Very good

7.8

out of 10

View score

The good: Good focal range for lens; quick performance; optical image stabilization; attractive design.

The bad: Few manual controls; extremely noisy photos at ISO 1,600.

The bottom line: A slim, stylish body, a wide-angle lens, very good photo quality, and snappy performance make the Canon Digital IXUS 850 IS a great point-and-shoot.

Not so easy Dial button but good to have one



Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Stylish, Easy to use, Good image quality
Cons: Slip in Dial button, extra sound while zooming in or out
Opinion:
Concern with its dial button, I feel it a little difficult to use. (Should I mean very difficult?)
As I'm a little sweaty person and my hands are easy to sweat. Its dial button let me feel difficult to dial.
Almost every time when I sweat, I ask my friend to dial for me or I just use my clothes as a cover and dial it.
And while I shoot video I use to zoom in and out and the zoom button sound is also recorded. because is it too loud or is it too close with mic?

But anyway, I like this camera. it has good resolution/pixels and IS features and easy to use :)

excellent camera



Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: excellent pics.
Cons: less flash range
Opinion:
Beautiful camera to look at and own. Small and handy form factor. Excellent pics' in low light and normal lighting the pics are fantastic! Image stabilisation is very good. Only major con is that there is no remaining battery life indicator. One of the best cameras imho.
