  1. D-Photo and The Photographer's Mail

    25 June 2011

    This sleek camera has lots of subtle yet superior differences from its predecessor, the IXUS 300 HS. For example, instead of a 28mm focal length, this has a wide 24mm. The touch-screen LCD, which almost fills the entire camera back, is slightly larger at 3.2 inches and pixels have increased from 10 to 12.1 megapixels. The camera body is simple: only the playback button, conveniently placed at the bottom right, shares the camera back with the LCD screen. Read more

    • Good low light shots, Easy to record movies, Close focusing range
