About the Canon IXY DIGITAL 320
The Canon IXY DIGITAL 320, released in October 2002, has a 1/2.7-inch CCD and a 35-70 mm lens at F2.8, described as roughly 2x optical zoom. The 320 in the name refers to its resolution, and the short zoom range keeps the lens compact.
Its monitor is a 1.5-inch low-temperature polysilicon TFT with 100% coverage. The body measures 87.0 x 57.0 x 26.7 mm and weighs about 180 g without battery or card, the same footprint as the IXY DIGITAL 200a. Power comes from a dedicated rechargeable lithium-ion battery, with a dedicated AC adapter listed as an optional extra. Images are written to CompactFlash. A thin case, a bright F2.8 wide setting and a short 2x zoom sum up what this small early IXY DIGITAL offers.
Buying one used
The camera takes a dedicated rechargeable Li-ion battery; confirm that the pack fits the body and still holds a charge. Media is CompactFlash, so test card recognition. Check the lens and the 1.5-inch monitor.
