New EOS M10 Digital Camera Puts Imaging Power and Convenience into the Hands of the Social Media Generation
For capturing and sharing life's important moments with great clarity,
Canon (News - Alert) U.S.A. Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today
announced the EOS M10 interchangeable lens digital camera. A compact and
stylish design, the EOS M10 camera has the features and lens options to
help photographers expand their creativity and the mobile compatibility
and size for social-sharers to stay connected with sharp images that are
sure to draw 'Likes'.
Adding to its compact design, the EOS M10 camera is fitted with a new
retractable EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM lens, that shortens and locks
into a compact size when not in use. This retractable Canon
interchangeable lens provides outstanding image quality that helps the
EOS M10 camera remain small and lightweight to go with you anywhere.
For those "selfie" moments that can't be missed, the EOS M10 camera's
three-inch screen tilts up 180 degrees to help make sure everyone is in
the shot. The touch panel LCD screen also lets users browse images and
navigate menus with ease. The camera's Creative Assist mode makes it
easy to adjust settings and add effects such as brightness, background
blur, vividness of color, contrast, warmth and filter effects to create
share-worthy images on the go - letting you stylize your photos and
capture the moment just as you want. And, to help everyone look their
selfie-best, the Self Portrait mode adjusts camera effects and settings
to enhance skin smoothness and brightness.
"This is the camera for the social media generation, including those who
love to take and share high-quality photos and video while on the go. It
will help them make the transition to a dedicated, high-quality digital
camera, because of its mobile compatibility and creative options," said
Yuichi Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A., Inc.

camera is compatible with most current Android (News - Alert)TM devices**

The EOS M10 camera is fully compatible with Canon's Connect Station
CS100, a home hub device that provides a fast and easy way to store

room TV, transfer them to soial media networks and share them with
