The best camera of 2011 doesn't have an interchangeable lens, a tilting screen or even a particularly high resolution. What the IXUS 230HS does have is Canon's high-sensitivity HS system. This consistently shot well balanced exposures and vibrant colours in all lighting conditions throughout our tests. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, with buttons moved onto one end of the body rather than the back plate.
It comes with a 12.1-megapixel sensor and 8x zoom. We were bowled over by the results, with super-accurate focusing, skilful sensor noise control and excellent video performance pushing it to the top of our chart. At the time of our review, we recommended holding out until the price fell below £200. Well, your patience has paid off, as it's now retailing in some outlets at around £180. Go buy.
