DCResource Previews Canon PowerShot S60
It was only announced yesterday, but DCResource have already published a preview of the Canon PowerShot S60, a 5 megapixel digital camera with a wide-angle 28mm-100mm lens and a new thin body.
“The RAW + JPEG option isn’t what it sounds like. The camera doesn’t save a separate JPEG image along with the RAW file like Canon’s SLR cameras. Rather, it embeds a JPEG thumbnail that allows for the zoom and scroll (AKA playback zoom) feature and image playback on the camera or the PC. Why would you want to use a larger thumbnail? The answer is, to check the detail in the image. If you use the zoom and scroll feature a lot, a higher resolution thumbnail will let you see more detail when zoomed in.”
