Many small form factor cameras such as the IXUS/SD series only have one real aperture setting, which is commonly f/2.8 at wide-angle (i.e. when the camera is not zoomed in at all). The lens in all point-and-shoot cameras (and some D/SLR zoom lenses) has a variable maximum aperture value (lowest f number), which means Canon will list the camera with zoom specs 6.2 - 18.6mm and aperture f/2.8 - 4.9. In this case, the maximum aperture will be f/2.8 when the camera is at its widest focal length (6.2mm) and increases as you zoom in until the telephoto setting (of 18.6mm) is reached with an f-stop maximum value of f/4.9. That is, when zoomed in at 18.6mm the camera is at f/4.9 and cannot go any lower (i.e. to f/2.8).

That is, when zoomed in at 18.6mm the camera is at f/4.9 and cannot go any lower (i.e. to f/2.8). This is why there are different aperture values when zooming in, despite these cameras having a single fixed aperture.
