Hmm did you notice a thing ...Canon 260HS is from powershot series and 255HS is from IXUS series

What Is the Difference between a Ixus Camera and a Powershot One?
Answer
The notable difference between a powershot camera an Ixus and camera is that the powershot is designed for people who want more control over the pictures they take and has many control settings, while the Ixus is made for people who just want great pictures and nothing more. Ixus are also slim, light and compact while powershots are big and hefty; otherwise the two camera lines are digital and are made by Canon

:) read reviews of both

and about manual controls.. if chdk of ixus 255 is released.. then will it be on par with the sx260 in terms of manual controls.

@nac .
im sorry bro .. yes its a offer one cant refuse.. but as the camera will also be used by my family ..my father is insisting on purchasing it from local and asking me to choose between sony nikon and canon only.. :(

even after chdk you wont get manual controls...I dont think its possible ...the PASM mode are available in powershot models and IXUS models are just simple cam for family use.
