Canon IXUS 285 HS A

Meet the IXUS 285 HS A - your go-to compact camera that’s as sleek as your style and always ready to roll. Slip it into your pocket and snap epic shots wherever life takes you. Zoom in up to 12x to catch all the details and let Intelligent IS keep your pics crisp and steady.

This is an ultra-slim compact camera which features a 20.2 million pixel high-sensitivity CMOS sensor accompanied by a 12x optical zoom, which gives you an equivalent of 25-300mm in 35mm terms.

There's also two types of digital zoom available which boosts that reach to 24x and 48x and Intelligent IS (image stabilisation) is included to help keep blur to a minimum.

This camera has a Digic 4+ processor and a number of automatic and scene modes which you can shoot in. There's also Creative Shot, which creates five different images with digital filters and crops (along with a standard, clean image) applied from one press of the shutter release button.

It is capable of recording full HD videos, while there's also Hybrid Auto which creates a montage video to accompany stills you have taken during a given day.
