This stylish little camera packs a big punch. The dynamic range and low-light performance are excellent thanks to the HS-system CMOS sensor, and the Smart Auto mode is reliable under a variety of settings.
With a few fun extras thrown in like fisheye and miniature-effect modes, the Canon IXUS 300 HS should interest both the casual and discerning photographer.
