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.

Smooth appearance and smooth performance

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Very convenient to use, beauthiful appearance
Cons: Flimsy 'doors', potentially scratch-prone
Opinion:
After many years away from Canon (my last Canon was a Canon A1/f1.4 - 35mm film camera purchased in 1978) and in the interim using Olympus and Nikon point and shoot film and latterly digital cameras - I have at last returned to Canon.

The Digital IXUS 850 is a beautiful camera to carry around and use. It makes me feel good to use it and it takes very good photgraphs. I was completely unprepared for the quality of the video it produces also.

So far I have produced about 1,000 photos over a period of 3 months. I have no specific criticisms other than the chrome-plated plastic doors covering the battery compartment and connectors which are flimsy.
