Canon of Good Taste

ART IN RESIDENCE

In an effort to avoid *real* fashion photographers — and to escape lugging around a giant camera we don’t know how to operate — we had to think big, er, small for Fashion Week.

Thankfully, our friends at Canon had a solution: a tiny camera big on precision.

We happily shot everything from runway shots to street scenes on borrowed PowerShot SD1200 IS Digital Elphs. The newest edition to the diminutive point-and-shoots didn’t let us down! We took full advantage of its ten megapixels and 3X optical zoom (especially from the back row at bigger shows). We’re sad to send them back. But we’ll smile and say cheese thank you!
