DPinterface have reviewed the Canon PowerShot A540 digital camera. The ultra compact Canon Powershot A540 offers 6 megapixels resolution, a 4x optical zoom lens and a 2.5 inch display. In addition to the display, the PowerShot A540 is also equipped with an optical viewfinder, something that most ultra compact camera miss these days. Equally ‘above class’ the fully manual exposure mode, which gives additional control to advanced photographers. An automatic mode is of course available for the point and shot photographers as well.

The results of the review:
“The PowerShot A540 also has good battery life though competition is getting better. The LCD is at its largest size as well (for an entry-level camera), being a good 2.5 inches with nice visibility. […]
Delivering fast performance in almost all aspects - except autofocus - the Canon A540 also offers unlimited continuous shooting and a VGA 30 FPS movie mode. […]
The A540’s photos are good as well, with fairly low noise till ISO 400. I’d definitely recommend the Canon PowerShot A540 to anyone who wants a versatile, compact and affordable camera (Who gives you that nowadays?).

In short, the A540 is a good all-rounder with no major problems - only a few quirks here and there.”
