Good Points

Easy to use. Has view finder if camera should get damaged (see below) or if it's too bright to see display. Battery lasts ages. Easy to download. When you take a picture by portrait (camera on it's side) it can tell and turns it round the right way when reviewing them!


Bad Points

Can't really think of any. Slight delay when taking pics that my partner can't get his head round.


General Comments

The Canon Ixus 40 is an absolutely fab camera. If you can find it buy it. Which? rates it as a best buy too. After coming back from a holiday in china I realised that my old bulky Kodak digital was no good and i needed a pocket sized one i would be more likely to take out. This is it and i find it hard to fault. I am now getting an Ixus 55. Not because I need a better camera, I suspect the 40 may be that, but because I left my 40 in my back and the display at the back was damaged. However, the viewfinder means that i can still take pictures. Be warned, in a soft pocket your camera will be safe, but if with bulky items get a case. Nothing is infallible, not even Ixus 40...
