The Canon Ixus 960 IS is a very impressive camera especially for a pocket camera. I have had it for a bit longer than a year and am delighted with my purchase! I chose it due to good reviews and being very impressed with the specs compared to the price! You do also get a 32 mb memory card which I was surprised to see but it only takes a few photos and it is full so you will need to buy another one!
How the camera looks!The camera is actually made from titanium so has a very strong and good build quality. I can`t imagine how many knocks this thing could take but I imagine it would take many and it has even survived when I put the SD card in the wrong way which broke my old camera! The camera is a little larger than other pocket cameras but it has many functions and a fantastic build quality which make up for this.
The Canon Ixus 960 IS also boasts some fantastic features. One of my favourite features is the face detection which somehow automatically detects faces and zooms in on them. The camera also has a really good zoom which is 3.7. The camera also has a viewfinder but I don`t actually use this. It even is 12 megapixels! The flash also works very well and can be turned on or off or left on automatic depending on what you want to do with the camera.
There are many different modes to suit the situation and I think you can even create your own modes to use! You can also play around with the colours and make it black and white and other colours.
The camera is also reasonable quick to turn on and while there is a short delay to take pictures this probably less than a second which is perfectly fine.
The camera also shoots videos and while I have tried it a couple of times I have not really tested it very much but it all seems to work perfectly fine and at a decent enough quality but I don`t buy cameras to take videos so I don`t really care how good it is!
The pictures I take with the camera always appear to be of a high quality with nice sharp colours and other features like face detection, colours and modes helping to get the perfect shot. It does everything I want it to and more and I would really recommend it!
I can`t really think of any faults with it and I think this is probably as good as point and shoots will ever come!
Overall this is a great camera that I would really recommend highly which is fantastic. It has an amazing build quality, fantastic features and takes great shots!
The Canon Ixus 960 IS has quite a high standard price but sells for much cheaper than that price now and was roughly £130 when I bought it which is brilliant value!
