Pros: Small, Takes Great Pictures, Rechargeable Battery, Easy to Use
Cons: Haven't found anything I don't like about it
Overall: After using one of these for a couple of months at work I purchased one for the fairer half. She wanted a camera that was small, light, could take good pictures and would fit in her hand bag.
This was over two years ago now and the little camera is still going strong. The camera has taken over 6000 photos now and the work one is fast approaching 10000 pics.
The thing I like most about this camera is the size of it. Picture quality is fantastic at 7.1 mega pixels. I like that it has the rechargeable battery, nothing worse than having cameras that use AAA or AA batteries eating them like chocolates.
Pros: Compact, great battery life, great zoom, video feature. Can take up to 16Gb SD card. Uses universal SD cards.
Cons: Soom loses focus quickly, screen not as big a the new cameras.
Overall: Great camera, have had a few issues with the screen on the back however other than that it has been very reliable. Battery life is incredible, it lasted a two week holiday without needing to be charged. Taking over 2500 photos, not to mentions videos also.
Picks up the face of the person being photgraphed and focus's on them. Great lightweight camera that is worth the money paid for it.
No longer available brand new but would recommend if had the chance to buy again.
Pros: Have had this camera for 3 years and still love it. Good value, takes great photos. Easy to carry with you in pocket.Ours has been used and used.It has traveled all over the place. We have had no issues with it. Really good battery life & re-charge. Menu options are not too technical. Zoom function is good. Easy to view shots on screen at back of camera.
Cons: There isn't much I dislike. When I first bought it I was told by the salesman it would need the extra memory card so bought that as well. Its handy but the camera had plenty of shots without it. There is minimal warning when the battery goes flat camera just stops working. I think it is a little slow for action shots and generally they can come out a little blurry but then this camera is not really designed for highly technical or professional shots. Software is a little cumbersome until you get used to it.
Overall: An excellent family photo camera, easy to use, reliable and great value for money. Good battery life. Good quality photos, nice resolution to print and work with.
Pros: Good value, takes great photos, really good size - easy to carry with you in pocket or bag. Good battery life & re-charge options.
Cons: The software that comes with it is quite confusing, it's better to use Picasa or similar to edit the photos.
Overall: This is a great camera! It's really good value, it takes great photos and they are very good quality for a small camera - normally you would need a larger camera or SLR to get photos like these. There's lots you can do with it if you take the time to learn. Really love & recommend this camera!
Pros: Nice small camera that fits in your pocket. It takes good images and the battery lasts for a very very very long time.
Cons: The screen seems a bit fragile with slight scratching appearing.
Overall: I got this camera to replace the IXUS 30 that I was using. The IXUS 70 is just an improvement on the IXUS 30 I found. It takes very good photos however there are more impressive camera out there if you want to pay that little bit extra like the panasonics. The size is great and fits easily into your pocket. If you are looking for a very good take everywhere camera then this one is good and cheap.
Pros: So easy to use and so compact...great features
Cons: Haven't found any yet
Overall: We got ours at a good price.Have been very happy with them since .So easy to carry and use.Great sound effects too,so novel.But best of all the pictures are just great.Good colour.
