Very good

View score

The good: Nice picture quality with accurate colors; 24mm ultra-wide-angle lens; sleek aesthetics; snappy performance; onboard accelerometer makes user experience more interesting.

The bad: Touchscreen operation not intuitive; design of buttons can be frustrating to operate; not as slim as competing models.

The bottom line: The Ixus 200 IS is a camera that delivers good picture quality, but we think its touchscreen implementation could be better.

Poor battery life, Poor picture composition in Auto mode



Rating: 2 out of 10 (Terrible)
Pros: Service FAst in terms of coming back after complain

Opinion:
Not for those who wants a fully automatic self composed camera. that will give you quality pictures.

Cons: Still Looking!
Opinion:
All I really want to do is pull my camera out of my bag, point, shoot, and get a good shot without having to muck around with too many settings. On that point the 200 IS really delivers. I got consistently good shots in most all conditions.

However, the real joy comes when you it's time to review those wide angle gems that you just took on that beautiful 3 inch wide screen. There are just so many different ways to have fun looking at or sharing your snaps with others. Swipe your finger across the screen, tap the screen to zoom in, a little flick of the finger to delete, a little shake if you like, zoom through all the photos with the fly wheel or simply do it the old fashioned way with a little press. I've never had so much fun reviewing my photos or showing them to others ... Read more
