The Canon IXUS 285 offers everything that is most basic: automated photo modes, a standard screen, a Full HD video mode at 30 fps. Its compactness and ease of use are its main assets. The rest is rather ordinary, both in terms of image quality and the responsiveness of the device. If you have a few euros more to spend, prefer the Sony HX60 or the Canon SX710 HS, certainly thicker, but more versatile.
