Canon PowerShot S410 / S500 Digital ELPH

Comments:
So there you have it. I decided to use the S500 as the "model" in the review -- so the photo above is the only place you'll see the S410. Aside from the color of the ring around the lens, they are identical.

Review Verdict: Regardless of the speed of the card, you'll find that 32MB is a decent starter size, but you'll definitely want a larger card soon after you get going with the S410 or S500. I recommend a 128MB card for the S410, and a 256MB card for the S500
