Canon PowerShot SD960 IS (blue)

Small ; good lens specs ; excellent photo color, exposure

Wide-screen LCD ; odd controls or lack thereof ; purple fringing in photos

While its design is less than thrilling, the Canon PowerShot SD960 IS still has great photo quality to fall back on.

The Canon PowerShot SD960 IS is a follow-up of sorts to the very popular SD880 IS featuring the same 28mm wide-angle lens with a 4x zoom, but this model jumps to 12 megapixels from 10. Sample photos: Canon PowerShot SD960 IS In most cases photo...

Canon PowerShot SD960 IS

By PJ Jacobowitz

The 12.1-megapixel PowerShot SD960 IS ($329.99 list) is Canon's first, and the only model in its latest Elph line to get a widescreen LCD. This slick little point-and-shooter still gives you the option to take pictures in the traditional 4:3 aspect ...

Fast. Captures HD video. 16:9 LCD. HDMI-out. Long battery life. Produces less noise in images at ISO 1600 than its predecessor did

Pricey. Quality problems at outer edges of images

The 16:9 LCD on the Canon SD960 IS lets you frame your shots to match the format of HDTV and widescreen laptop displays, and it records excellent HD video. Unfortunately, its price and some image-quality issues prevent it from being a point-and-shoot ...

Like the SD780, the SD960 showed less noise than the previous generation of Canon PowerShots, including the SD790 and the SD1100 at a high ISO of 1600. Apart from its screen, the SD960 is extremely fast and records dazzling HD video that you can...

Canon PowerShot SD960 IS Review

By Adam Crawford

At first glance, the Canon PowerShot SD960 IS is your typical point-and-shoot, featuring the easy-to-use controls, smooth navigation, and basic operations most casual shooters expect. Although the SD960 is not your stepping-stone into DSLR photography ...

Well-built and very stylish ; Exposure settings work accurately and well ; Active Display technology ; HD video ; Consistent and fast autofocus ; Proficient ISO performance ; High-res 2.8 inch LCD

Overly saturated default picture settings ; Image quality when magnified shows considerable grain and noise ; Smudge Proof" LCD attracts lots of smudges ; HD video quality isn't great

ELPH to have a 16:9 widescreen display and feature a unique user interface that uses a control dial like an iPod, allowing you to scroll through the basic operations of the Function Menu by twisting the dial in a circular fashion. Other standout ...

Canon Digital IXUS 110 IS

By Rod Lawton

The Digital IXUS 110 IS isn't the smallest compact camera on the market, but you won't find many that are better-looking. Boasting an understated design and elegant control layout, it also shoots excellent 720p videos, sports a good screen and offers ...

Good styling and finish ; clean and elegant control layout ; great 720p HD movie mode

Unremarkable picture quality ; vague and lightweight navigational controller ; pricey

The Canon Digital IXUS 110 IS is a very cool-looking camera. You'll probably fondle it so much that you'll rub the paint off, but it's really pretty ordinary inside. The HD movies are good, admittedly, but you could get the same still-picture quality ...

ConclusionThe Canon Digital IXUS 110 IS is a good but pricey camera. The Digital IXUS 110 IS will set you back around £270. Yes, the 110's got 12 megapixels, but it doesn't really offer any more real-world definition than the much cheaper Digital...

Canon IXUS 110 IS

By Alexandra Savvides

canon ixus 110 is review: The 110 IS sacrifices quite a lot in order to accommodate its curious styling and additional features. Images aren't as great as we'd expect, but that doesn't mean they're not any good — you'll just have to do a bit more ...

Wide-angle lens ; HD video recording ; HDMI output ; Good automatic scene detection

Odd styling ; No optical viewfinder ; Front cover is prone to scratches and chips ; Noisy images at lower ISO levels ; No optical zoom during recording

The 110 IS fills in the gaps neatly where the 100 IS struggled, but is it enough to earn our unreserved praise? Click image to enlarge (Credit: CBSi) There's a fair amount of barrel distortion at the wide end too which is fairly disappointing, and...
