When ease of operation and easy design in a small size and is coloured beautifully, there is no use resisting that gadget. This is exactly what could be said of the Polaroid a540, an ultra compact, entry level camera that comes with the most basic features that anyone would expect out of a basic digital camera, with perhaps the exception of optical zoom. This camera with a resolution of 5mp and an interpolated resolution of 10mp, gives a digital zoom range of 4x.
Design and FunctioningEntry level cameras have to be light, small and compact the Polaroid a540 scores on each of these lines. This designed-for-comfort camera comes in vibrant colours like Apple Green and Shocking Pink, apart from Midnight Black. This range of cameras uses the CMOS type of image sensing device, instead of the standard CCD (Charge-Coupled Device). The CMOS sensor is often cited as a power saving variety of image sensor as compared to the CCD. This ultra compact camera comes with a digital zoom of 4x. It also possesses an internal memory of 64 MB and is compatible with SD storage cards.
