Very good Ixus

I was looking for a small, compact digital camera that I can take with anywhere.
As a diehard Canon - fan I bought the new Canon Ixus 130is.
After the first test images in low light, I was very surprised by the positive result.

In the resolution L 14M 4329x3240 and the setting 'Fine' beware
my 4 GB SDHC memory card approximately 986 pictures on it.
The battery is fully charged in just over 2 hrs., And is enough for about 352 pictures.

In P - mode there are various settings to the most diverse.
To photograph shooting situations. Among other things, the interior shots. At this
Setting is doing the camera in low light conditions
very nice, bright images.

What I also liked a lot, is the macro mode.
In the automatic program, the camera automatically focuses on macro at once to get an object closer. The images are crisp and sharp.

Who does prefer photographed in automatic mode nothing wrong,
because the camera adjusts the appropriate situations itself.

The handling is very simple, the menu no problem. The
Display is a good size and also clearly visible in sunlight.
It can be adjusted even in the brightness.

The IS is reliable and who sometimes want to shoot a short film provides easy
to order films. For a short film, the result is quite okay.

Also a fine feature if you want to show the pictures taken is:
Do you have to not only turn on the camera. It is sufficient if the
Playback button presses. Already you can pass around the camera and see the pictures without the extended lens interferes.

Negative points are not yet come across me, possibly the zoom lever,
which is but a little more complicated to operate in this model.

Anyone looking for a compact digital camera in a sleek design,
I can only recommend the Ixus 130is.
