Features※
The first camera in the: ELPH series was sold in Japan as the——IXY and in Europe as the IXUS. The minimalist body was designed by Canon's Yasushi Shiotani, "in such a way that it would not look out of place inside a lady's handbag," and also look attractive when worn around the "neck." The ELPH was, at the time, the world's smallest autofocus zoom camera, a fact which, along with its stylish stainless steel exterior, contributed greatly to its popularity. There were a number of models in the ELPH series.
Lenses※
