This week Canon announced its new ELPH series cameras as well as its much-anticipated PowerShot G1 X. We got some hands-on time with the cameras today, and one of the most innovative new features is the face ID system. The application is child-weighted, so that younger subjects get preferential treatment when it comes to shooting group shots. There are a host of built-in image recognition tools for taking pictures of babies too, and the cameras… Read More

While the G1 X has definitely stolen some thunder, Canon also announced two new ELPH models. The ELPH 520 HS and the ELPS 110 HS will both use the same DIGIC 5 processor as the G1 X, so they should both have high-speed and low light capability in common with the new high-end, fixed lens device. Both cameras also have improved Smart AUTO technology. A new Face ID feature allows these cameras to recognize up to 12 people and you can actually… Read More

Canon has announced a slew of new cameras, chief among them being the much-anticipated PowerShot G1 X. The legacy brand has taken its sweet time answering the call of the mirrorless market, and while it doesn’t boast interchangeable lenses, there’s plenty else in the G1 X to take stock of.

This morning, Wells Fargo likely incurred the wrath of a few camera companies attending CES by accidentally leaking new releases via its advisor news (Canon Rumors is in the process of tracking down where Wells Fargo got the information). The story has since been pulled, but not before we (and the rest of the Internet) got a look at what’s to come. And what’s to come looks good. Namely, the G1X from Canon. Canon has long been quiet on the “third… Read More

When Markus Thompson dove into the water in Deep Bay outside of Vancouver, he probably didn't expect to see a rust-covered Canon EOS 1000D when scuba diving in the Pacific Ocean. Thompson was completing a biological survey when he spotted the camera off the end of a wharf. He was able to extract the SD card from the camera and access the pictures on the memory card after a thorough cleaning. He discovered that the camera had been lost in… Read More

The popular dSLR was even used to shoot an entire episode of House as well as car… Read More
