Canon USA Powershot S200 2.0mp 2x Optical Zoom/ 5x Digital Zoom Camera

WHAT'S HOT: The Powershot S200's most compelling features are its size and weight. It's very light--7.7 ounces with its battery--and very small, slipping into a shirt pocket easily. In fact it's even lighter than its predecessor, the S110. The new...

The S200's rechargeable lithium-ion battery held out for 180shots, or 63 minutes. That's substantially below the average for all thecameras we've tested, though it beat the FineCam S4 by about 10 minutes and 30shots. A replacement battery costs...

Digital Cameras - Canon PowerShot S200 Digital Camera Review, Information, Specifications

Camera Operation Like the rest of the ELPH line, the S200's user interface is straightforward and uncomplicated, with a clear and concise LCD menu system and efficient external controls. The 2002 model year updated the interface design to incorporate...

Review: Canon PowerShot S200

Sleek; Easy to use; Wi-Fi/GPS enabled; 1/1.7" wide CMOS sensor

Glossy finish; Low optical zoom; No support for RAW format; Few video recording options; Colour blind

The Canon PowerShot S200 is quite an interesting successor to the S110 that was unveiled last year. That Canon doesn’t have too many point and shoot options with large-sized sensor does damage its position. After these two 1/1.7-inchers, the next...
