 Small and slinky March 13, 2010
H. Hundal
I recently bought this camera for my holiday and I was unsure whether to get it or not becuase there are a few other cameras on the Market which are probably just as good. However this camera did not disappoint and I am glad that I bought it. I spent a lot of time comparing cameras and found that this is one of the cheapest cameras in it's range in terms of functionality, quality and shutter speed etc. Amazon is also selling it at half it's original price.
When I got the camera I was amazed at how small it was it's very slinky. People with big hands may find the buttons slightly fidley but it's still usable. The screen is very big for the size of the camera with stunning display and colours. The quality of the photos and video is superb. I bought the ixus leather case to go with it which it fit snugly in to.
The camera is very easy to use and it recognises conditions well enough to adjust the settings on it's own which is a huge plus. I'm really pleased with the camera and am glad I bought it!.
 Excellent little camera March 6, 2010

An excellent little camera. My only minor quibble, and this applies to Powershot camera I own, is that there is no printed user manual in the package nor does it appear that you can get one from Canon. I appreciate that there is a pdf version in the package but this is not much use when your using the camera away from a computer or if you don't have access to a computer. Hence I have only given the camera 3 stars
AN EXCELLENT CAMERA! February 22, 2010

This is my review of the Canon Ixus 100
THE CAMERAS BODY:
The IXUS range are well known to be sleek and beautiful - this camera really does prove it.
It is also very slim and very small.
Despite this camera being very small, the camera overall feels well built and solid(although the battery cover does feels a bit flimsy, but it's no biggie.
I am a bit disapointed that the camera has only a 33mm wideangle lens with extends to a weedy 3x optical zoom.
THE BACK OF THE CAMERA:
The buttons on this camera are flat and not that big so if you have big fingers it might be a bit hard the use the buttons, I think for most people they will fine.
The camera has a 2.5" LCD screen and above that there is a TINY little viewfinder and you do have to squint a bit to look through it but it's still good for taking pictures in bright sunlight and for saving the battery by turning the LCD screen of and framing for pictures in the viewfinder.
IMAGE QUALITY:
The image quality on this camera is excellent!
The 12.1 megapixel photos it takes look crystal clear and the colours are vivid and natural.
And the 720p HD video is sharp and detailed but sadly you can't use the optical zoom once you've started filming.
ISO PERFORMANCE:
Images remain noise free until ISO 400, after that the images get quite noisy and at the highest ISO, (ISO 3200) images are reduced to 2MP resoulotion and the picture is very fuzzy.
NEW FEATURES:
SMART AUTO MODE: This is where the camera chooses the right settings to suit the scene.
I-CONTRAST: This feature reduces the shadows in the photo so you can see the subject more clearly in tricky light conditions.
BLINK DETECTION: The camera detects when a person has blinked and then it tells you that someone has blinked.
FACE DETECTION SELFTIMER: The camera only fires the shutter when a new face is detected meaning that the photographer does not have to rush to get into the picture.
CONCLUSION:
Overall I think the camera is great and I would defintely recommed to anyone
 IXUS 100 IS February 21, 2010

This camera was a replacement for an earlier Ixus and again takes outstanding pictures, its ultra compact and very simple to use. Its ideal to have in your pocket to take anywhere. Not quite up to a digital SLR but not far off.
Really nice camera but has some serious focus issues February 18, 2010

I bought this to replace my ixus 880 which doesn't have HD recording facility, I was extremely happy with it and have some great family photos.
As I said, it was so I could have the HD recording facility that I opted for this camera, however after using it for a week in Spain I have mixed reviews.
Firstly the video quality is great, just what I'd hoped for and the annoying 'wind noise' that the old one suffered from even in moderate breezes seems to have been rectified.
However, as mentioned in other reviews, many of my photos seem to be out of focus (or rather I suspect that what I think i'm focusing on is not what the camera thinks is in focus) despite the focus boxes. Even in bright sunlight, some seem to be just slightly off, and 6 out of ten taken inside at night under tungston light are very poor indeed.
To give you an example, I took two pictures of my daughter who was stood 2 feet way from me within seconds of each other (as on the first had her eyes partially closed), the first was perfect and the second was not, despite neither her nor me moving.
I must say that I feel a bit disappointed with many of the pics, it may be that the focus settings are not set correctly, I will play with it further and report back, however I feel with the exception of the video, I have taken a step backwards.
On the plus side when the focus is correct, the pictures are stunning from such a small camera.
As mentioned in other reviews, it almost feels like it is faulty, but I hope I can sort it out as it's great looking camera.
Also I didn't see the problem with poor battery life experienced by others, in fact I never had to charge it for the whole week, and it was still showing full battery when I got home.
One big plus is the startup time, which is nothing short of amazing, by the time you have pressed the power button it's ready to go, great when you need to take a quick snap.
The buttons on the back are a little on the small side, and you do occasionally press the wrong one, but I soon got used to it and I guess this is to be expected from a camera this small.
I really don't want to be too negative as I'm a real Ixus fan, but I think the 'out of box' focus settings really leave a lot to be desired, and whilst I may be able to work around it, I fear that people who just want a point and shoot camera may be disappointed.
**Update 26/2/10**
After playing with the camera and it's settings I have got to the root of the problem.
When using the 'auto mode' the flash will often not fire in situations where it is required. There is a warning on screen too tell you of impending camera shake, but despite the flash set to auto it doesn't always go off.
Set the camera to manual (the slider should be in the middle), and go into the menu (page 80 of the manual)and set 'AF Frame' to 'centre', then set 'AF Frame Size' to normal, the result is a box that appears in the centre of your screen when you press the shutter half way down, which when set on the item or person you want in focus gives you a superb picture every time and complete control over the camera, plus the fill in flash goes off every time.
Since using it this way I have not has a single bad picture and I'm happy again.
I have emailed Canon to see what can be done about it, watch this space......
Hope this helps people
