Strengths: Very good features, image stabilization, compact in size

Weaknesses: Expensive

Canon IXUS 860 IS is good enough to make technocrats go week in their knees. The stylish steel finish camera comes with a wide range of features which is both impressive as well as practically designed. The 860 IS has an 8 megapixel strength which lends a fair deal of clarity to the pictures and allows you to even shoot in low light conditions.
The IXUS 860 wins many points in consumer reviews when it comes to overall styling of the camera….the expensive feel of the camera makes this an excellent gift for the shutterbugs in the family.

The lightweight camera gives excellent feel when photographing and the IXUS 860 captures good images. I was very impressed with the quality of images and so much so, that I have ended up carrying the IXUS 860 IS in my backpack at all times of the day. IXUS 860 is also much better than the other 8 megapixel camera and that is something which I really fell for when buying the camera.

Price-wise though the IXUS 860 IS is not cheap. With a price tag this high, the Canon IXUS IS not something which one might pick up in hurry but once you get to know it, it is well worth the price tag. Built-in softwares such as image stabilization also makes the IXUS 860 IS a favorite with the amateur photographers as well.
