Shoot almost anywhere
The PowerShot D10 is ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities, from climbing to snorkelling. It offers water resistance to 10m, shock resistance for unexpected knocks or drops, operates in temperatures as low as -10 °C, and is fully protected from dust.

12.1 MP
A 12.1 Megapixel resolution gives you the freedom to crop or enlarge images, while retaining outstanding image detail.

3.0x zoom and optical IS
Canon’s 3.0x optical zoom lens features an optical Image Stabilizer, to guard images against blur caused by camera shake – essential in active, high-movement activities.

Incredible images more easily
Smart Auto mode uses intelligent Scene Detection Technology to determine subject brightness, contrast, distance and overall hue. The camera then searches an incredible 18 possible modes, and selects the one which offers the perfect settings for the scene – giving you great results from simple point-and-shoot operation.

DIGIC 4
Canon’s DIGIC 4 processor drives responsive operation, superb image quality and colour reproduction. Advanced Noise Reduction ensures richly detailed, cleaner images, even at high ISO speeds.

Extra-bright LCD
For easy framing and image review in any environment, a 2.5” PureColor LCD II offers twice the normal levels of brightness. A 2mm Perspex shield protects the screen against scuffs and fingerprints.

No more blur
Motion Detection Technology uses a range of advanced methods to ascertain movement of both camera and subject, plus the speed at which this motion occurs. The optimum ISO is then automatically set for any situation.

Face Detection Technology
A suite of Face Detection technologies detect up to 35 faces in a shot, adjusting key settings for optimal results with natural-looking skin tones. Blink Detection lets you avoid mistimed people shots, while FaceSelf-Timer takes a shot when an extra face is detected in the frame – making group photos easy.

Active accessories
Two optional strap sets – one for Shoulder & Neck, one with a Carabiner Strap - keep your hands free and your camera within easy reach. You can also customise the PowerShot D10 with a colourful front cover set.

Range of shooting modes
A wide range of shooting modes and Special Scene modes – including Underwater, Snow and Beach modes - delivers instant access to the right settings for any environment.

Movie mode
Supplement images with fun VGA movie clips.

The shock resistant testing methods are unique to this product and do not guarantee against damage or malfunction of the product.
Optional straps not designed for underwater use.

Make a splash with the new FinePix Z33WP compact camera

Fujifilm have launched the FinePix Z33WP waterproof compact camera. Loaded with all the latest features, the lean 20mm super-slim body is both cool and strong. It is waterproof to depths of three meters and the smooth grip shape means it won't slip out of your hands when you need it most. And the big, rubber-like buttons are easy to use when you're quickly trying to capture those awesome adventure shots.

To get the best possible action shots, the FinePix Z33WP features Picture Stabilisation and Face Detection technology. Picture Stabilisation uses high sensitivity (up to 1600 ISO) to help reduce camera shake, freeze subject movement and improve low-light background detail to deliver virtually blur free images. Meanwhile, Face Detection can detect up to 10 faces in a frame and optimises focus and exposure for faces, rather than any background objects perfect for pictures of people in the midst of the action.

First featured on Fujifilm's high-end compact, the FinePix F60fd, the FinePix Z33WP is fitted with Scene Recognition AUTO. This clever technology automatically detects the scene you're shooting Night, Landscape, Macro, Portrait, Night Portrait and Backlight Portrait and optimises the camera's settings to produce the best results.

The FinePix Z33WP also features two fun and handy Self-timer Modes Couple and Group. These are great for when you, your friends, or partner, all want to be in the shot but there's no-one around to take the picture. All you have to do is select the number of faces and the camera automatically takes the shot once all faces are in the frame.

Finally, to enable you to share your shots with friends, the FinePix Z33WP features the very popular Blog Mode. This re-sizes images to a cyber-friendly size so you can quickly and easily pop your pics on social networking sites such as Facebook and Flickr for all to see and enjoy.
