Canon has launched two new PowerShot digital cameras, the SX210 IS and SD3500 IS. Both cameras have enhanced smart auto modes, as well as newly added scene modes and image effects such as fish-eye and miniature mode.

Smart camera features include a face detection self-timer, a smart shutter scene mode that takes pictures after detecting a smile or a wink. Both cameras can also be set to automatically adjust lighting or movement levels and use Canon's smart flash exposure function. Low-light mode benefits from a wide ISO range up to 6400. 

Video is shot in 720p HD mode and has a built-in HDMI mini-connector that allows playback of video and photos on an HDTV. SDXC memory cards can now be used, allowing storage capacity of two terabytes in SDA standard format.

The SX210, which has a 28mm wide-angle lens, 14x optical zoom and 14.1-megapixel resolution, retails for $349. The SD3500, which has a 3.5-inch touch screen, a 24mm wide-angle lens with 5x optical zoom and 14.1-megapixel resolution, retails for $329.
