The Canon Powershot was the first of Canon’s digital cameras to be released. This pioneering camera, introduced in 1996, was designed to be compact without sacrificing on features.
Slightly bigger than the Ixus, the Powershot range generally offers better picture quality and is ideal for amateur photographers who want to improve their craft.
The Powershot camera range is divided into a variety of series, each offering a different type of feature. For example, the A series, ranging from point-and-shoot cameras to more professional models, is known as being easy and fun to use, while the D series is waterproof, freeze-proof and shock-proof.
