TrustedReviews has a comprehensive review of Canon’s IXUS 65 (a.k.a. PowerShot SD630). Tiny enough to slip in your pocket, the camera provides a 6.0MP CCD with 3x optical zoom, a large 3.0-inch LCD display, and an SD card slot. Here is the verdict.
The Canon IXUS 65 is a potentially lovely little camera which could have been one of the best pocket compacts on the market, with great build quality, stunning performance, attractive but functional styling and good value for money, but sadly it is let down by a number of major image quality issues, especially high-ISO image noise.
