Design of the Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS Digital Camera


Possibly the saddest change with this new model is that Canon omitted an optical viewfinder from the IXUS 860. This was probably done to make room for the larger screen, but it's an unfortunate compromise. On the upside, Canon spruced up the look of the camera's back. This includes the newer version of Canon's multi-controller pad. It's more responsive and a raised ring around the edge gives it a better feel.

Plus, when you rest your thumb in any particular direction on the pad, a graphic appears on the LCD to show you what you'd do if you press fully. This helps you to keep your eyes on the screen when you have to change a setting while shooting.
