Canon PowerShot S400 (Digital IXUS 400) Review

Canon announced the ultra-compact four megapixel, three
times optical zoom PowerShot S400 (AKA. Digital IXUS 400) just
a few days before PMA 2003. The PowerShot S400 is the latest in line
of Canon's ultra-compact PowerShot series, this camera packs a four megapixel
sensor and three times optical zoom lens into a package the same size
as PowerShot S230 (three megapixels, two times zoom, announced in September
2002). Unlike previous ultra-compact Powershot's this camera disposes
with the 'looks dirty easily' stainless steel case to be replaced with
an all new 'Cerabrite' material which is a mix of metal and ceramic. It's
still cool to the touch, doesn't show up fingerprints and doesn't scratch
easily.
The PowerShot S400 around the world
It's worth remembering that the PowerShot S400 is known by different
names around the world. Being based in the UK I was supplied with a 'Digital
IXUS 400', the only difference is the silk screened label on the front
and top.
- US/Canada: Canon PowerShot S400 Digital Elph

The Panasonic Lumix DC-G100 (G110 in some regions) is a mirrorless camera designed for vlogging. Its 20MP Four Thirds sensor is paired with clever tracking audio technology, but we have our reservations.
The Olympus PEN E-PL10 is the latest in the company's entry-level mirrorless line-up. It's a beginner-friendly camera that does many things well, but ultimately doesn't stand out amongst its competition.
The Nikon Coolpix P950 is a powerful superzoom compact camera, built around a 24-2000mm equivalent zoom lens. Successor to the popular P900, the P950 adds an improved EVF, Raw capture and 4K video. So is it worth $800?
The Fujifilm X-T4 brings image stabilization, faster shooting and a bigger battery to the X-T series. It's not without its shortcomings but we found it to be an excellent stills and video shooter.
With its unusual form factor can the Tourbox aid the editing process? Will its price and variety of tactile controls appeal to photo and video editors who would like to streamline their workflow?
