A 3x optical zoom (12.3x combined) offers a wide angle of coverage, while the 9-point AiAF ensures accurate focusing, even with off-center subjects.High performance demands plenty of processing power - which is why the Digital IXUS 500 incorporates Canon's dedicated DIGIC processor. DIGIC delivers superb image quality at high speed with less drain on the battery for extended performance.iSAPS is a hidden photographer's assistant, instantly analyzing the scene and making adjustments even before the shutter release is pressed. iSAPS optimizes exposure, white balance and auto-focus settings in every shooting situation for consistently brilliant results.An Intelligent Orientation Sensor automatically rotates images before playback. Movie mode allows up to 3-minute movie clips (30 seconds in VGA mode) with sound recording, playback and 'in-camera' editing. Auto mode is perfect for 'point and shoot' situations, while Manual mode puts you in creative control. An optional waterproof case protects your IXUS to a depth of 40m.The camera prints directly to all PictBridge or Canon Direct Print compatible printers. Create beautiful, instant photo prints by connecting camera to printer and pushing the Print/Share button, which also speeds up online sharing to any Windows PC. When used with a Canon Compact Photo Printer, you can print ID photos, or a series of movie clip frames.With Canon's ZoomBrowser EX (for Windows) and ImageBrowser (for Macintosh) you can arrange albums, crop photographs and adjust image contrast and brightness.

Canon Ixus 500,

This review is from: Canon IXUS 500 - Digital camera - 5.0 Mpix - optical zoom: 3 x - supported memory: CF (Electronics)
This is a dream of a digital camera - easy to use, fantastic clarity and detail, solid build quality - cannot fault it really.
For stills and video clips this camera is highly recommended. For the price its an absolute steal.

This review is from: Canon IXUS 500 - Digital camera - 5.0 Mpix - optical zoom: 3 x - supported memory: CF (Electronics)
I have owned this model of camera for 3 years and it has never failed me. I used it in temperatures as low as -20 and as high as +35. I have dropped it a number of times and it still works as good as the day I bought it. The solid case is looking a little worn now and the lens popped out of its mount once when my 3 year old dropped it with the lens fully extended but I popped it back in and it worked fine again. Picture quality indoors can be a little noisy on automatic settings but the manual settings can help with this. I have used the video function to make short music videos to amuse friends and work mates who are constantly surprised by the quality of picture from such a small camera. Its not broadcast quality but from a point and shoot camera its very good. There are enough manual settings to play around with but limited for any serious photography. It has been a great camera to keep in a pocket for spur of the moment photos and caputered many great family memories making it worth every penny. My only criticisms are that many photos lack crispness when displayed on a computer screen compared with other brands. Its easily fixed with photoshop or similar editing tool by adjusting the contrast levels but worth mentioning. Also the anti red eye function does not work at all again leading to more work on photoshop. Despite these small issues I still give the camera five starts for its quality as a never failing work horse despite the level of abuse I have given it.
