Excellent

8

out of 10

View score

The good: Impressive performance and image quality; optical image stabilization; face detection.

The bad: No manual exposure controls; no optical viewfinder.

The bottom line: While the Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS doesn't have an optical viewfinder or manual exposure controls, it captures beautiful images with its wide, 3.8x optical zoom lens and ranks among the top compact cameras we've seen.

Perfectly point-and-shoot

Dec 30, 2008

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Big LCD screen, easy controls
Cons: Lacks manual controls
Opinion:
The perfect camera for those looking for a good point-and-shoot cam. Controls are easy to use, LCD screen is big, quality of images are excellent, and lots of preset modes for different situations. Not for those who want more from the manual mode.
