Sensor Properties | |
In additional Ixus 190 has a Compact CMOS sensor with size of 6 x 5 mm² (0.24″ x 0.18″). Also Ixus 190’s image sensor has an effective resolution of around 20 megapixel. That’s roughly average and will be sufficient for most purposes. Photos with this resolution can easily be printed to A3 or A2 size. The Canon does not support recording RAW images. RAW images are stored as they come from the sensor, without any in-camera processing or sharpening. Converting to JPEG or other formats takes place on the computeand involves one extra processing step but will almost always result in superior image quality. |

|
Shutter | |
The Ixus 190’s shutter speed varies from 1/2000s to 15s. The highest shutter speed of the Canon is just 1/2000s. That’s no longer state of the art and may cause problems in challenging light conditions. |

Auto Focus Properties | |
The Ixus 190’s auto focus processor uses 9 AF points (or sensors). A basic rule of thumb says that the more AF points you have, the better. More AF points mean a better chance to have a point at the location of interest in a scene, a big plus in challenging situations (e.g. in low light). The Canon doesn’t support manual focussing. That can be an issue if the auto focus has problems with your subject or lighting. |

Flash Specs | |
The Ixus 190 features a built-in flash with a range of up to 4m (13 ft.). That’s on the low end and will only work for very close subjects. A hotshoe is missing from the Canon. |

Display Specs | |
The Ixus 190 features a monitor with a diagonal of 68.00mm (2.7 in.) and a resolution of c. 0.23 megapixel. That rather low resolution is no longer state of the art and will make it difficult to evaluate images on the display. Unfortunately, the Ixus 190’s monitor is not articulated. That can make it tricky to frame your subject in some situations, e.g. when taking selfies. The Ixus 190 does not feature a touch screen. Display characteristics at a glance: |
