'As an added convenience, Canon PowerShot digital cameras also accommodate MultiMedia MMC memory cards, as well as standard SD memory cards and the new, high-capacity SDHC memory cards.'
'Chromatic aberration is high at wide angle, showing bright coloration on either side of the target lines.'
'Noise significantly jumps at ISO 1600, rendering shots nearly unusable.'
'the resolution of the screen hasn't improved since the A710 -- there are just 115,000 pixels here.'
'colors are very saturated - to the point that they just don't look natural anymore and contrast starts to get lost.'
'Samsung's proprietary ASR image stabilization system helps to reduce camera shake and image blur during longer exposures and in situations where holding the camera steady is impossible or a tripod is unavailable.'
'Unfortunately, Canon skimped big time on the screen resolution (there are just 85,000 pixels)'
'he A540's images got rather noisy; at anything above ISO 200, the noise pattern was noticeable and distracting, and the colors become flat and dull.'
'Solid image quality, usable ISO 800 performance, and a full set of manual controls make the Canon PowerShot A540 an excellent choice for photo enthusiasts looking for an almost-pocketable second camera, or for budding photographers who aren't ready to move up to a superzoom EVF model or digital SLR.'
