As a former Canon employees I have always CANON minded. I have 40 used for many years the Canon IXUS. Unfortunately, this was broken by a fall from his motorcycle. As a substitute, I have decided for the above product. Surprisingly good is the picture quality, the video function is excellent. If someone wants a small camera with a gr0ßen output volume, then it is properly served with the IXUS 127 HS.
