cheaper cameras have plastic or poly-carbonate lens', causing the light to bend before it hits the sensor, causing poor or wavy pictures. Also, the DIGIC III processor allows...

Review of Canon Digital IXUS 80 IS

This has to be one of the easiest Canon cameras to use

Advantages: Ease of use
Disadvantages: None found

...At the start - being PC illiterate - I assumed I would fail with these new fangled cameras. A box camera worked well for years; until they stopped making the film (127). Then when my 36mm camera jammed - and could not be fixed or replaced; the advice was to get a digital camera. My friends have a brand I found I couldn't use; so a visit to the shop and a whole range of cameras later - and the assistant came up with the Canon IXUS. What he showed me I still remember: Switch on - point - click. To view what you have just taken press this button. Zoom in & out ( wow ! ! ! ) . I am old, these buttons are easy to use with my fingers, the picture is clear and can be seen (more than I can say for my colleagues & friends cameras); and it is so easy to set up. Finally - the manual is also easy to follow - there is none of the "press these...

The N80 is Sexier than a Six-Handed Massage

Advantages: More advanced than all the gadgets in Q's laboratory put together
Disadvantages: Slide mechanism does not spring open and shut, battery life (again!)

...Introduction Once upon a time, in November 2001, ye olde company of Nokia announced its first smart phone, the 7650. Instead of separating these smart phones into their own, scary, techno-geek-type product class, Nokia simply positioned them as the most functional phones. They showed off the phone's most widely-appealing functions such as SMS, MMS and the (for its time) advanced camera function and hid away the scary, techno-geek abilities of its operating system. So it was, that Nokia cunningly planned the marketing for the 7650, and for the 26 other smart phones, of which the N80 is one, that were to follow in its wake. Now, there are many many normal, un-techno-geek-like people that have been looking forward for many many months (or even years) to getting this phone - myself included. Finally, I received my new N80 a month ago...

bravo apple team! apple ipod classic 80GB

Advantages: great quality.
Disadvantages: expensive

...WOW! The 80gb ipod classic is by far the best portable music player i've ever had! not only does it look great, you can store up to about 9000 songs on this beast! despite the fact it looks rather big and hefty, its actually quite light and you tend not to notice it in your pocket untill you dip in to find some loose change. the sound quality on it is amazing. you can get all sorts of equalizers for more bass, more treble, etc... to find the perfect sound for the song you are listening to. the only thing i would say is bad about the ipod classic is the touch pad, sometimes this can get stuck or it wont sense your fingers, so it can get abit annoying trying to scan your whole archive of music when youre struggling to get from the a's to z's! The headphones! if you really want to get the best out of your ipod classic then change...
