Canon Ixus 870 Is
Admittedly, appearance should be one of the last factors considered by prospective camera buyers but there is no doubt that the Canon 870 is a fairly attractive piece of technical equipment. The "gold" finished version is like a piece of jewellery. Size wise it's about the same as a packet of poker cards and that means it can fit into a handbag or pocket.
Beneath its good looks, the Canon Ixus 870 packs serious photographic technology. The lens is the equivalent of a 28 millimetre-112 millimetre, which provides a much wider angle of view than most of its competitors. Canon's image-stabilization technology was once only seen only on high-end models. Now also a feature of the Canon Ixus 870 IS, his means that with a bit of effort you can produce acceptably sharp images without a tripod down to about 1/25 of a second.
Also available in the Canon 870 is automatic face detection. This works well and also is able to detect faces in partial profile. There is even a gimmicky Face Self-Timer function that will wait for you to rejoin the group before it photographs the group. It has 19 scene modes as well as a handy macro setting and a 30fps VGA movie mode.
The Canon Ixus 870 IS boasts Canon's DIGIC 4 processing technology that promises less noise at higher ISO settings but still there is much noise at 1600 ISO which is not-bad considering the class of camera.
Take fabulous shots of majestic landscapes and awesome group shots with the Canon Ixus 870 IS and it's 28mm wide-angle lens. Viewing your favorite photos has never been so good with the awesome 3.0 inch PureColor LCD screen.
It’s not a “serious” Canon Digital camera in the usual sense and no one is going to mistake the Canon 870 for one. There is no manual mode and no optical viewfinder for example. If that's not a big deal to you then you can expect to be rewarded by some fabulous photographs from this little beauty.
