Canon PowerShot E1 Digital Camera First Impressions Review

The Canon PowerShot E1 is a 10-megapixel point-and-shoot designed for a young audience. The camera's design features a lot of curves and rounded edges, and it comes in an array of pastel colors. It's squarely aimed at the Hannah Montana market, but we're wondering whether that demographic wants its digital gear festooned in baby shower colors and cutesy design. The camera comes with both a totally automated easy mode and some manual options, so young photographers who do pony up $199.99 for the E1 will have a reasonably full-featured piece of gear. The E1 is scheduled to ship in October.
