Compare Prices : Canon PowerShot D10 - Expert Reviews

Pros: Excellent photo quality ; comfortable to use in water or with gloves

Cons: Poor design for an everyday camera, expensive for an occasional camera ; kind of ugly ; mixed performance

Verdict: It might not look quite right, but the PowerShot D10 is a solid entry into rugged cameras for Canon.

Review summary: This 12 megapixel camera is Canon's entry into the go-anywhere-indestructible category. It is waterproof to 10 metres and will work in -10C conditions. It will also cope with a 1m drop. The camera case is a curious looking affair, but quite attractive ...

Review summary: Go scuba diving and take under-the-sea moments with the new Canon PowerShot D10 in its globular casing. It features a 12.1 megapixel sensor which has the ability to zoom 3x under a ten meter waterproof rating. Of course, as it is intended underwater, ...
