 Canon Digital IXUS 65 review : If you can judge the worth of a concept by the times it is copied, then Canon's IXUS series is a definite success. Many digital cameras currently on the market bear a lot of similarities to the Canon Digital IXUS digital camera. This is quite logical as Canon has achieved a perfect combination of design and functionality in this series. The latest top model, the Canon IXUS 65 has brought Canon one step closer to perfection. The Canon IXUS 65 first grabs your attention because of something it doesn't have: many pixels. The Canon IXUS 65 only has six, less than many of its competitors. The Japanese giant made this choice deliberately, going for better instead of more pixels: quality above quantity.

 Canon IXUS 65 - Anti camera shake
Stylish compact cameras are generally used indoors, at parties and in other low light situations where the use of the flash can spoil the ambience of the scene. The Canon Digital IXUS 65 incorporates ISO 800 to facilitate flash-free shooting indoors and minimise the effects of camera shake. A new High ISO Auto setting automatically sets exposure using the higher range of ISO sensiti-vities, prioritising faster shutter speeds for reduced image blur. Dedicated ISO buttons on the Canon IXUS 65 digital camera allows quick switching between ISO settings.
Canon Digital IXUS 65 - Wide screen shots
Wide screen shots are becoming more popular. This is partially due to the growth in flat wide screen televisions. There is no real panorama setting on the Canon IXUS 65, but a wide screen setting in a ratio of 16:9, so it is HDTV. Perfect for those who view images on widescreen television or print wide format photos.
Canon IXUS 65 - Touch Control Dial
The Canon IXUS 65 also has a larger screen, which is a comfortable three inches. This is not unique - indeed it is becoming more common - but it is still great to work with. Another new feature of the Canon IXUS 65 is the so-called Touch Control Dial, that is a bit like the click wheel that we know from the Apple iPod. It is a new approach to functions. It is not the usual button, but reacts to touch. An icon appears on the screen, so that you can see what you are doing, even in poor light.
Canon Digital IXUS 65 digital camera review
The Canon IXUS 65 digital camera has everything it needs to become a big success. The first reactions from consumers have all been positive and it seems that the camera has already become a big sales hit for Canon. We were able to try out the Canon IXUS 65 camera for a longer period and the results can be seen in the following Canon IXUS 65 review.
