Extended Features: from wide angle to reach
The three-inch touchscreen in 16:9 format takes up almost the entire back of the Ixus 200 IS. It acts not only as a viewfinder and an instrument for controlling the image, but also serves to control the camera. For example, you can select 18 records and four flash modes.

The Canon Ixus 200 IS integrated half-inch CCD sensor 0.3 provides a maximum resolution of 12.1 megapixels in 4:3. The focal length of the lens begins to 4.3 mm wide-angle – equivalent to 24mm format equivalent to a few millimeters. Grace five times, have worked quickly to extend the focal length of the zoom optical devices to the equivalent of 120 mm. An optical image stabilizer allows the photographer to reduce camera shake for pictures with an exposure time longer.

Touch Screen: Only two hands
The Canon Ixus 200 IS can only be used with both hands in the shuffle mode. It is not enough to get the metal box full security under control. Also the ease of the camera suffers, if only one hand available, except through the large screen, thumb rest is done on the back of the box is too small. In addition, falls on the negative, the cursor to select the heavy type of recording not working very accurate and the program automatically jumps, if not used with great sensitivity.

At first, it is confusing for the photographer, what settings on the touch screen and are paid through the standard checks. Besides the selection of recording modes, it allows the touch screen also controls the exposure compensation and autofocus reference. As usual triggers on top of the shutter lag significantly.

Initially, the touchscreen does not seem to respond to any input. After a short familiarization phase, the photographer, however, will be developed an idea of how much pressure he exerted on the screen. Very useful is the touch screen when displaying images: Unique Touch increase the view moves to the right or left call the next or previous image. Press twice to delete calls from the index image.

Image Quality: Good
The CCD sensor offers in cooperation with the DIGIC 4 image processor usable images. The shortcomings in the details: The images fall in a relatively dark color, but always natural. While the center of the image is sharp and detailed, point to the image slightly blurred edges. In flash photography, vignetting in the corners is extreme. From the point of sensitivity the light of ISO 400 One image noise is increasing with the increasing sensitivity of ISO 1600 and even in a negative reduced noticed.

The Canon IXUS 200 IS Video Capture HD resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels at 30 frames per second. Although the films in full screen on a TV HD flat screen, but are not as detailed as professional cameras with distorted images. Some of the sharpness of detail is lost and the pixels merge into a "slurry". As might be expected in a compact device that does not affect the sound quality, but sufficient for videographers casual. The zoom lens movement is not with the movies.

Hardware Hardware
The storage medium SD and SDHC fit in IS Canon Ixus 200. MMC, MMCplus and HC MMCplus cards can also be used. Power is a lithium-ion batteries safely. Transmission images and video files is possible not only by inserting the card into a reader: About the HDMI port and AV output, the device can be used via cable TV and computer.

Conclusion: on average more expensive
The high expectations, at least not increasing the price Canon's new compact model, does not meet the Ixus 200 IS. The scheme differs only slightly from the current average for the compact class. Well the touch screen is a useful addition to the normal functioning of the device, the image quality is good, but average.

By Canon, the IXUS 200 IS is available in the colors blue, gold, silver and purple. The suggested retail price is 339 euros. Internet retailers are currently to accept orders in advance for about 330 euros. A purchase recommendation for the Ixus 200 IS can give the tester in good conscience until price under $ 500.
