Very light weight. its easy to use, with logical controls.
digital zoom works better than expected - no loss of quality (how do they do that?!)

I have to say i was worried about paying for a camera that might not give me all the options required to give me a perfect picture. this camera is FANTASTIC!!!! I LOVE IT!!! It has so many functions, easy to use and is excellent value!!! i couldnt have asked for a better camera

A good compact - better than many

Pictures are good and sharp, and the colours are quite reasonable. My main camera is a Nikon D200, so I'm difficult to please, but wanted a pocket camera too.

Picture quality is surprisingly good, and batter life is great. Flash is VERY limited though. The only other quibble is that you need to remove the battery to charge it.

All in all, a great camera, but if you're planning on a lot of low light pictures, look elsewhere.

Ixus 85 IS

(3 out of 5) by G. Matthews on May 17, 2009 (England)
Not bad, a little on the heavy side and the flash is a little too weak, but overall a good camera with plenty of pixels and the anti-shake is a good feature.

Exelent quality Pics

Very good quality picture, exelent Zoom and very easy to use. Because it is 10MP you really need 8GB memmory card.
