The IXUS brand is the most popular make of compact camera out there, but it's hardly on the cutting edge of innovation. The Canon IXUS 200 is the first Canon to feature a touchscreen. Isn't that exciting? We bet Kodak, Nikon, Samsung, Panasonic and Sony all wish they thought of that first -- oh wait, they all did. Still, the 200 and the IXUS 120 are both sleekly styled and decently specced snappers.
The 200 boasts a very respectable 24mm wide-angle lens, and 5x optical zoom, which is pretty impressive given the dinky dimensions.
Slender as the 200 is, it's still not as lean as the 120, the slimmest IXUS ever. Both models include guides to help novices with shooting tips, and both shoot 720p high-definition video.
The IXUS 200 and 120 join the PowerShot G11, S90 and SX20 in today's new line-up. Click through our gallery to see the IXUS 200 and 120 in action.
