Canon's E1 Digital Camera is Shiny, Curvy, in Baby Pink and Blue
Posted by Kit Eaton at 9:12 PM on August 26, 2008
Canon's clearly trying to add a certain girly appeal to some of its latest digital cameras, since compared to the gruff, black 50D the upcoming E1 is particularly curvy and comes in vanilla, powder blue and baby pink. It's no optical slouch though, despite its simple looks, with 10-megapixels, 4x optical zoom and optical image stabilisation, macro mode, ISO80-1600 (with 3200 scene mode) and a 2.5-inch TFT display. It also takes AA batteries for convenience and weighs just 158g. Available in September for around $200. [Canon]

Awh... it's so cute. I think I'll buy one so my big black gruff Cannon can get it's rocks off.

Should be a hit with the teen/pre-teen girl market.

I kinda like the white one. But for some reason I feel like smashing them against concrete. Don't know why.

BAH! My little sister wanted a camera for her birthday in September, and I just ordered an a470 yesterday. This would have been a much better camera for her. Maybe I can cancel the order!
