Back in 2004 I was using a Canon iXUS I and it was not at all bad compared to my Sigma DSLR which could only be described as a disaster.

The Digital IXUS (IXY Digital in Japan and PowerShot Digital ELPH in US and Canada) is a series of digital cameras released by Canon. It is a line of ultracompact cameras, originally based on the design of Canon's IXUS/IXY/ELPH line of APS cameras.

The same camera models were released in Europe, the US, and Japan under different names. The cameras themselves were identical apart from the front fascia, according to the parts lists. The Canon model number on the bottom is consistent between marketing names. 

The coastal suburb of Dún Laoghaire is popular for strolls on the East Pier, and locally caught fish and chips. The National Maritime Museum of Ireland has nautical art and artefacts inside a 19th-century sailors’ church, while the harbour is a busy hub for fishing, water sports and cruises. Nearby Sandycove is home to the James Joyce Tower and Museum, as well as the sheltered beach and bathing spot at Forty Foot.
