  • By Kyle Schurman Bare-bones, basic cameras are getting tougher and tougher to find. It seems like this year's models all have some sort of advanced feature, whether it's a built-in Wi-Fi capability, a large zoom lens, a touch screen LCD ... or all thre...

  • The Canon PowerShot Elph 115 IS compact camera isn't the best performer, but budget-minded shooters will appreciate its size and zoom range....

  • Lengthy linear exposure mode menu, Average continuous shooting speeds, No optical zoom in video modes, Mono mic.
  • see how it compares to the next two models in the Canon ELPH / IXUS range. Compared to Canon ELPH 300 HS / IXUS 220 HS The ELPH 300 HS / IXUS 220 is the next model up from the ELPH 100 HS / IXUS 115 HS in the range. It has a smaller 2...

  • Canon's PowerShot ELPH models are generally easy to recommend; that's true with the Canon 100 HS. It's the year's easiest pick as a bargain all-around camera, with good looks and good image quality. We appreciated the Canon 100 HS's small, pocketable s...

  • Point-and-shoots tend to concern themselves with extra features to stand out from the dozens of choices. Touchscreens, long zoom-ranges, share buttons, and special effects are all well and dandy, but the Canon PowerShot ELPH 100 HS (MSRP $199) succeed...

  • The entry level Canon ELPH models have always been favorites of mine, and the new PowerShot ELPH 100 HS continues that tradition. While it doesn't do anything radical (unless you count the switch from CCD to CMOS), the ELPH offers a solid design, plen...

  • Excellent design, slim body, good image quality, reasonable price tag
  • LCD screen not the highest specification, no manual control, missing a few features
  • Whenever a new IXUS camera arrives, it does so with a certain weight of expectation behind it. The IXUS 115 HS, with its full specification, HS technology and reasonable-for-an-IXUS price tag, certainly has as much of this weight as any. However, the ...
