Extra features for casual snappers: Canon Ixus 850 IS.(digital cameras)(Product/service evaluation)
As we've come to expect from Canon's Ixus family of cameras, the 850 IS is beautifully constructed. The only slight blemish on the otherwise sumptuous exterior is the rather flimsy battery/SD card slot cover. That minor grumble aside, the Canon feels as good as it looks, with a decent, comfortable grip.
The 7.1Mp (megapixel) sensor is capable of providing images a shade over 3000 pixels across, or movies at a TV-friendly 640x480. As well as good resolution, the 850 benefits from a lens upgrade, with a healthy f2.8-5.8 aperture spread and an unusually wide 28-105mm 35mm equivalent range from the 3.8X optical zoom.
The 850 features integrated optical image stabilisation (hence the 'IS' in the name), permitting the use of slower shutter speeds when things turn murky. If that's not enough, the 850 can raise the ISO to a maximum of 1600, beyond the range of most compacts and into realms inhabited by digital SLR (single-lens reflex) cameras.
The Canon incorporates a 'face detection' system, which seems like the new must-have feature. The Canon cleverly identifies a person's face in-shot, and sets the exposure and focusing accordingly.
