Canon PowerShot SD10


PowerShot SD10 .jpg Billed as the worlds smallest 4.0 megapixel camera the Canon Powershot SD10 looks like a fun camera to use.

Design has obviously been a big part of the development of this camera as it comes in four rather retro looking styles. However the quality of image taken is also reportedly pretty decent.

In addition to the usual features we've come to expect from Canon, three new modes to PowerShots have been added to this model which I'd love to see on my A70.

1. Super Macro mode which allows auto-focusing on subjects as close as 1.2 inches from the lens (that is close!)

2. Quick Shot mode which reduces the time lag between pressing the shutter button and starting the exposure. This gets rid of that small but annoying delay that can kill spontaneity and be the difference between capturing a shot and missing it completely. (I'd kill for this on mine)

3. Clock Display mode shows year/month/day and hour/minute/second displays in Shooting Mode. Handy I guess, but its the first two that got my attention.

Digital Camera HQ gives the SD10 a rating of 4.41 stars.

The PC Mag review of the Canon Powershot SD10 gives the camera a rating of 3 stars and says 'the slim, elegant Canon PowerShot SD10 Digital Elph delivers good image quality and a fast burst mode. But it lacks an optical zoom lens and an optical viewfinder.'
