Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti

It may be made of titanium, but it's what's on the inside that counts.

Canon Digital IXUS 900 Ti review

We look for any weaknesses under that titanium skin

Quick start-up times ; Fast shutter, response and focus times ; Excellent video results ; 10MP sensor

3x optical zoom ; Soft overall results

The IXUS 900Ti certainly offers a refined overall performance and will prove more than satisfactory in normal domestic use

Canon PowerShot SD900 review

The 10-megapixel Canon PowerShot SD900 manages to be stylish without being inconvenient or awkward. Its sturdy metal body, an attractive matte-gray with black accents, is smooth and slightly curvy, and at 6.7 ounces and 1.1 inches thick, it's just the...

Small and comfortable; responsive performance; decent images.

Few manual controls; noticeable fringing.

A very good compact camera, the 10-megapixel Canon PowerShot SD900 nonetheless falls short of its faster, more full-featured, albeit lower-resolution competitors.

Canon IXUS 900 Ti

A stylish IXUS compact

Stylish and a joy to operate, the 900 Ti falls short on image quality, sometimes failing to produce the crystal-clear results expected of such a pricey model

Ixus 900 Ti

The 900 Ti is one of Canon's pricier Ixus compact cameras. For not much over £200, you get a tough, attractive titanium body equipped with a generous 10mp sensor.

Despite the noise, the Ixus 900 doesn't disappoint. It's one of the better compact point-&-shoots

The 900 Ti is one of Canon's pricier Ixus compact cameras. For not much over £200, you get a tough, attractive titanium body equipped with a generous 10-megapixel sensor, but the camera lacks a few of its siblings' high-end features such as optical...

Canon - Digital IXUS 900Ti

Canon's Digital IXUS range has to be one of the most prolific of recent times, as it was only a blink ago that the IXUS 800 and 850 IS were released. Its latest offspring has opted ...

If you're a semi-pro or enthusiastic amateur with a predilection for style, this ultra-cool IXUS is undoubtedly for you. The 10MP CCD also means improved sharpness in larger prints, but otherwise the features are very similar to the considerably...

It's ten years since the first camera was launched in the Canon IXUS range, but Canon hasn't just upped the resolution stakes; this model also showcases its new DIGIC III image processor with Advanced Noise Reduction and Face Detection technology.

Canon IXUS 900 Ti

The IXUS range hits 10 megapixels with the 900 Ti. The Ti in the cameras name is there because the body is made out of titanium. This is another impressive camera from the IXUS range.

Build quality ; Picture quality ; Advanced movie features ; Design and style ; Viewfinder

It's not cheap ; Red eye ; Small memory card supplied

The Canon IXUS 900 Ti is an impressive digital camera. It has a very stylish design and with its titanium body the build quality is excellent. There are also 10 megapixels packed inside. Picture quality is up there with the very best for this type of...
