Review Summary: Canon could have made it a little better!

Overall Score: 4/5

Review: I bought this Canon IXUS 860 IS camera because I wanted a pocket size camera with a decent low light capability. My previous camera a Casio Z50 suffered from noise at ISO 200 especially at night. I have to say the Casio was better built esp in respect to the battery/card cover. I would say this was important if you will be recharging/changing the battery/card often. It really is too flimsy and is inexcusable when paying much more than other compacts on the market.The best way to transfer images is to remove the SD card and put in your card reader. The other downside, more for people interested in optical image quality is that it tends to use F2.8 most of the time even in broad daylight and I can't see any "scene" mode that would change that. The other thing I don't like is the touch dial. You're better off using the "Func Set" button in the middle of it and then making changes. Compared to the other models on the market this is the better option and this is my opinion after owning it for a week.
