Canon Tricks Out for ELPH

Nothing says "Happy Birthday" like jewelry, right?

Canon apparently agrees: the company’s ELPH camera line is turning 10 years old, and in celebration the company plans to roll out a sweepstakes on its PowerShot Web site which will give 10 winners customized, jewel-encrusted Canon PowerShot Digital ELPH cameras created by the NYC Peach design team.

In addition, each winner and a guest will be brought to New York City for VIP, private seating treatment at the Z100’s Jungle Ball 2006 on December 15, 2006 at Madison Square Garden. Winners will receive round trip airfare, deluxe hotel accommodations, plus a limo to and from the concert: the winners will also by hosted by on of te concert performers at a pre-show event.

Canon also plans to give away five more jeweled ELPHs on January 9, 2007, in Las Vegas to benefit the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Contest registration will go live on the PowerShot site in late October.

How to remove location data from your iPhone photos

How to transfer photos from an iPhone to an iPhone

We all love making memories, and a great way to collect those memories is to take a quick snap of a gorgeous landscape, a party in full swing, or a particularly incredible meal. The Apple iPhone now also adds a location to your pictures, meaning it can collate those images together into a location-themed album, or show you all the shots you've taken in a specific location. It's a fun little addition, and it's one that adds a lot of personality to the Photos app.
