Canon IXUS 80 IS

Small, neat, very well put together, easy to use and smart looking little camera. Very good picture quality for such a small camera. This is my third Ixus *0 series after a 40 and then a 60 - even though I've never been disappointed, Canon still seem to manage to get them better with each incarnation! Slight gripes with the previous version have been improved, with a better A/V connector cover and (I think) an improved battery life.

Not much. It would be good to have better battery life, and a spare battery is definitely a good idea for long days, but then it does have a superb 2.5" so you can't have everything!

An Excellent Product, very easy to use with oustanding picture quality, easy to use and looks great too

Small but solid. Easy to use and upload pics.

Comes with memory card which only takes around 8 pics so need to buy another card with larger capacity (easy to do so no real problem)

slimline simple functions

no case

Point and shoot just what you need for fast no fuss snaps.

everything

no zoom on vid etc

The photographs are very sharp.

The access covers (memory card & USB cable connection) are made of plastic and are flimsy. it's only a matter of time until the weak hinges snap.

fantastic quality pics, very compact camera, can take with you anywhere

quite alot of menu options due to extensive features. however, once i got used to these found the camera brilliant.

Picture Quality. Light weight & small size. Battery life is excellent. Even the video mode is very good. Focusing easy.

I bought this for my mum for her 60th birthday, even she can use it!! This is easy to use, the screen is big enough for her to see and it looks great. Now I want one.

haven't found any

Very lightweight, and the picture quality seems even better than my last Canon camera which was dropped in the road and ran over !

The only slightly irritating thing is the slider to re view your pics, it seems too close to the video setting and sometimes ends up on that one. The layout on the switch is top middle and bottom position to look at pics-- Its difficult to describe, but it wouldnt put me off buying Canon again.

View finder as well as screen

No proper instruction manual

Very stylish, user friendly and light weight. LCD screen is excellent in all situations.

Doesn't come with carry case. The memory card provided with the camera is too small- making it necessary to buy another. Image quality is no where near as good as I expected. There is a grainyness on the photos and lack of sharpness, even when on the best possible quality setting. My 9 year old 2.0 megapixel camera I was replacing produces better pictures so very dissapointed!

Excellent camera. Lovely size to fit in handbag or pocket

view finder ! Easy selection of fictions Canon quality product !

instant review button needed to save time of using the switch to change functions

Clear prints small pocket size easy to operate

Great quality photos, robust build.

Easy to accidentally delete pictures!

build quality, ease of use for a beginner. excellent image quality

would like to see a zoom bar. would like a smooth zoom on playback rather than stepped

Image quality for compact size.

Excellent quality on photos, easy to use

Easily scratched

really easy to use, neat and good picture quality, the video is excellent and downloads to the computer are of great quality

none up to now

small; good looking; really good quality of pics

some features missing e.g. frames

Just very good overall.

I can't think of any.

Excellent camera, great all-rounder and at the end of the day... a Canon

None really.

Great all rounder, impressed with size, carry it everywhere. Unusual case colour.

Haven't found any so far.

Size & Style

3x zoom

All round great little camera.

Can't think of any.

Easy to use, with battery having a long life.

Image card too small, only holds 5 images

the face detection technology. rechargable battery so better value for money long term.

none spring to mind

-Easy to use -Great value for money -Came with a 2GB memory card which is great -Has face detection which allows you to take a better more central picture -Has a great zoom feature

-Went on holiday took a couple of pictures in the sun and they came out a bit hazy but better than other cameras i suppose
