When you think of ultra-compacts, you think of slim, pocketable cameras. The Canon IXUS i7 breaks the norm and comes up with a cute candy bar model that boasts a number of impressive new features. But before we get there, a little more on its looks.
Build
At a mere 96 x 45 x 24 mm size, the IXUS i7 is as small as a regular candy-bar phone, only a little thicker. It sports a dual colored/textured metal body that's available in 5 colors. The small form, as in all ultra-compacts doesn't allow much room for a proper grip, but the small size, with a relatively good thickness level never really lets the camera slip through.
Even the Sony Ericsson K750i stands taller than the IXUS i7
Due to the small size of the camera itself, the LCD screen is only 1.8 inches (diagonally). Though to me the screen size is definitely not worth complaining about, the preview I got on it was not really worth writing home about, primarily because of the high noise levels. Still the screen did its job well by giving a crisp, clear review image after a picture was taken. Moreover, the camera screen was tilt sensitive and it automatically turned the displayed image according to the direction that the camera was tilted in. Nice!
