Canon PowerShot N Hands-On

January 14, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon PowerShot N

The Canon PowerShot N is definitely one of the most unique cameras released this year at CES 2013.

I had a chance to go hands-on with the new compact shooter at CES 2013 and learn a little more about how the camera works. [Read more…]
