Canon sticks to the simple PowerShot A-Series product line with new models and still offers the ability to power these cameras with two AA batteries.
In time for PMA09 Canon unveils the Canon PowerShot A2100 IS, A1100 IS and A480 Digital Cameras.

The Canon PowerShot A2100 IS Digital Camera (photo) design has evolved to be smaller in size and higher in performance, but has maintained the essence of the A-Series persona with a mode dial for more creative control.

Features such as 12.1-Megapixel resolution, 6x Optical Zoom lens with Optical Image Stabilization, large 3.0-inch LCD screen and new Smart AUTO enables this camera to be a go-everywhere and shoot anywhere product.
The PowerShot A2100 IS Digital Camera is scheduled to be available in early-April for an estimated retail price of $249.99.

The PowerShot A1100 IS Digital Camera is scheduled to be available in March for an estimated retail price of $199.99.
