    The Canon IXUS 100 IS is an ultra-compact digital camera designed with the social photographer in mind. It shares much in common with the , including a 12.1-megapixel CCD sensor, optical image stabiliser and a 720p high-definition movie mode. However, it has traded in its sibling’s 5x optical zoom and three inch LCD screen for a substantially smaller body. Read more

    • Good image quality, 720p video mode, endearingly petite
    • Awkward zoom control, occasional noise issues, no Active Control
