Our opinion of the Pink IXUS 130
The release of the Canon IXUS 130 sets a new benchmark for the next generation of cameras – 14 megapixels. With such a high resolution prints of up to A3 (297mm x 420mm) or even larger will look great.
Personally, we prefer the more subtle pastel shades of the baby-pink digital cameras to the bold bright tone of the IXUS 130 but for some it is a better colour. We assume this is why Canon have in their latest models gone for one of each.(see also the pink IXUS 105)
Technically speaking, Canon have really raised the bar, and other players in the girls pink camera market will be playing catch up over the coming months.
The price however is not for the light-hearted (or faint-hearted) – the RRP of just under £300 rules this model out for many. A comparison of this model against sub £200 models makes the difference clear.
The Pink IXUS 130 is top of the range, and rightly so looks very very good. Once it is discounted down below the £240 mark – snap one up.
