Canon Digital Ixus 90 ISLike a spurned lover, Canon has been trying to get in touch all day to have its say (five emails and counting). And what it wanted to say is this: there’s a new range of Digital Ixus products out, including a black and silver 85 IS, the 90 IS and the 970 IS.

The Digital IXUS 85 IS has evolved from the Digital IXUS 70 design and now features a silver casing, “bold lens ring” and edging details in piano black or silver. 

Canon said it had also softened the camera’s sharp minimalism in favour of a distinctive “curved square” design, giving the slimline digital compact camera a “smoother and more fluid look”.

Features include:
* 3x optical zoom lens
* 10-megapixel image sensor
* Motion detection technology
* Optical image stabiliser (IS) lenses
* Face detection technology
* 2.5-inch PureColor II LCD screen.
* Red-Eye correction in shooting and playback mode
* 19 shooting modes
* VGA 30fps, long play and time lapse movie modes.

The Digital IXUS 85 IS is available from late March priced at £239.00 (€349) RRP including VAT.
