Together with enhanced Face Detection Technology and Auto Red-Eye Correction as an option in shooting mode, these features offer a significant step up in technologies.

IXUS 80 IS Highlights

8.0 Megapixels The number of megapixels determines the amount of sharp detail a digital camera can record. With more megapixels, you can print at larger sizes, plus crop and enlarge without sacrificing quality. IXUS cameras provide all the resolution you need for finely detailed, photo-quality prints with plenty of scope for post-shoot cropping. A full 8.0 megapixels of resolution ensure rich depth and detail, and lets you enlarge and crop images freely.

3X Optical Zoom The camera's Genuine Canon 3x Optical Zoom not only gets you in close, but performs with all the clarity and brilliance you'd expect from the world's leader in advanced optics technology.

Optical Image Stabilizer Any slight shake while hand-holding a camera can cause blurred photos. Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology ensures crisp, clear images by detecting and correcting this camera shake. The camera is able to microscopically adjust its own lens with absolute accuracy up to 4,000 times every second, so the image you see is the image you capture. Image Stabilizer is especially useful at full zoom, which exaggerates camera movements, and in low-light settings that call for slower shutter speeds.

Motion Detection Technology / High ISO/IS Canon’s Motion Detection Technology uses several methods to detect camera and subject movement and set exposure accordingly. The brightness of subject and background, movement of the subject (based on comparison of frames over time) Face Detection information and camera shake information from the optical Image Stabilizer (IS) gyros are all taken into account. Where motion is detected the camera automatically selects the appropriate ISO level to achieve a shot with minimal noise and zero blur.

Face Detection Technology Utilising the power of DIGIC III, Canon’s Face Detection Technology ensures superb people shots by automatically detecting subjects in the frame and setting the correct focus, flash level and exposure.

Red Eye Correction This popular feature can now remove red-eye automatically during shooting, as well as in playback mode.

DIGIC III The massive processing capacity of DIGIC III paves the way for advanced features such as Face Detection Technology and Red-Eye Correction, while exceptional processing speed delivers outstanding responsiveness, fast and accurate auto focus and extended continuous shooting. Linking all key camera functions for maximum efficiency, all DIGIC processors achieve brilliant image detail, clarity and colour reproduction,while delivering long, high quality movies and more shots from a single charge.

2.5" LCD Screen The camera's 2.5-inch LCD screen gives you the big picture, whether you're shooting, reviewing or showing off your images. This extra-durable, high-resolution screen with tough scratch-resistant coating on the anti-reflective, PureColor LCD II screen offers a crisp, clear picture to make shooting, playback and using the camera's menu functions especially convenient.

Sunset Scene Mode “Sunset” is added to the Special Scene Modes. This mode optimizes settings such as exposure and white balance, thereby making it possible to reproduce brilliant sunset shots.

30 FPS VGA Movies Shoot super-smooth, VGA -quality movies with sound. In-camera editing gives you creative control and slow-motion playback highlights every precious moment. Choose Long Play mode for stronger compression that allows twice as much video to be stored on your memory card.

Additional Features

	Optical Viewfinder The viewfinder can be used to conserve power by turning the LCD monitor off while shooting. Use the LCD monitor to compose close-ups in macro mode since images composed with the viewfinder may be off-center. iSAPS Like a built-in photographer’s assistant, iSAPS is determining the optimal settings for each image even before you take a shot. It analyses the scene using PhotoSpace – an in-camera library of photographic data about the way people take pictures. It then controls the exposure, focus and white balance to ensure you get the best from every shot.
	My Colours Add a personal touch to your image or movie with Canon’s My Colours. Choose from vivid blue for the sky, antique sepia for the portrait or classic black and white for the landscape. These creative options and many more – normally available only on a computer – can be applied directly from your camera, before or after the shot.

Would recommend to anyone.
Pink version at least £10 less than silver. Who needs silver!!

brilliant camera
Bought this to replace a casio that i was not to happy with. I'm very happy with this camera. The pics are sharp and clear,(even though i have a slight hand shake)and the colours are brilliant and need very little if any, correction in an imaging software.Have taken the best pictures of my grandchildren in a long time. Thought the pink might be a bit over the top, but i love it. Only moan is i would have liked a proper manual as i like browsing them. Lots of thing i haven't tried on this camera yet but i'm having a lot of fun,and it hasn't been to difficult up to now

Lovely Camera
I am thrilled with the purchase of my first digital camera. It's compact, light and gorgeous in pink! Also, the best price through Amazon. It was really easy to start using and takes excellent pictures/vids which are really easy to upload. The camera may be small but the screen is ample. I also purchased a 2Gb card for extra storage. Shame it doesn't come with a decent case. Buy it and enjoy it!
