Digital Cameras

The Powershot Canon digital camera offers a few extra features over a standard consumer digital camera, offering a few extras without adding a lot to the price.

Canon digital cameras are well know and the Powershot range gets a lot of good press. Canon digital cameras tend to place the Powershot strictly in the consumer range, offering the standard features expected. The Powershot A590 Canon digital camera gives a little extra with more zoom, higher resolution and more solid look and shaping.

Here are the main features of this Canon digital camera.

• 8.0 megapixels
• 4x optical zoom
• 4x digital zoom
• 16x zoom (total)
• 2.5″ LCD screen
• Flash
• 3264 x 2448 maximum picture resolution
• 640 x 480 maximum movie resolution
• ISO 80/100/200/400/800/1600

The extra zoom will come in handy for taking long shots on the Canon digital camera. Most Canon digital cameras tend to have up to 3x optical zoom and the 4x zoom will give that little bit extra closeup.

8.0 megapixels gives plenty of resolution, especially for pictures that are going to be printed. At maximum resolution you can safely print up to 8.2″ x 10.9″.

The wide range of automatic settings allow very easy point-and-shoot pictures with this Canon digital camera. To get the best shots however, take some time to get used to the manual settings.

Overall this is a good camera offering higher specs without giving up the usual consumer digital camera goodness.

A red digital camera at a decent price, offering 7.1 megapixels and 4x digital zoom, the Canon digital camera serves as a good day-to-day camera for taking family photos and scenery.

There are four colors to choose from, just the colors are different, but I’ll have a look at the red digital camera. Here’s a quick breakdown of the major features of the Powershot red digital camera.

• 7.1 Megapixels maximum
• 3072 x 2304 maximum picture resolution
• 640 x 480 movie resolution
• 3.4x optical zoom
• Autofocus
• 2.5 inch LCD display
• 80/100/200/400/800/1600 ISO equivalents

Simplicity is the keyword here, but combined with some decent extra settings. Picture quality is more than enough to make good quality prints if they are needed. The pictures might need to be shrunk for use on the web though. The picture settings can be changed however, so you can take lower quality than the maximum.

Taking low-res movies is a plus. The maximum video resolution for this red digital camera is 640 x 480. This is actually 4x the quality of video you find on YouTube, which usually only shows 320 x 240. It is easy to put the videos onto a DVD and send them along to your friends, or just upload them. The quality is not the same as a digital video camera, but does the trick for most things.

The wide range of ISO settings is a nice extra. With more ISO settings with higher values the camera can be forced to take pictures quicker, shortening the exposure time. This also helps to avoid blurred images for those with unsteady hands (like myself). I have always used a 400 ISO setting unless I am using a tripod. Bear in mind that the ISO figures might not be completely accurate, but give a good indication.

The zoom is decent, there is a flash, and it takes MMD and SD memory.

Underwater digital cameras are quite rare. An underwater digital camera case is the easiest way to use your current camera underwater. The camera itself is unaltered, so it’s still convenient to use for day-to-day photos.

This underwater digital camera case is for the Canon SD1100 digital camera. Cases are made specifically for certain cameras, so there is not much chance of sharing between different brands, although similar models might just work, or at least allow a certain amount of functionality.

The downside of the underwater digital camera case is that it is quite expensive, you can get a digital camera for less. However the case allows you to use the camera where you never could before. For those who are keen on snorkeling, diving, vacations by the beach, or any activities where the camera might get wet, then this underwater digital camera case is ideal.
