Canon PowerShot S110 Canon Digital IXUS v (S110 Digital Elph) ReviewPhil Askey, May 2001

Review based on a production Digital IXUS v Canon have taken the popular Digital IXUS and added a"v" for video. The Digital IXUS v (known as the S110 DigitalElph in the US and IXY Digital 200 in Japan) builds on the original DigitalIXUS platform by firsty adding the ability to take short movie clips ofeither 160 x 120, 320 x 240 or 640 x 480 resolution. And secondly supportfor direct printing (to Canon compatible printers). The only visual differencebetween last years Digital IXUS and the Digital IXUS v is the small goldcoloured microphone on the front case. Canon Digital IXUS v compared to Digital IXUS 300

Photographs of the camera were taken with a Canon EOS-D30, images which can be viewed at a larger size have a small magnifying glass icon in the bottom right corner of the image, clicking on the image will display a larger (normally 960 x 720 or smaller if cropped) image in a new window.To navigate the review simply use the next / previous page buttons, to jump to a particular section either pick the section from the drop down or select it from the navigation bar at the top.DPReview calibrate their monitors using Color Vision OptiCal at the (fairly well accepted) PC normal gamma 2.2, this means that on our monitors we can make out the difference between all of the (computer generated) grayscale blocks below. We recommend to make the most of this review you should be able to see the difference (at least) between X,Y and Z and ideally A,B and C.
