    Buying a new digital compact camera. IXUS? Powershot? Nikon? Sony?
    Hey everyone!

    As said in the tile I want to buy a new camera. A compact one.
    I have been lookiing at the IXUS series and think that it might sute me.

    But what si the difference between these?

    Is it worth buyng a IXUS 80 instead of a 70?
    Or should I go for a 860 instead?

    Or do you have another usgestion?


    Thanks guys!

    In order to give you useful advise, we need to know what type of photos you want to take. Different cameras are better or worse for certain types of photography.

    What are the features that you like in the IXUS camrera?

    You should try the Nikon CoolPix by Ashton Kutcher

    Just a suggestion lol.

    I currently use the canon sd800IS and the sony cybershot w80. To be honest, I like the canon's sleek design as well as its face detection + image stability. But as jcdill says, what kind of a photographer are you (casual, just everyday things... pretty serious... etc.) and how much are you looking to spend?

    Not as good as it should be. Nikon goes for a more sleek, colorful design to redirect you attention away from the not so sleek picture quality. In the SLR world they are a very good competitor but in the point and shoot world they need a quite a bit of help!
