Canon PowerShot Pro1 Review by Shuttertalk

Canon PowerShot Pro 1Shuttertalk have just reviewed the 8 megapixel Canon PowerShot Pro1 digital camera (found via DCViews).

“Canon have designed the PowerShot Pro1 from the ground up to attract experienced photographers who know what they want out of digital photography—the great zoom range, L-series lens, creative controls and professional construction add to the appeal. Canon’s flagship prosumer camera exudes quality, feels great in the hand and handles well. While it has no trouble in producing rich, contrasty and sharp images that have a lot of detail, it is let down by sluggish shot to shot times and noisy images at the higher ISO settings. In optimum conditions the Pro1 can defitely hold its own, but with the price envelope of Digital SLRs continually dropping and features such as image stabilisation being offered from other 8 megapixel contenders, the Pro1 certainly faces some stiff competition.”
