Canon IXUS 200 IS review: Canon IXUS 200 IS
Pairing a pretty touchscreen interface with a competent camera is always a good move, but we're a bit stuck as to what the 200 IS actually is: a touchscreen or a conventional compact. It certainly took Canon long enough to come up with its first touchscreen camera. Other manufacturers like Nikon, Panasonic, Sony and Samsung have had versions that have been around for years, so can Canon bring anything new to the genre?
Pros:
- Touchscreen is responsive
- Nice interface
- Good pictures with punchy colours.
Cons:
- Poor performance compared to other compacts
- Why does a touchscreen camera have a whole host of buttons? We're confused.

Canon Ixus 200 IS
The Ixus 110 IS won five stars when we tested it, and so we're hoping that Canon will be able to repeat that success with the new Ixus 200 IS, which has a more powerful 24-120 mm
Pros:
- Image quality at low sensitivities
- Powerful ultra wide-angle
- Good optical stabilisation
- Traditional interface works well
- Generally very responsive
Cons:
- The touchscreen makes things more complicated
- Slider to switch modes more stylish than practical
- No optical zoom in video
- Weak burst mode

Canon Ixus 200 IS review
Image quality isn't the best, but the touchscreen, wide-angle lens, HD video mode and HDMI output justify the high price.

However, if you stay in the lower ISO range, you should get very good pictures. I think the shots I got are very sharp and colors are great. There's no difference to the different ends of the zoom, it is sharp all the way, and it is pretty fast so you can switch between the wide-angle and telephoto...

Great multipurpose camera
This is a great addition to the PowerShot lineup. No, this is not a professional level camera, so you need to understand that the optics are not of that caliber. If you want a great general purpose camera to keep with you wherever you are to take snap shots or some video, it is absolutely superb!
Pros:
- Easy to use
- Good Image Stabilization
- Good in Low Light
- Great Zoom
- Nice Body Color
- Pocket size
Cons:
- Poor Flash

Canon SX 200 IS review
I have been using this camera (Canan SX 200 IS ) for last 2 years. Picture quality is good. Now it is cheap also. With 12x optical zoom, and 10 MP it s a very good bargain.
