The emphasis being on little, as this is small, but very comfortable to hold and take pictures with. I bought it because of its wifi capability. I have seen other reviews of this camera which say the wifi is fiddly to set up, absolutely not the case, it's a doodle and I'm no techy!

awesome camera........ cant have a point n shoot with such nifty features at this price range i.e < 7K.... seal was untouched and the product was in perfect shape.....

It's a nice camera made out of metal. Not a small one and therefore it's adequate for bigger hands. But the picture-quality isn't that good. With a clear blue sky you could shoot some good pics. But when you you need to use the flash all you got are pics with gleaming and unnatural colors.

Ideal for photographers who love the flexibility of a touchscreen camera, the IXUS 1100 HS also offers a huge optical zoom and good image quality. The lack of a decent battery life is disappointing, though, and makes the shooting experience more frustrating than it should be.

Canon is no stranger to compact cameras with long lenses, the most recent example being the IXUS 1000 HS . As you can tell by the naming convention, the IXUS 1100 HS supersedes this older camera, adding a few extra bits and pieces, like a longer lens, to the specifications sheet.

The IXUS line of Canon digital compact cameras has been synonymous with excellent optics and build quality since the days of APS film when the first one appeared. Now, IXUS is regarded as the luxury brand of Canon's digital compacts.
