Canon has bulky been a lead prestige the film-based photography world, again has developed a proverbial field of digital cameras since well. In puerile history, their PowerShot Pro70 introduced exceptional impression quality and many "studio-friendly" features at the 1.7 mega pixel level in late 1998. Recently, they've made waves with a series of dig cams in exceptionally compact metal bodies, echoing the style of their wildly popular "ELPH" film cameras.

The latest addition to this line is the PowerShot S10, a full 2 mega pixel camera with a 2x optical zoom lens, packed into what's arguably the smallest body in the dig cam market. We predict that this compact form factor, combined with its exceptional image quality, will make it one of the more popular dig cam designs currently on the market.
