Defy physical limits
Do you remember your old digital camera? You know, the one that was always making excuses why it couldn't go with you on your next adventure. "It's too cold", it would say, or "What if I get wet? Or take a bad fall?" It's about time you had a digital camera whose zest for adventure matches your own. Canon's D10 digital camera is waterproof. And freeze proof. Oh yeah, and shock proof. Meet the perfect sidekick for adventure. The D10's waterproof construction performs down to 33 ft, ideal for snorkeling or scuba diving. And there's no need to worry about tossing the D10 in your backpack on a particularly chilly day . . . it's designed to operate flawlessly down to 14° F. Finally, whether you're mountain biking, rock climbing, or just have butter fingers, the D10's shockproof design protects it against falls of up to four feet.
The Specs
The Canon D10's rugged exterior protects a wealth of advanced, internal features that deliver a high-performance digital camera experience. While a whopping 12.1-megapixel capture resolution and 1/2.3" CCD image sensor capture detailed shots that can be easily enlarged without sacrificing resolution, a 3x optical zoom expands your shooting range. Further, Smart AUTO technology gives you the ability to take stunning, perfectly exposed photos under a variety of conditions, effortlessly. Smart AUTO technology intelligently analyzes shooting conditions and automatically selects an appropriate range of settings from 18 specially defined categories. Whether you're snapping shots of kids and pets at a park, friends out on the town at night, fireworks, beach scenes, or landscapes, the D10 automatically optimizes your shots.
Blur-B-Gone
We've all done it. Taken a blurry photo. Whether it was the excitement of the shot or an unstable shooting platform, shaky hands led to fuzzy, unclear shots. Equipped with Canon's acclaimed Optical Image Stabilizer Technology, the D10 digital camera takes great strides in minimizing or eliminating the effects of camera shake. Take steady, crisp, brilliant images, even when using the optical zoom!
Masterful portraits
Sure, you enjoy dabbling in landscapes, cityscapes, and wildlife photography, but by-and-large people are your most common subjects. Capturing well composed, well exposed photos of the human face, however, can be a tricky business. Well, unless you're using the Canon D10. Combining a variety of technologies, Canon's DIGIC technology enhances and simplifies photographing people. First, Face Detection technology finds and tracks the faces of moving subjects until you're ready to shoot, then delivers optimal focus, flash, and white balance for balanced, natural skin tones and properly exposed backgrounds. Intelligent Contrast Correction controls the compensation level in pixel units to brighten dark areas while leaving bright areas unchanged for improved portraits when a person's face is shadowed. Third, Red-eye Correction makes it possible to remove red-eye from photos either automatically while you're taking them or manually at a later time. Finally, a Face Detection Self-Timer automatically detects an increase in the number of faces and makes the appropriate adjustments. For example, the D10 will allow the photographer to leave the camera on a tripod and enter a group photo before snapping the shot.

GREAT Camera! Our daughter told us how pleased she is with hers, so we got one while on vacation in Florida - took it right in to the Gulf - No Problems! Great pictures! We recently purchased one for our son and daughter-in-law. They are equally impressed!
