Canon IXUS 70 Digital Camera - Black (7.1MP, 3x Optical Zoom) 2.5″ LCD
Canon has launched a digital camera with the flattest zoom the Japanese retailer has ever built, at less than an inch thick. The Digital Ixus 70 digital camera is a combination of style and power. The Digital Ixus 70 provides you with the latest technologies, including an in-built DIGIC III image processor. You can take beautiful photos thanks to its 7-megapixel CCD sensor. Whether you’re taking pictures in soft lighting, at a concert or in dimly-lit interiors, nothing will escape the Digital Ixus 70 digital camera thanks to its 1600 ISO sensitivity. With its different flash modes, you won?t have to worry about blinding your subjects. You can even eliminate red-eye effects with the touch of a button. But the Digital Ixus 70 doesn?t stop there; it also includes a face-detection function that recognises up to 9 faces for perfect, colourful, clear pictures every time. The Digital Ixus 70 also includes a video recording mode with sound, letting you take up to 1-hour video sequences in 640 x 480 resolution at 30 images per second on an SD high-capacity memory card. The Ixus 70 will bring style and digital performance to your photos.

Customer Review: Just buy it now…
I wanted to buy a camera, and as it was my first one, a friend of mine recommended 2 possible choices to me - this and a panasonic one…I went for this…

It is, so far, brilliant. Ive yet to use it extensivly, but by just shooting random objects it has proved itself greatly. The build quality and size strike you first as it seems very rugged but also in the same sense, stylish. It has many clever modes, and one thing that pleasnetly suprised me is hat when you put it up onto full zoom, not just 3x zoom, but passed that, the picure goes all hazy, but once you’ve taken the shot it is crystal clear, like you are standing right next to it…I’ll have to upload some shots to prove my point…

I could go on and on for ages about this camera, but I’ll stop here (as I have revison to do…) and just end with…just buy it now…:)

Customer Review: Nice one
It is very handy camera. Colours could not be that real. Espically indoor shots are almost perfect for this small camera. I definetly see that I have given right desicion to buy this camera. Economic and it does everything what you expect from a compact machine. Nice one… Strongly recommended.
