Available in various colors, the Canon Digital Ixus 80 IS was reviewed by RegHardware. As a compact camera, the Ixus 80 comes with 2.5-inch LCD, 8 MP CCD sensor, 3x optical zoom, up to ISO 1600 sensitivity, and DIGIC III processor. It also has various capability that suitable for beginner shooter such as face detection plus 18 shooting modes and color effect.

Verdict:
So is the Ixus 80 IS a mere cosmetic makeover of the Ixus 70 IS? Not quite. It’s got a few more pixels on its CCD and the red eye reduction and face detection systems seem better, but all in all, there’s not a great big difference between the two. We felt that the Ixus 70 IS was more an evolutionary model than a revolutionary offering and the same goes for the Ixus 80 IS.
