The Canon PowerShot A540 ($300) is a midrange digital camera that offers a 6 Megapixel CCD, 4X optical zoom (instead of the usual 3X), large 2.5" LCD display, full manual controls, and a VGA movie mode. The A540, along with its 5 Megapixel sibling, the A530, replace Canon's extremely popular A510 and A520 models from last year. Both cameras use Canon's DIGIC II image processor. There are a few differences between the A530 and A540 (besides the resolution) that are worth pointing out. The A530 has a 1.8" LCD, compared to the 2.5" screen on the A540. While the A540 can record movies at 640 x 480, 30 frames/second, the A530's frame rate is a sluggish 10 fps. The A540 has shutter and aperture priority modes, while the A530 only has a manual mode (where you set both the aperture and shutter speed). And finally, only the A540 supports conversion lenses and an underwater case. With that out of the way we can begin our review of the PowerShot A540!
