Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon PowerShot S410 4MP Digital Elph with 3x Optical Zoom
Customer Review: So compact and easy to use!
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I did a lot of research looking for a camera that I could throw in my purse/diaper bag and have it handy for everytime my kids would do something that I wanted to remember. The ease of handling this camera makes it nice for a busy mom of 3 small children. I was looking for a camera that was compact, sleek, pretty stylish and easy to turn on, point and shoot. My boys love looking at the pictures right after I take them and the handy screen on the back is a plus for all of us. When you're taking pictures of three kids you sometimes can't get everyone looking and/or smilling at the same time. With this camera I don't waste money on developing pictures that aren't up to my standards. I wind up taking at least 3-4 pictures before I get exactly what I want and then I just go back through the photos and erase what I don't want. It's so easy to download the pictures to Shutterfly.com and order right from there! This camera is a must!Customer Review: Incredible technology
Summary: 5 Stars
Amazing what can be packaged in such a small case. This camera takes incredible pictures. I had a Cannon digital camera before, and I was very happy with it, this one surpasses my expectations. The movies are very crisp, and look almost as good as if they were filmed with a camcorder. The only minus for the price it costs is you can't zoom in the movie mode once you start recording. I have a friend with an Olympis which does zoom in this mode but no sound, and the movies look like they are filmed on an old super8 movie; fun but I'll be keeping my Cannon. If you want to film in different perspectives just stop filming change the zoom, and shoot some more. Then make your movie with the easy to use software. Editing the movies with transitions is actually a lot of fun. If you set the price aside this camera is a very good value. You're not going to buy a camera every few months so spend the money, and get what you will really be happy with.Customer Review: Great Camera - for the amatuer to the enthusiast
Summary: 5 Stars
Amazing camera. Very easy to use in the auto mode for the amatuer photographer and the capabilities are unlimited if you are an enthusiast. Very intuitive menu features. Crisp impages, nice for short videos too. I plugged in a 512 Sandisk CF card and my wife went crazy clicking over 550 pictures in a 10 day trip. Night shots in complete darkness come out phenomenal using some basic speed and light settings (set the flash off and speed at 400ASA.) The camera is versatile and we used it for timer setting on a rough nature trail. With the tough casing did not have to worry about damaging the camera when setting it on the ground of dirt, just enough to keep the camera steady.
Only downside was that it does not have a good cover. Taking it in and out of the pocket the mode switches to video and gotta be careful particularly if u hand the camera to someone to take a snap of you.
Overall very pleased and highly recommend it.
Customer Review: BIG BANG FOR THE BUCK
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great 4 megapixel camera. As with all Canon PowerShot S series cameras, the S410 is very easy to use. Key features include a useful 3x optical zoom, bright 1.5" LCD screen, and movie video with sound mode. In addition, it focuses quickly, the flash is bright (sometimes too bright), and the battery life is generous. Not only does this camera have all the must-have features, it packs all that in a tiny body--you can easily carry this in (guys) your pocket or (gals) your purse. Plus it's packaged in a beautiful silver exterior. A must-have accessory is a much bigger CompactFlash memory card (get at least a 256MB card). An extra battery would also be helpful--since this camera comes with an external charger--so that you will always have a fresh battery handy. Plus, with the new SD200 and SD300 being produced by Canon, the price on this S410 camera has been dropping steadily. You should be able to get this for under $300 now.Customer Review: FANTASTIC Digital Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I've owned this Canon s410 for 3 months now, it replaced my s230, which I passed down to my son. I really loved my s230 and was hesitant about buying this one. All I can say is WOW! Don't know why I waited so long.
The picture quality from this camera is so much better than the s230. Of course I love the fact that it takes the same batteries and CF that my s230 took, as I have spares of both. The real thrill was how few blurred pictures I take now. LOL I have to be one of the worst photographers (snapshot shooters). When my husband looks at my pics lately, he asks me how come they are so good. This really is unusual for me.
The only thing I can attribute it too is the s410. This is a great camera for anyone, even a total camera klutz like me. I love to shoot pics, but nobody wanted to look at them before.
I highly recomend this camera, even though it's discontinued. If you can find one, buy it.
