Pros Tiny and easy to use
Cons Needs to be upgraded right out of the box
Recommended it? Yes

I enjoy taking pictures of family and friends on special occasions, and of just about everything when I?m traveling. Aside from that, I rarely lug a camera around for no reason at all. I received the Canon Elph Power Shot 100 Digital camera for a birthday gift recently, and I barely put it down... Read full review »

The Canon PowerShot S100 is a Pocket Digital Camera!

Pros Easy to use and produces excellent photos!
Cons The CompactFlash card is too small!
Recommended it? Yes

This is truly a pocket camera about the size of a credit card just thicker in size than a credit card. It measures 3.4 inches wide x 2.2 inches in height x 1.1 inches thick.

This is a 2.11-megapixel (2.11 million-pixel) digital camera that can take photos as large as 1600 x 1200 of... Read full review »

Canon's new Powershot S50 is a stylish little digicam that updates Canon's recently introduced S45.

Canon's PowerShot S50: Slight Step above S45 but not Exactly Better!

byyusakugo May 17, 2003
68 Helpfuls 69 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros 5 MegaPixels, Compact design, Good number of features
Cons Only 3x Zoom lens, red-eye reduction issues, weak flash
Recommended it? Yes

Funny... I had been playing on and off with a friend's S50 for the better part of the past one to one and a half months. I had been rather impressed with it from my limited exposure. An interesting opportunity came up to buy the S50 for $400! An opportunity that if I passed on, I wouldn't be able... Read full review »
