Canon PowerShot IXUS60

Excellent – I love this camera! For my first digital camera, I chose this because of its size and it's very lightweight. I also chose it because of the larger LCD screen compared to other models available at the same time. The camera took great photos and it's very easy to upload them directly to your computer. Easy for a first time digital camera user and those who are not so technologically savvy. The video mode is also great. I used this camera for over three years and did not experience a single problem with it. Highly recommended! Love the small size, large LCD screen, good quality pictures.

OK – I was disappointed with this camera after having an earlier IXUS. They seem to have increased pixels but decreased quality with these cameras. Very hard to get good quality images unless in full daylight. Small, easy to use. Good size display for a compact. Bad image quality - got better pictures out of the IXUS II which only had 3.2 MP.

Excellent – Great, easy to use camera. This is the first time I have purchased a cannon and have found it to be 100% easier to use then my previos olympus and the picture quality of faultless. Battery life lasts approx 2 hours, but is easily recharged. I love all the extra effects that can be implemented either before of after taking the picture. Continuous shoot mode and panorama mode are also very handy benefits of this tiny but packed full of features camera Easy quick start up. Easy to navigate buttons. 2.5 inch screen, many shooting modes for different environments.

fits easily into pocket
