Canon is continuing to expand its digital camera range with the launch of the PowerShot A50. Designed for the business and home market, the camera has a range of features including a 2.5X zoom lens, which is equivalent to a 28-70mm lens in 35mm format.
The latest small and lightweight offering fits easily into a shirt pocket, measures 103 x 68 x 37mm (w x h x d) and weighs in at 260grams. High resolution images of 1280 x 960 pixels can be created, as well as an optional 640 x 480 resolution for on-screen applications such as Web sites and CD-ROMs.
Images are stored on CompactFlash cards, which can hold up to 23 images on an 8MB capacity card when captured using "large/fine" mode, and up to 43 images when captured in "large/normal" mode. Larger capacity cards including 15MB, 30MB and 48MB are also available.
