High quality record and playback settings, very easy to use and a great zoom ....Battery runs down quite qucikly, therefore alot fo charging is needed ....I purchased the Canon DC 40 because it seemed like a very high quality camcorder, which was easy to use and allowed me to captire all those wonderful moments on film...Its playback capabilities are very good and easy to access...Are...

The IXUS 40 has a 4-megapixel CCD and 3x optical zoom, in a pocketable form factor...There are fewer compromises here than with the i5...

Slim style Build quality Large LCD screen...Buttons on the back of the camera could be confusing....The Canon IXUS 40 is an ultra slim digital camera...The feature set is pretty standard and as cameras go the IXUS 40 is easy enough to use...Overall the camera is likely to appeal to the social photographer rather than someone who is more serious about their photography......

Small, light, easy to use, great pictures, cheap printing Low battery warning doesn't give much time Brilliant shots, tiny, fast and stylish (steel)! Excellent movie and long-exposure modes...

The camera is also very good at shooting in the dark, without flash...Generally, the pictures from the camera are clean and crisp, with good colour definition...Overall I'm satisfied with this product...

Not as sharp wide open, Barrel distortion at 17mm, slight pincushion distortion at 40mm I have been using this lens for almost 3 months, the lens is absolutely best wide angle lens I have ever owned...So at extreme wide, make sure you won't put your subject in the corner of the picture ;) Overall, I am very pleased with the result from this lens...One of the best highly recommended Completely unsatisfactory...
