CNET Review
The Good: The Canon PowerShot Elph 100 HS is a very good value, offering good photo and video quality outside and indoors, lots of fun shooting modes, and decent shooting performance for its class.
The Bad: The 100 HS' photos look soft, even at lower ISOs, and its autofocus is regularly inaccurate.
The Bottom Line: If you're after an inexpensive ultracompact with good low-light photos, the Canon PowerShot Elph 100 HS is one to get. But you'd better act fast.

Review Summary: The Canon PowerShot ELPH 100 HS (IXUS 115 HS in some territories) is the entry-level model in Canon's 2011 ELPH lineup. It's also the market's most affordable camera built around a CMOS sensor, which means that it's fast, and it can shoot great...
The Verdict: 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) succeeds...

Review Summary: Although it's incredibly annoying, we've come to accept that you can't expect a screen with decent viewing angles in a camera selling for under £200. There are, however, a few exceptions, and the Canon Ixus 115 HS is one of them. The large screen has a...
The Verdict: The Canon Ixus 115 HS is a nice surprise, boasting good internal electronics, a pleasant build and a sleek design, all for a price at which basic CCD sensors, harsh plastics and TN screens are still the order of the day. Canon just needs to improve the...

Review Summary: If I keep saying it long enough I might believe it, it's not pink, it's not pink it's purple. Here I am looking at one of Canons latest Ixus cameras, the 115HS. Its purple but I am very pleased to say that is only one of the colours it comes in.
The Verdict: I have never reviewed a bad Ixus camera and this is no exception, my job is to mention any minor shortcomings as I have done, if I do not mention a certain feature it is probably because it does its job as it should

Review Summary: The Ixus brand is usually associated with luxury rather than good value, but Canon has combined both in this latest entry-level model. Its curved metal body looks gorgeous, and it's backed up by some impressive specs including optical stabilisation, a...
The Verdict: A little pricier than most budget cameras, but its styling, features, photo quality and video quality are all in a different league.
