Canon Digital IXUS 60 and Digital IXUS 65
Canon is pleased to announce the launch of two new jewels in the Digital IXUS crown – the Digital IXUS 60 and Digital IXUS 65. The two cameras continue the IXUS tradition of fusing cutting-edge technologies and superb build quality with compelling camera design. Featuring a high resolution 2.5" LCD screen, the steel-bodied Digital IXUS 60 draws on original IXUS designer Yasushi Shiotani's 'box and circle' concept to achieve a look of classic elegance. The innovative Digital IXUS 65 sports a massive 3.0" LCD, unique Touch Control Dial and a two-tone finish in brushed silver and ebony black.
Both cameras incorporate leading edge features into ultra slim bodies, including:
6.0 Megapixel resolution
3x optical zoom 35–105mm (35mm equivalent) with UA lens
DIGIC II, iSAPS and 9-point AiAF[1] for fast, sharp results
16 shooting modes
My Colours in-camera photo effects
30fps VGA movie clips with sound
High ISO Auto and ISO 800 for flash-free indoor shooting
Widescreen (16:9) still image recording
The Digital IXUS 60 and Digital IXUS 65 sit above the Digital IXUS 55 in the IXUS range and will appeal to style-conscious consumers seeking large displays, advanced functionality and great image quality in a compact and elegant camera.
"These new additions to the Digital IXUS range exemplify everything IXUS stands for – leading design, innovative technologies and outstanding performance," said Mogens Jensen Head of Canon Consumer Imaging Europe.
