The Canon IXY i represents the third generation of the IXY camera series , ushered in a new era in Advanced Photo System compact camera design with its innovative “box-and-circle” design and ultra-compact “card-size” body.
The IXY i departs from its predecessors with a sleek new-generation design that contrasts a soft, rounded aluminum body casing with chrome-plated fittings. The rugged but lightweight new unit also features an innovative capsule-shaped body with a slim-line 2:1 aspect ratio for exceeding portability and eye-catching appeal, and incorporates for the first time a tidy sliding lens cover that protects the lens from scratching.
The IXY i features a 23.5-54mm 2.3x zoom lens, equivalent to a 29-68mm zoom lens on a 35mm camera, enabling superior performance in a wide variety of shooting environments. Canon has also incorporated the world’s first combined AF/AE (Auto-Focus/Auto-Exposure) CMOS sensor in its passive 3-point AiAF (Artificial intelligence Automatic Focusing) system.
User convenience and camera functionality are enhanced by a large LCD operating display panel located on the back of the unit that is backlit for easy operation even in low-light conditions.
