Canon IXUS 85 IS

Canon IXUS 85 IS

The Canon IXUS 85 IS is one of the decreasing number of pocket cameras offering a viewfinder. With the ever increasing size of LCD screens viewfinders are tending to be squeezed out. Here you have the best of both worlds with a viewfinder and a good sized 2.5 inch LCD screen.
The IXUS range of cameras is noted for their build quality and their style. You should also have no problem slipping the IXUS 85 IS into a pocket as it is only a shade over 20mm wide.
Compared with other pocket cameras the IXUS 85 IS offers a few extra features. One of the most noticeable ones is image stabilisation. This helps to reduce blur, especially in lowlight situations.
Canon supply a 32mb SD card to get you started when it comes to storing images. This is only enough for a small number of shots. The IXUS 85 IS is also compatible with SD and SDHC memory cards.
