The Canon PowerShot S500 Digital ELPH is similar to the S410 but features a 5 megapixel CCD identical to that found in the PowerShot S50 and G5, a 2.2 frames per second burst mode and a 640 x 480 pixel movie mode. It is compact enough to slip into a small purse, and light enough to carry all day in the front pocket of your trousers. Cachet, class, elegance and style are words that aptly describe it. Adding megapixel power to the popular S400 Digital Elph, Canon's PowerShot S500 bumps up the resolution to 5 megapixels--providing richer details and improved clarity. Elegantly designed and super compact, the S500 has a protective stainless steel shell with a celabrite finish, which mixes metals and ceramics to produce a tough cool-toned exterior that is visually stunning. It also features a 3x optical zoom, high-resolution video capture, and Canon's new Print/Share button, which helps you quickly connect directly to a printer or send an image via e-mail.
