All in all > ok as P&S, quiet and compact, but only 35mm eq. on the wide side, Exactly why I went for the Ixus: 28 to 105 equiv. instead of starting 'just' at 35. But man, what a bad lens it has: never have seen so much distortion on the wide end, nor such a low DR sensor. Isn't worth its 390 EUR, 1 gig SD included.
