Digital Photography in the Palm of Your Hands (Canon Digital IXUS)

(City), (State) (PRLeap) – Digital technology today is getting bigger and better with its functions and features. However, "small is in" seems to be the current trend when it comes to producing the most portable and functional digital camera. With images constantly being transported from one person to another via the Internet, it is no wonder that manufacturers and developers are trying to outdo themselves with digital cameras that can be taken wherever the users are. Simply put, with portable and pocket-sized digital cameras around, users more often than not would be more likely to take them out and get those shots.

With this in mind, Digital Room, one of the premier digital printing outfits, is currently testing one of the latest products of Canon.

The Canon Digital IXUS is truly the smallest digital camera available in the market and weighs only 2.1mp. Just as small as the size of a credit card, the front of the Digital IXUS that is. With a steel case, flat front and automatic lens cover, users don't have to worry too much on handling the thing. What's even more exciting is that because of its small size (can fit in the palm of your hand), users will be more inclined to take the camera and get more snaps and shots.

With Canon's brand of pocket sized cameras, they were able to combine traditional photography with digital technology via the design of the Digital IXUS.

Some of the Features of the Digital IXUS

 Approximately 4 million camera effective pixels
 ½.5-inch CCD Image Senser
 6.4 mm Lens
 Approximately 5.7x digital zoom

Having a flat surface, the Digital IXUS is easier to carry and store, AND it looks cool. The lens cover flips closed just as the lens retracts to protect the glass.

The LCD display however, is small. Nevertheless, the 1.5" display id perfectly usable, bright and clear. All the rear-of-camera controls are aligned below the LCD for easy altering of settings on-screen and adjustments.
