See it, use it, love it. Canon engineers turn streamlined into spectacular with PowerShot S400 Digital ELPH, creating a stunning 4.0 megapixel digital camera that's all about breathtaking performance and head-turning good looks. Leave it to Canon to bring you the exclusive DIGIC Imaging Processor. Cutting-edge technology delivers enhanced picture quality, faster processing speed and improved autofocus accuracy. All with decreased power consumption. Imagine DIGIC as your very own 24/7 photo whiz, and you'll get the idea. Right from the start - even if this is your first digital camera - you can look forward to exceptionally brilliant images. Pictures that capture the "WOW" of life without missing a beat. Think of PowerShot S400 Digital ELPH as a stylish, clever companion you always want to have around.

The unique beauty of the PowerShot S400 Digital ELPH lies in its carefree versatility. When you're ready to get really close to great times, the ingenious 3x optical zoom with superior glass lens delivers a focal range equivalent of 36-108mm on a 35mm camera. Paired with the digital zoom, you've got an 11x telephoto effect. And talk about sharp, the S400 showcases a remarkable 9-point AiAF autofocus system and single-point AF, for vibrantly defined images even when subjects are considerably off center.

PowerShot S400 is a work of art where every element synergies perfectly. Linked to the focusing system is dependable iSAPS technology for precise exposure and white balance for professional results in every shooting condition. Complementing this is automatic white balance for the most natural color. Plus a full range of ISO-equivalent speed settings for every brightness situation. PowerShot S400's Movie Mode setting provides up to 3 minutes of superior image quality and sound at 15 frames per second. There's a built-in editing feature. And you can choose all kinds of special image effects. Play movies on the LCD monitor and internal speaker, on the TV or on your computer. Clearly, the rewards of PowerShot S400 go on and on.

    My second graders love it!

    When I received a grant to buy a digital camera for a school project I read quite a few reviews. My students had been using my Powershot A40 so the size and ratings of the Elph seemed like a good choice. They quickly adapted to the different settin...gs and started shooting. Their photos are vibrant and clear. They run around with it at recess and in the classroom. There were three big surprises. When we printed pictures, the difference in clarity was extremely visible. (I guess that shouldn't have been a surprise.) The best two surprises came when I did some last minute printing on my Canon portable printer. The photos were sharper than my A40, and the camera had a cropping tool so that the picture could be altered even before it hit the computer. I LOVE THAT CONTROL!So.....the size is perfect for little hands. (and little purses) The automatic features are easy enough for most eight year olds. The pictures are sharp and clear. I love the close up feature. (8 inches or so) and of course, it looks great! You won't be sorry. I'm not. Get an extra battery though, they don't last that long. Read more Less

    Best point & shoot digital...period

    By explositoryjones  Jun 3, 2003 | 112 out of 116 found this Canon PowerShot S400 Digital ELPH review helpful

    I was looking for a compact point & shoot style camera with 4 megapixel or better and the s400 was the best thing out there. It's easy to learn & use and takes excellent images. Battery life is OK, but given the tiny size & weight I can't f...ault it. The smaller 320x240 video size is not a problem given the trade off of shooting up to 3 minutes of video at a time. Awesome feature. Get a bigger flash memory card and you're good to go. If you're a tweeker or a photo geek maybe you want a more feature rich camera, but if you want excellent image quality with smal size & weight and point and shoot ability, this is a no-brainer.

    Canon PowerShot S400 Digital Elph

    The well-designed, stainless steel Elph is one of the best point-and-shoot digital cameras around.Although Canon's PowerShot S400 is no longer the smallest model on the block, it still holds its own as the granddaddy of pocket-size cameras. The Digital Elph feels very solid--if a little heavy--and sports an elegant stainless steel body. It's easy to hold with one hand while taking pictures. We also like the straightforward control buttons on the back. Read more

    Good optics, a small size, enough resolution to produce prints up to 8 x 10, and capabilities beyond those of many point and shoot cameras make the S400 quite appealing. Read more
