  • Good zoom range; decent lens quality; effective touchscreen controls
  • Black borders on the LCD display when shooting stills; over-sensitive rear control dial; weak definition at high ISOs
  • With the Digital IXUS 200 IS, Canon seems to have aimed for steady evolution rather than technical innovation. The 200 is a perfectly decent camera, but it's far from a must-have ...

  • Touchscreen implementation effective. Top-notch build quality. User-friendly face-detection features. Good image quality
  • Expensive, considering lack of manual features. Mix of touchscreen and dial operation can be confusing. Variable low-light performance

  • Image quality at low sensitivities, Powerful ultra wideangle, Good optical stabilisation, Traditional interface works well, Generally very responsive
  • The touchscreen makes things more complicated!, Slider to switch modes more stylish than practical, No optical zoom in video, Weak burst mode

  • Abstract:  The Canon IXUS 200 IS is a 12 megapixel digital camera with a 5x optical zoom lens. The lens has a focal length equivalent to 25 - 120mm in 35mm format. This means it has extreme wide angle capabilities. This is likely to prove attractive if you enjoy ...

  • Abstract:  Verdict: Image quality isn't the best, but the touchscreen, wide-angle lens, HD video mode and HDMI output justify the high price. The Ixus 200 IS is Canon's first touchscreen camera, and it's a joy to behold. The metal lozenge shell - available in ...

  • Spacious LCD screen, swooping through galleries
  • Touch controls only work for some things
  • Canon's on to something with touchscreen controls, but for the price, this may be first-gen tech best left alone...
