Canon PowerShot N2 Review

April 22, 2015 | Jack Baker | Rating star Rating star Rating star Half rating star

Introduction

Back in 2013 we were rather underwhelmed with the original PowerShot N, but Canon is back with a second generation that boasts improved specs and more features. The PowerSHot N2 retains the same distinctive square style and 8x optically stabilised zoom lens as its predecessor, but now its tilting, touch-sensitive screen flips up 180° to face forwards, thereby making it a breeze to snap a selfie. There are changes inside too, with a 16.1-megapixel back-illuminated sensor replacing the original N’s 12.1MP device, and the N2 gets Canon’s newer DIGIC 6 processor that ups continuous shooting speed marginally to 2.7fps. There’s Full HD video for when stills just aren’t fast enough, and the N2 gets Canon’s Hybrid Auto mode that combines video clips with stills to create a pseudo time-lapse effect. Wi-Fi connectivity is also present for easy image sharing and remote camera control, and the N2 adds NFC pairing for extra convenience. The Canon PowerShot N2 is available now priced at £249 / $299.99 in white or black.

Ease of Use

Although the Canon PowerShot N2 now packs some new technology under the skin, that distinctive square style remains. It is slightly larger than the original N though at 80.9 x 62.0 x 32.3mm, and a 201g ready-to-shoot weight is also marginally up on the old model. To put that in perspective, a more conventionally-styled Canon IXUS 275 HS may appear larger than the N2, but its overall volume and weight are around 25% less.

The Canon PowerShot N2’s increased bulk is partly due to a new control ring design. As with the original N, two rings around the base of the lens replace a standard, top-mounted shutter release button and surrounding zoom ring. The N2’s zoom ring is slightly thicker than its predecessor’s and features more pronounced ridges for better grip. In front of this the shutter release ring which has also been sculpted for more control. The fundamental design is still hardly what you’d call intuitive though (to snap a shot, you press down on the top of the shutter ring) and thanks to there being very little resistance at the half-press autofocus point, it’s all too easy to push fully down and snap a shot before the camera has focussed.

You can configure the Canon PowerShot N2 to shoot by touching the screen instead, but this can often result in snapping shots unintentionally. In fact, the shutter ring design actually works best when taking a selfie, as your forefinger sits more naturally on top of the lens when the camera is facing you, whilst your remaining fingers and thumb grip the camera body. Get back behind the camera and it’s very hard to shoot one-handed, partly because there isn’t a great deal to hang on to, but mainly because the shutter ring ideally needs two hands to operate precisely from this position.

Aside from the tweaked control rings, the Canon PowerShot N2 is a very similar design to the original N. The glossy plastic shell is well made but has no specific gripping points, though if you’re used to clinging on to a current-gen, wafer-thin smartphone, you shouldn’t have much trouble keeping hold of the N2. Another feature familiar to smartphone users is the N2’s use of Micro SD cards to save physical space. This isn’t particularly unusual though, as quite a few ultra-compact and toughened cameras also record on this format.

You do get some conventional controls on the sides of the Canon PowerShot N2 to assist the touch-sensitive screen. Next to your left hand is the on/off button and below this is the playback control. On the opposite edge is a button to activate the N2’s wireless hotspot, and there’s a switch above to switch between standard shooting and Creative Shot mode. This feature is included with many Canon compact cameras and instantly captures one standard shot plus an extra five variations of it, each with a different filter effect and crop applied. It’s a useful feature when you want to get creative but don’t fancy wasting time hunting through menus to manually apply different filters (check out the image quality section of the review for examples). This feature also explains why the N2 only has five conventional filters.

In addition to these effects, there’s also a Hybrid Auto mode that captures a 4-second video clip with each still and compiles everything into a 720p time-lapse movie. Other shooting modes include a standard Auto stills mode, and a Program mode for manually setting options like ISO sensitivity and white balance. There’s also a Self Portrait mode that activates the touch-screen shutter feature and provides easy adjustment of brightness, background defocus, the flash and self-timer.

Each mode is selected by tapping the mode icon in the upper left corner of the screen which reveals all the available shooting modes, spread over a two touch-friendly screens. Common shooting settings are accessed by tapping the ‘Func.’ Icon in the lower left corner and within this screen overlay is a button to activate the main menu. This displays a typical grey and orange Canon menu system like you’d find on a normal Canon compact camera, but which has been made touch-sensitive. On the whole it’s an easy system to navigate, once you familiarise yourself with which screen icon reveals each group of options.

Tilting LCD Screen

The Canon PowerShot N2's 2.8” screen itself has identical specs to that used by the original N. It’s 461,000-dot resolution isn’t especially high, but it’s good enough to display reasonable detail levels and it has very good viewing angles and colour accuracy. The screen is also nice and responsive to your touch, allowing for smooth swiping between images and multi-touch pinch zooming. It’s not quite as slick to use as a current smartphone, but it’s almost as good.

As with original N, the N2’s screen also hinges at the top, but this time it’s able to flip up 180 degrees to face completely forward, rather than being restricted to a 90-degree rotation like the original N. This makes the N2 far more selfie-friendly, and though the screen can’t be tilted downward to help compose a high-angle shot, you can flip the whole camera upside-down to achieve the same result.

The Canon PowerShot N2 In-hand

One area which hasn’t been improved from the original N, however, is its flash. With space at such a premium, the Canon PowerShot N2 has to make do with a tiny LED flash such as you’d find on a smartphone. This is extremely underpowered when compared to a conventional xenon flash on even an entry-level compact camera. Also compromised by the N2’s diminutive dimensions is its battery. The 870mAh cell is about the size of an AA battery, but is only good for 200 shots per charge, and we had trouble matching even that figure.

Canon has improved its wireless connectivity for the N2 though by adding NFC pairing. Now you’re able to simply tap an NFC-enabled smart device against the camera to create a connection, but pairing the old fashioned way is fairly painless too. Canon has replaced its old CameraWindow app with a revised version called Canon Camera Connect, although the two apps are quite similar on the surface. You’re still able to transfer images from camera to smart device, with each full resolution photo transferring in 4-5 seconds. You can also operate the N2 remotely from a smartphone or tablet, and whilst there’s a slight lag when operating the zoom controls, the autofocus and shutter commands are instant. The N2 also carries over the N’s ability to use your smart device to tag its images with GPS coordinates. This is less convenient than a proper built-in GPS system as you must sync the camera to your smartphone and rely on the accompanying app, but at least this method doesn’t eat into the N2’s already anaemic battery life.

Despite it’s questionable control design and ergonomics, the Canon PowerShot N2 functions rather well. It’ll snap a shot in approximately 1.7 seconds from power-on and has an excellent autofocus system. This is both fast and accurate, even in low light, where the LED flash comes good as a bright AF-assist lamp.

Image Quality

All of the sample images in this review were taken using the 16 megapixel JPEG setting, which gives an average image size of around 5Mb.

The Canon PowerShot N2’s 16.1MP back-illuminated 1/2.3” CMOS sensor sounds pretty average on paper, but it actually generates surprisingly good image quality. Detail is very well resolved, even when shooting distant landscapes where many cameras are susceptible to smearing grasses and foliage. Detail is noticeably crisper than in shots captured by the 20.2-megapixel PowerShot SX610 HS which we tested alongside the N2, proving that more pixels don’t always mean better.

The other advantage of a lower pixel count is better light sensitivity, and here the N2 also outperforms the SX610 HS, producing impressively little image noise right up to ISO1600. Even at the topmost ISO3200 sensitivity images display well, with relatively low levels of grain and colour speckling. Canon hasn’t achieved this by cranking up the N2’s noise reduction processing either, so there’s still plenty of detail visible in high ISO shots.

Colours are also rendered well, being both vibrant yet accurate, and the camera’s exposure metering does a good job too by producing balanced exposures with reasonably good highlight and shadow detail.

Optical performance is more of a mixed bag, though not a let-down. There is some barrel distortion at the 28mm-equivalent wide angle setting, which itself is not that wide by today’s compact camera standards. Sharpness is high though, with very little drop-off towards the corners of frame. Chromatic aberration (purple fringing) is also well controlled and you’ll have to scrutinise shots at 100% image size to spot it.

Noise

The Canon PowerShot N2 has a sensitivity range of ISO100 to ISO3200 available at full resolution. Unlike many ultra-compact cameras, ISO3200 is completely usable thanks to the N2’s impressively low image noise levels.

Sharpening

Here are two 100% crops which have been Saved as Web - Quality 50 in Photoshop. The right-hand image has had some sharpening applied in Photoshop. The out-of-the camera images are a little soft at the default setting ideally and benefit from some further sharpening in a program like Adobe Photoshop.

Focal Range

The Canon PowerShot N2’s 8x optical zoom lens gives you a focal range of 28-224mm (in 35mm-camera terms). Canon’s ZoomPlus feature can double this to 16x without considerable detail loss, whilst an additional 2x conventional digital zoom will give a combined maximum 32x reach, albeit at the expense of image quality.

Chromatic Aberrations

The Canon PowerShot N2 handled chromatic aberrations excellently during the review, with limited purple fringing present around the edges of objects in certain high-contrast situations, as shown in the example below.

Macro

A 1cm minimum focussing distance makes the Canon PowerShot N2 very handy for close-ups.

Flash

There’s no discreet way to say this; the Canon PowerShot N2’s flash is pathetic. It’s an LED flash such as you’d find in a smartphone and has a rated range of up to 1.7 metres, but in reality it’s only useful at very close distances and you’ll still need to use a high ISO sensitivity to get an accurate exposure.

Shooting a white target from a distance of 1.5 metres at ISO100 reveals some wide angle vignetting, but more obvious is the flash’s inability to fully light the scene. Zoom in and the problem is compounded and the shot is far darker than when compared to one illuminated by a conventional xenon flash.

Despite not having a red-eye reduction setting, the N2 doesn’t produce any red-eye. This shot is darker than normal thanks to the underpowered flash not being able to cope with a forced ISO100 sensitivity.

Night

Activate the Canon PowerShot N2’s Low Light mode and it’ll drop the recording resolution to 5MP to increase detail, counteract camera shake and minimise image noise. However, standard Auto mode usually produces comparable results, but at full resolution.

Anti Shake

Canon’s lens-shift image stabilisation system does a good job of compensating for camera shake. Shot at full zoom with a maximum telephoto aperture of f/5.9, this image required a slow 1/5-second shutter speed at ISO100, but the photo is still fairly sharp when IS is enabled. Turn it off and there’s no chance of avoiding considerable blur at the same settings.

Conclusion

Given the original N was clearly a niche product and its style hasn’t been widely replicated, it’s perhaps surprising that Canon has followed it up with the N2. Clearly this is a camera aimed at fashion-conscious smartphone photographers who want better image quality and also the versatility of optical zoom, but the Canon PowerShot N2 doesn’t really hit this mark.

Where smartphones get progressively slimmer to make them more pocketable and feature ever-expanding screens, the chubby N2 is noticeably harder to pocket than a regular compact camera. Its 2.8” screen is also down on the typical 3.0” size you’re likely to find elsewhere, and its 461k-dot resolution pales in comparison to the super-sharp displays on nearly every current smartphone. It’s not even like you need a conventional camera to get optical zoom these days, as Samsung’s Galaxy K Zoom packs a 10x zoom lens into a smartphone that’s 40% slimmer than the N2.

Now that Canon has made the N2’s screen fully tiltable through 180° and added NFC pairing, it’s certainly more appealing than the N in terms of connectivity and selfie-shooting. But its core design characteristics remain, and so do its ergonomic drawbacks. The camera really needs to be held with both hands to accurately operate its front control rings, and even then they feel unintuitive and awkward to use. Add to this the pathetic LED flash and disappointing battery life, and the benefits of the N2 over a smartphone camera aren’t all that compelling.

It’d be easy to dismiss the Canon PowerShot N2 as a gimmicky attempt to lure smartphone photographers back to a conventional camera, but it does have one saving grace. The N2 can produce very attractive images with crisp detail, punchy colours and impressively low levels of image noise. Its fast autofocussing and accurate exposure metering also help compensate for the N2’s ergonomic bugbears.

Inside, the Canon PowerShot N2 is clearly a good camera struggling to escape a compromised, flawed external design. If you want a camera that stands out from the crowd, performs well under the skin and you’re willing to accept frustrating ergonomics, the N2 could be worth considering, but trying before buying is a must. Otherwise, you’d be better off splashing the same cash on a well-sorted conventional camera with less overall bulk, more optical zoom, a longer battery life and a stronger flash.

Review Roundup

Reviews of the Canon PowerShot N2 from around the web.

digitalversus.com »

Faced with the constant onslaught of smartphones, Canon had the clever idea of rethinking the traditional digital camera. The result, the Canon PowerShot N, was modern and minimalist, a far cry from anything that had gone before. The Canon PowerShot N2, its successor, inherits the cuboid shape and incorporates a 16 Mpx sensor, a 180° adjustable screen, Wi-Fi and NFC.

The Canon PowerShot N2 ($299.99) is a minor update to the original N. It increases the sensor resolution to 16 megapixels, improves video to 1080p30 resolution, and makes it a little bit easier to capture a photo using the shutter ring. But ergonomics are still a serious issue, and image quality lags behind the PowerShot N100, our Editors' Choice for compact cameras, and for just $50 more it's a much better buy.
