Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS SD870 IS Review

DCResource have reviewed the new Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS / Powershot SD870 IS Digital Elph - an update to the 850 IS / SD800 - it's a compact 8 megapixel digital camera, and features a 3.8x optical zoom lens, optical image stabilisation, a 3" screen, and DIGIC III processor. The IXUS 860 is available for £199:

"Image quality was very good, though not without some compromises that come from that compact wide-angle lens. On the positive side, the SD870 took well-exposed images, with pleasing colors, good sharpness, and minimal purple fringing. Noise really isn't a problem until the highest ISO settings, though you'll start seeing the effects of noise reduction at ISO 400 (in good light)."
