Canon IXUS 310 Camera
by Bryn Marshall
The IXUS 310 HS / ELPH 500 HS shares the exact same 'choc-ice' styling of earlier wide-screen IXUS / ELPH models, and our brown testimonial sample made the analogy even more fitting. It's also readily available in gold, silver and pink. At 185 grams consisting of the card and battery it's no light-weight, but fits comfortably in your hand and jacket, if not being rather shirt-pocket sized. Unlike the Sony Cyber-shot TX10 you can't take it in the water and at the time of composing there was no undersea real estate available - a minimum of not from Canon anyhow.
The <a href='http://www.canondigitalcamera.fr/canon-ixus-310-hs/'>IXUS 310</a> HS / ELPH 500 HS continues the trend for Canon touch-screen compacts to eschew physical controls. There's an on/off button and a two-position mode turn on the top panel and a playback button on the rear; aside from the big round shutter release button and its zoom collar that's it for physical controls.
The rear panel is taken up virtually totally by the screen, with a little ridged panel on the right which provides an extremely effective thumb rest - this is a comfortable camera to hold and run. With a 16:9 component ratio, the screen is preferably matched to HD video recording, although black vertical bars appear down the side for still shooting in the native 4:3 facet ratio. The absence of a video 'mode' (you press a record screen icon to start shooting video in any stills mode) means you need to frame up your shot in 4:3, the camera then switching to the 16:9 view when taping beginnings. If you discover you're shooting more video than stills you could set the aspect still photo ratio to 16:9, however you need to keep in mind to switch it back unless you're happy with 16:9 stills with a cropped resolution of 4000 x 2248, or simply over 8 Megapixels.
To look at, the display is a delight. With 460k pixels, images look clear and crisp and the seeing angle is nice and large both horizontally and vertically, so even when held above your head you could easily compose shots. The touch-screen does not feel as responsive as some of the earlier touch-screen IXUS models I have actually examined though. I had to press rather securely for the screen to respond and flicking with menu options didn't have the same natural feel as it does on my iPhone for instance. The touch features are augmented by tap controls throughout playback and I personally discovered it a great deal much easier to tap the side of the camera to advance playback instead of swiping the screen.
Touch-icon controls are arranged in the black vertical strips down either side of the display. These consist of shooting mode, video recording, flash and self-timer controls in addition to Canon's quick-access 'Func' menu. What's consisted of right here is totally customisable so you will most likely set up the screen to include virtually anything you desire as long as there's space, and if it gets a bit cluttered there's a display icon that makes it all disappear.
The built-in flash has a maximum estimated range of 5 metres which is rather reasonable, it's additionally fast to recycle, particularly when shooting close topics when the power is automatically decreased. Less impressive is thetThe IXUS 310 HS / ELPH 500 HS's battery life - around 180 shots from the totally charged NB-6L Lithium Ion battery.
The integrated battery and card area is found behind a door on the underside of the camera and takes SD (HC and XC versions) and MMC (MMCplus and HCMMCplus variations) cards. Another door on the right side of the camera opens to expose mini HDMI and A/V / USB out ports.
