Top quality piece of kit
Got this for christmas after much deliberation and comparing to other models. The picture quality is simply superb and puts our old 3mega pixel camera to shame. Got it with a 1gb memory card which seems to hold a near infinite number of pics and a lot of video. Video quality is great particularly the standard of sound which is excellent. There is a plethora of settings to try out and the image quality for indoors is very good, although a slight concern is that the anti-red eye setting doesn't completely do its job 100% of the time. The LCD screen is quite big and very clear and operating the camera is very straight-forward. The great little camera case you can get with it and the good, cheap memory cards are also another reason why you should buy one of these.

Pure Class
This is wonderful little camera that produces exceptional images. I'd be amazed if there is anything else in its price range that exceeds it.

Brilliant little point and shoot camera.
I was looking for a point and shoot camera that was small enough to take with me when I went out, everyone I spoke to recommended the Ixus series. I decided to go with the Ixus 60 and I'm glad I did! Initial impressions of the camera were good, it was a beautiful little thing that would fit in a pocket without any problems - not that you would want to let this little camera roam free around your pocket without protection. On the back the first thing you notice is the large 2.5" LCD screen which even copes well in bright light, this can be used to preview the pictures before taking but if your more traditional you do have the option to use a normal optical view finder unlike on the Ixus 65. My only complaint with the optical view finder is its very small and hard to use effectively, if this doesn't bother you and you're more than happy to use the LCD most of the time then it can't be faulted in this respect. The only other complaint I have with this camera is the lack of customisable options - it has the standard colour profiles, exposure time etc but for more advanced options you either have to dig or there not there but then again it is sold as a point and shoot. I bought mine along with a 2gb SD card and the Canon DCC-60 case (definitely worth getting if your getting this camera). The pictures taken by this camera are of a high quality and a useful feature is the ability to take widescreen resolution pictures - perfect for those of us with widescreen monitors. All in all a very good camera with very few faults, would recommend this camera to anyone who was looking for a camera that is small, nice looking and takes good quality pictures.
