Rank 26 out of 34CHIP OnlineBeste Digitalkamera bis 200 Euro: Schöne Fotos zum kleinen PreisReleaseSeptember 2015

Wenn man sich nach einer neuen Kamera im Preissegment von weniger als 200 Euro umsieht, dann sollte man sich darüber im Klaren sein das Kompromisse gemacht werden müssen. Handelt es sich dann dabei noch um eine Kamera wie die IXUS 160 von Canon für nur etwa 80 Euro, sollte dies noch klarer sein...

Die Canon IXUS 160 zählt zu den wohl günstigsten Digitalkameras im Test. Dabei besitzt die Kompakte alles Essenzielle für die Foto- und Videografie: 20 Megapixel, 8fach-Zoom, HD-Filmmodus und zahlreiche Kreativfilter zum Beispiel. Doch wie der Preis siedelt sich auch die Gesamtleistung im unteren Bereich an.
