Canon IXUS 860 IS

Canon IXUS 860 IS

The Canon IXUS 860 IS is a stylish digital camera with a silver body. One of the extra attractions of the IXUS 860 IS is the wide angle lens. This is likely to prove attractive if you take a lot of landscape shots or groups of people where you need to squeeze in a wide scene.
The camera also has image stabilisation built into the lens. Unlike most of the other cameras in this part of the range the IXUS 860 IS does not have a viewfinder. Instead it has a larger 3 inch LCD screen.

After a photo has been taken you can add 60 seconds of commentary to it. This can help you to remember what was happening at the time the photo was taken. For any portrait shots taken with flash where red eye is a problem there is a special red eye correction tool.

If you want to boost the power of the flash unit on the camera you can buy a separate flash unit from Canon.
