Canon Ixus Powershot Difference
What is the difference between Canon IXUS and Powershot cameras?

I'm looking to upgrade my Canon Powershot A530, my dad has one and is a camera IXUS fantastic, but I wonder what is the difference between the models and Powershot IXUS?

I am a 16 year old girl and I need a camera to take clear photos for my blog and is simple to use.

Powershot is the model name in the U.S., IXUS is the model name in the UK and probably Europe. For example, the Powershot SD780 IS, which I recommend, is also known as IXUS 100. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_post.asp?method=sidebyside&cameras=canon_sd780is&show=all
