AN ULTRACOMPACT 5-megapixel snapshot camera with quick performance, the $399.99 Canon PowerShot SD400 is one of the better choices in the current Canon Digital Elph lineup.
The SD400 uses Carton's DIGIC II DSP to boost performance to impressive levels. Shutter lag was short under high-contrast lighting and respectable under low-contrast lighting with the focus assist switched on. Burst mode was a joy to use: You can shoot full-resolution photos until your trigger finger tires. Battery life from the lithium-ion cell was also excellent--we managed 782 shots from a single charge, half of them with flash.
