Digital Camera Info reviews the Canon PowerShot SD40:

“The newest Digital Elph comes with 7.1 megapixels and a Digic III image processor with some trendy technology. The Canon PowerShot SD40 not only has a sleek sturdy body, but it also includes effective face detection technology that ensures portraits are always sharply focused. The SD40 has plenty of other great perks too: a high-quality movie mode, a wide ISO range that allows for low light photography, and interesting My Colors modes that make for fun effects. Despite all this, though, the Canon SD40 isn’t all that it should be for its $349 retail price. Canon really skimped on this camera’s components. The 2.4x optical zoom lens has limited apertures and a horrible control. The built-in flash unit is undersized and hardly lights anything beyond arm’s length. The LCD screen measures only 1.8 inches, making up only a third of the camera’s back. While this PowerShot may be one of Canon’s most attractive models, it is full of trade offs in terms of quality and performance.”
