While the Canon PowerShot SD850 IS may not have the large LCD of the SD870 IS or the sky-high megapixel count of the SD950 IS, it is still a fine all-around point-and-shoot for most shutterbugs, and is a better value than its two siblings. Tracey Cape...

Despite its convoluted name, the Ixus 950IS does not replace the 850IS but rather the Ixus 800. Physically very close to the 850 IS (a best seller), the 950 IS integrates an 8 million pixel sensor and optical stabilization. So has the Ixus line been en...

Ousting the 10-megapixel IXUS 900 Ti as the flagship of Canon’s IXUS series of pocket-sized digital compacts, the new 8mp IXUS 950 is, in fact, a replacement for the lower-end 6mp IXUS 800 IS. Although this means the new 950 has a three-tone painted...

The Canon IXUS 950 IS an eight megapixel digital camera. At around 26mm it is perhaps a shade large to slip comfortably into a pocket. At 165g before the battery and memory card are added it is on the heavy side for a jacket pocket as well. In America...

Despite being just a little bit chunkier - and heavier - than most other compacts in the same class, it still measures a pocket-sized 9.0 x 5.7 x 2.6cm and weighs in at 165g. The Ixus 950 IS feels solid, sturdy and well-made, despite giving the fragi...

The SD850 IS (IXUS 950 IS in Europe) was first announced in May 2007 as a replacement for the Powershot SD700 IS. It constitutes only a relatively subtle upgrade. Visually the SD850 is virtually indistinguishable from the older model (only the color...

Battery life when using LCD not brilliant, Slightly underpowered built-in flash, No A or S modes, generally little manual control, Auto White Balance performance under artificial light not brilliant, The usual problems of noise and noise reduction effects...

The SD850 IS is a typical example of what Canon does so well; a beautifully constructed, well designed and capable compact camera that doesnt break any new ground but does what it does with the refinement that comes from years of fine tuning and a re...
