TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary   

The IXUS 85 IS is a camera for beginners or tourists who wish to learn about photography, as it is very simply designed and easy to use. It doesn’t have too many external dials, except for a shutter and a directional navigator.

It has Optical image stabilization, a 10 megapixel resolution and an ultracompact design. In addition it consists of a 3x zooming lens, an AF frame setting, face recognition software, and a red-eye reducing feature.

The camera weighs only 5.3 ounces, and measures 3.4 x 2.1 x 0.8 inches, making it extremely handy to carry around in your pocket.

The IXUS 85 IS has a 10MP sensor that is connected to a 35 x 105mm lens. It includes a DIGIC III processor which helps in image stabilisation, as well as a wide array of My-Colours options to enable a functional colour combination approach.

The images taken are quite sharp, though the editors found that the edges might sometimes smudge a little. The flash is balanced and noise levels are very low.

The editors liked

  • Easy to handle
  • Good picture quality and resolution
  • Compact build and easy to hold
  • Optical image stabilization
  • Works well even with low lighting
  • Impressive colour schemes and simple manual dials.

The editors didn't like

  • LCD display is very small
  • Image Blowouts
  • Performance can get slow with certain shots
  • Corners of images can get smudged.

TestSeek's Conclusion

Overall, the reviewers were all of the opinion that the Canon Powershot IXUS 85 IS is a sleek, compact and easy to handle camera, and can be very useful for beginners, giving a decent picture quality as well.

  • Optical image stabilizer, good image quality, optical viewfinder.
  • 2.5-inch LCD, faux Manual mode.
  • Despite its shortcomings, the Canon Digital IXUS 85 IS still packs features that define it as a worthy shooter in the IXUS lineup.

  • Stabilisation optique, Capteur généreux
  • Pas dinnovation notable, Pas de grandangle, Prix un peu élevé
  • La gamme des compacts bijoux de Canon se renouvelle timidement avec les IXUS 85 IS et 90 IS. Des appareils très proches sur le plan technique : le 85 est doté dun écran moins grand (6,35 au lieu de 7,62 cm), possède un viseur optique (dont le 90 est d...
