I bought the camera to replace my broken after years gone IXUS 50 and am totally disappointed. Although the handling and operation are used to simply and clearly. Extremely dissatisfied I am with the abysmal image quality even with large file size. The ancient IXUS 50 has essentially made better pictures than the new IXUS 132 seems to give up the ghost after only one year use, the image quality is getting worse.
The quality is even much worse than my cell phone camera - and that's saying something already with a BlackBerry.
Conclusion: who even has a reasonably functional mobile camera, this camera needs under any circumstances.
