Canon PowerShot S400 Digital Cameras Plus Information
he 4 Megapixel Canon PowerShot S400 digital camera is capable of taking still images at 2,272 x 1,704 pixels–enough for a good quality A4 print. Resolutions go down to 640 x 480 for images you might only want to look at digitally. You can also capture video at 320 x 240 and 160 x 120 pixels.


The camera is very small indeed–smaller than earlier PowerShot models, and is easily pocket sized. There is what at first might seem a bewildering array of buttons around the casing, but in fact these provide excellent one-button-press access to most of the most used features, such as the 3x optical zoom which goes up to 11x when combined with digital zoom features, the macro mode, settings for the flash and self timer. For more advanced features like changing the shutter speed, which it is great to be able to do on a digital camera; you do need to delve into the LED a little further, though.

Canon PowerShot S400 Professional Reviews:

• imaging-resource reviewed the Canon PowerShot S400 and gave out”The four-megapixel CCD produces great image quality and accurate color, and the S400’s lens is better than that on many subcompact cameras. Representing the fourth generation in the ELPH series, the S400 maintains Canon’s reputation for great quality in a very portable digicam. My earlier characterization probably sums it up best: An excellent “all around” digicam, that just happens to live inside a super-compact case. Highly recommended.”

• * Stainless steel shell; up to 3 minutes of video with sound
• * Compatible with CompactFlash Type I cards; 32 MB card included

This is just a great camera but now outdated at 4mp. but if you don’t need the resolution, grab this. it’s unbreakable. mine’s been on every motorbike ride from lhasa to calcutta and most of the time i don’t even have it in the case. its scratched, dented, and the paint is worn off, but it still performs flawlessly. canon, the only way to go.

I’ve had this camera for quite a while now but a few days ago it just stopped working. I’m still able to view the pictures on the memory card but an error message (E18) comes up when I try to take a picture. I’m not sure what is wrong but this is the second Canon (the other camera was the PowerShot S60) I’ve owned that just stopped working for no apparent reason. I was planning to purchase the Powershot SD870IS but am now seriously reconsidering purchasing any Canon Digital Camera. They just don’t last.
