Canon PowerShot S40 prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot S40 was produced on Oct 2, 2001. For today the lowest price for the device is 149.99.
The Canon PowerShot S40 is a compact camera. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The camera has different automatic modes but you won't capture pictures of the same great quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The PowerShot S40 can shoot photos at 4 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The PowerShot S40 has a 1/1.8' (7.144 x 5.358 mm) sensor which means that the camera will take photos with not so high quality as cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the PowerShot S40 has portable size. And if you want to shoot photos of the professional quality pay attention to Leica M10.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1500 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway you will manage to make photos of moving objects. The lens is fixed and the photographer can't change it. The lens has weak 3x optical zoom.
