Three new PowerShots from Canon launched
26 Aug 2008

Three new ten-megapixel compact cameras have been added to the Canon PowerShot range, according to reports.
Pocket Lint states that the manufacturer has boosted its range with units that are around 25 per cent slimmer than their predecessors and are expected to be available next month.
The Canon PowerShot A1000 IS is noted as a replacement for the A580 and the Canon PowerShot A2000 IS was suggested as the successor to the manufacturer’s A720.
It adds that the third in the selection, the Canon PowerShot E1, “has been launched with the claim that it is designed by women for women bringing ‘head-turning, feminine style’ to the range”.
Easy Mode will feature on all models and will be just one of 17 various shooting modes that can be used alongside face and motion detection as well as red-eye management.
The Canon PowerShot A580 is an eight-megapixel model available now for under £100.
