Amazon.com Product Description

Canon updates its popular S-series PowerShot digital camera line with the 5-megapixel S60. It features a number of enhancements over the previous S50 model, including larger optical zoom (3.6x versus 3x), a closer macro zoom distance, larger video resolution, support for conversion lenses, and a higher capacity battery.

Optics and Resolution The PowerShot S60 has a 5-megapixel sensor with a maximum resolution of 2,592 x 1,944 pixels, enough detail for 4-by-6-inch to 20-by-30-inch (poster size) photos. Other resolution modes include 2048 x 1536 (3MP, 1600 x 1200 (2MP), 1024 x 768, and 640 x 480. It features a 3.6x optical zoom and 4.1x digital zoom for a total 14.8x zoom. The lens features Canon's new UA (Ultra-high refractive index, Aspherical) lens, allowing for the design of a more compact lens--making the S60 almost 8% thinner than the S50. The 28-100mm focal length range expands to 200mm with the addition of an optional 2x tele-converter.

Canon's powerful DIGIC image processor provides a huge capacity for complex assessment of the scene to be captured. The PowerShot S50 uses information from the zoom position, scene brightness, and other systems to determine what sort of subject is being photographed in order to optimize AF speed, exposure accuracy, and white balance performance.

Movie Mode
The S60's movie mode has been upgraded to a maximum resolution of 640 x 480 (10 frames per second); it also offers 320 x 240 and 160 x 120 modes (15 frames per second). Individual movie clips are limited to 3 minutes maximum per clip (and 30 seconds maximum for 640 x 480 mode).

More Features
For beginners, the camera is point-and-shoot simple. Just twist the dial to Auto and start snapping pictures. The PowerShot S60 offers a myriad of setting options, including three light metering modes, white balance presets with two positions for custom settings, exposure and focus bracketing, manual focus and AF lock, aperture and shutter-speed priority, and adjustable ISO-equivalent sensitivity.

The PowerShot S60 features 13 shooting modes, including subject-based modes and semi-auto modes such as aperture priority. Photo Effects are an easy way to add creative dimension to your photography, with settings including Vivid, Neutral, Low Sharpening, Sepia, Black & White and Custom. A fast sequence mode allows a maximum frame rate of 2 frames per second, maintained for up to eight images. A new Macro Function lets you shoot as close as 2 inches with incredible detail: the shortest focal length of any Canon compact digital camera not equipped with Super Macro.

The nine-point AiAF lets you focus your subject no matter where it appears in the viewfinder. For more freedom, FlexiZone AF/AE let you select which part of the frame you wish to focus on without moving your camera.

Other features include:

Large 1.8-inch LCD monitor
Built-in flash with auto, on, off, manual, slow-synch, and red-eye reduction modes
Simultaneous RAW and JPEG file recording
15 second to 1/2000 sec shutter speeds
Intelligent Orientation Sensor displays your images properly rotated during playback on the LCD screen and your computer screen

Storage and Transfer
The S60 uses CompactFlash cards to store images, and it's compatible with Type I or Type II cards, including Microdrives. It also supports the FAT32 format for cards larger than 2 GB. The included 32 MB card holds approximately 21 images at the Large/Fine setting. It connects to Macs and Windows-based PCs via a USB 1.1 connection.

Direct Printing/Sharing
The S60 incorporates Canon's new Print/Share button that speeds and simplifies printing to compatible Canon and PictBridge enabled printers. It also offers one-touch image transfer to Windows XP, Me, 2000, and 98 computers for use with image processing programs, uploading to the Internet, or placement in e-mail. When connected to a Canon Compact Photo printer, a Movie Print mode divides the selected clip into equal parts and prints thumbnails of a maximum 63 equally spaced frames onto a single sheet of Postcard Size Paper.

Power and Size
The camera is powered by the rechargeable lithium-ion battery NB-2LH, which provides approximately 240 shots with the LCD on and 550 shots without the LCD. It measures 4.5 x 2.2 x 1.5 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 8.1 ounces (without battery).

What's in the Box
This package contains the Canon PowerShot S60 digital camera, 32 MB CompactFlash card, rechargeable lithium-ion battery (NP-2LH), battery charger, wrist strap, USB and A/V cables, CD-ROM with Digital Camera Solutions, ArcSoft Camera Suite, and drivers, and printed operating instructions.

SMALL RESERVATIONS.......2006-02-19

This was my first digital camera and was selected primarily for it's wide angle lens which I find more usefull. The lens quality could be better, but seems to be available only in a more expensive SLR. No manual included with the ARCSOFT PHOTO STUDIO software. You can download this free from the web site (http://www.arcsoft.com/support/downloads).

An Amazing Camera.......2006-01-04

Even though I'm not a professional photographer, working in the film industry has made photography a very serious hobby of mine. I originally bought the Canon S50, which I was very happy with. However a defective part led me to send my camera back to Canon, who replaced it with the S60 over a year ago. This is a wonderful camera for people who are serious about photography but not yet ready to purchase a digital SLR. It takes great images with a very respectable mega pixel rate. What I love about this camera is you have the option of manually controlling every aspect of your shot when it really counts (shutter speed, focus, F-stop, etc.), or if your at a party, set it to auto and it becomes a point-and-shoot, easy enough for even your most inebriated friend to take snapshots. The best of both worlds! A good, near professional quality, camera at a good price.

Love this camera!.......2005-12-28

I got this for Christmas last year... and it's so easy to use and the resloution is amazing! Strongly recommend to anyone with kids... captures their every great expression and even every blade of thier hair in fantastic detail!

One Critical Note.......2005-10-27

I previously owned a Canon S-30, a 3-megapixel, which performed adequately for four years. Therefore, I was pretty much sold on the S-60 after reading Consumer's Reports and the ratings of this and other similar quality cameras on Amazon. After only a relatively short ownership period, I have found that the camera works as advertised. Some advantages over the previous design include the higher meapixel resolution, a larger LCD screen, greatly improved menu controls, and a noticeable speed difference as to when the camera is ready for the next shot.

Although I bought a 512 MB compact flash card with the camera, I was also able continue using a CF card from the old camera, its battery, and charger. A distinct advantage as these items run $30+/- each.

One critical note, however, was that I was never able to connect the camera directly to my computer to download the images (A Dell Dimension 8250 running XP SP2). Each time I connected the USB wire, my computer would not recognize the "device." After several emails to the Canon support staff, we tried everything from re-installing the software supplied with the camera to using troubleshooting from "InstallShield." No success!

My solution to the problem, since I was determined to keep the camera, was to purchase a USB 2.0 Hi-speed Reader (SanDisk SDDR-88-A15 8-in-1 no longer available on Amazon). It installed without problem, and I am able to download images by removing the CF card from the camera. A minor inconvenience.

Canon S60.......2005-10-24

Great Camera! Also own S70, like it so much we bought the S50 as a second camera.
Best built in wide angle zoom currently available, nice selection of control Manual thru Program, good battery life.

Product Description

LTO Ultrium 1 cleaning tapes are equipped with a computer memory chip (just like the data tape). The chip stores various information and it has an embedded code that is recognized by the compatible drive's firmware. Once the cleaning cartridge is used to capacity (50 times in the case of a Type I cleaning tape), the drive will no longer accept the cleaning tape and will eject the tape, prohibiting further use. This is very different than other tape formats that will continue to cycle the over-used cleaning tape, regardless of the number of times it has been used.Fujifilm offers you this LTO Ultrium 1 cleaning cartridge for IBM tape drives.

I'll be short with review.
Nice little thing to have around. I am using it on my Rc planes to take aerial videos when flying my planes.
Nicest thing in it is 128MB internal memory and built in battery.
Like I said in the title, wait until the price gets down to around $30 and get it for your kids.

Panasonic constantly improves its popular PanaBlack televisions. The glass in Panasonic's signature PanaBlack picture tube is darker than conventional tubes to help combat the picture-degrading effects of ambient light. The company's high-end model, the CT-27D21, is equipped with three sets of A/V input jacks for connecting to outside sources.A/V input jacks link your outside sources directly to audio and video circuits in the TV set, bypassing the tuner. This direct connection allows for optimum picture reproduction. It has a special Al (Artificial Intelligence) Sound - it automatically monitors and checks the sound volume and quality. Most interesting feature is its Color Picture-in-Picture capability - it allows you to monitor two different pictures simultaneously. And its Lighted Universal remote control allows you to control it even in the darkness of the night.

Extremely Versatile and Indestructible Camera.......2005-11-29

I first purchased this camera in the spring of 2002. Since then it has very well documented my US Navy Deployments. It has taken decent photographs and digital-video movies of places like Venice Italy, Greece, The United Arab Emirates, And the U.S. Virgin Isles. It has travelled passed the sound barrier and taken shots while doing inverted 5g Aerobatics in an F-14Tomcat. It's been through the desert heat of a Persian Gulf Summer and the Cold of a North Atlantic Storm. And to top it off has survived my now four year old daughter and still ticking for my two year-old son. Needless to say this camera is INDESTRUCTIBLE!!!

The photos were more than adequate for viewing on a Computer Screen. Some photos were printed out onto a 5x7 and looked very good. In all it preserved the moment wonderfully. There is a little pause from the time you press the shutter button until it actually goes 'click' and takes the shot but it is a minor thing.

The Camera software is easy to use, the four year old is quite adept at it and knows more about doing things like stop motion films than her daddy. She loves to animate her stuffed animals.

I am totally satisfied with this camera and continue to use it for quick snapshots.

Good as a webcam. Horrible as a digital camera.......2004-02-02

I've had the Clicksmart 510 for about a year now.
My main use for this camera is mostly as a webcam.
The quality is really good if used as a webcam.
If using it as a digital camera, the quality is horrible. Using excessive light might do it some justice. Batteries last a long time with this camera as well.

Loving it!.......2003-10-29

I've been playing around with this camera for about a month now and my experience has been very good.

First, the cons:

The installation was a hassle for me because, for some reason, the software CD that comes with it didn't download. This problem was fixed by just going to Logitech's main site and downloading it from there. I have Windows XP Home Ed.

Pictures aren't always centered (within crop marks), especially upclose. I've tried to take a very upclose picture of a rose and ended up with the side petals and stem. The camera was held VERY still and for about 10 seconds to make sure it came out right. Never did. Not-so-upclose pictures are no problem.

The cover to the batteries compartment seems very flimsy, since it's plastic and already showing some slight wear around the edges.

Putting batteries in, because the signs are on the cover/latch and you gotta be somewhat coordinated.

Flash is VERY overexposed. Not reasonable to use even in dimest of conditions, because it washes everything out. It works better without flash. If you ABSOLUTELY need to use flash, use the automatic flash.

The webcam needs plenty of light to show proper color.

The waiting time while taking Flash pictures. It lasts about 10 seconds,varies, and makes taking spontaneous pictures impossible.

THE PROs:

Picture quality is superb for the amount of money I paided.

I don't know why so many people complain about batteries but I'm still using the ones I recieved with the camera! I try to conserve them by putting them in ONLY when I need to take pictures and taking them out when I'm done. I've already taken 100+ pictures. This camera saves the pictures without the need for batteries to be in use.

I've thrown this in my bookbag, with about 20 pounds worth of stuff and it's survived without a scratch!

It's just fun! The software includes a "survelliance feature" that turns the camera on when it detects motion. I'm thinking of trying it out one day on my brothers.

With all that being said, I would recommend this camera to anyone that just wants to have fun with photography and get beautiful results!

Pathetic digital camera; decent webcam........2003-09-27

You get what you pay for. This camera is a few things, but what it is NOT is a standalone digital camera. If you are looking for a digital camera, look elsewhere. When used as a standalone digital camera, it will take about 10 pictures (about 5 with flash on) and then the batteries go dead.

It works decently as a webcam though - the saving grace is the bundled software which lets you do neat stuff like motion detection, etc. But all in all, not worth the megabucks for just a glorified webcam.

awesome camara.......2003-04-11

I bought this camera around christmas time, I wanted a digital camera to take some pictures with and one i could use on the web.This one is really nice,pictures print out real nice up to 5x7 or so then they begin to look a little shabby.
Oh it does like batteries. Ha Ha Ha.
But it's about the best all around camera for the computer.

Many years of refinement..........2001-09-25

Sony monitors have been around forever, but I've been working with different generations of Sony monitors for the past 4 years, and the latest Trinitron is nearly perfect. The image is sharp and clear from center to edge, and if there's any curvature in the screen vertically or horizontally I can't detect it.

They also finally got the controls right; a four-direction button adjusts brightness/contrast by default, and is also used to adjust the other settings when the on screen menu is active.

A detachable monitor cable would have made this monitor perfect, but it's only a minor annoyance. It's not the cheapest monitor around, but it's a Sony, and you know the Trinitron CRT still will be looking great long into the future.

Great image and full control..........2002-05-22

The image is perfect! After some minor ajusts you are ready to go! The on-screen controls allow the user tweak most everything!

You just get mad at the two thin copper wires dividing the screen in 3 stripes. According to SONY, it is part of the Trinitron technology and must be there. Well, I can tell I no longer "see" these lines... :-)

The monitor is a little deep, but I have enough space on my desktop. So, I'd recomment anyone who buys a VAIO computer to go for it. The LCD prices are still relatively high and the nanotube monitors are promising to hit the market late this year, lowering a lot the street price for flat pannel monitors.

Oh, of course, the design is very nice! You'll love it!!!
