In January of 2013, Canon announced a weird compact camera called the PowerShot N. A decade later and with “vintage” point and shoots making a comeback, how well does this strange little camera hold up?

Surprisingly, the PowerShot N has aged relatively well and is capable of producing really nice photos in a compact form factor that’s still fun to use.The PowerShot N is not intuitive to use in the least. Because it lacks a standard shutter button , if you handed this camera to someone you are basically guaranteed to confuse them. From a modern perspective, you would probably expect that since it doesn’t have a shutter, photos can be captured by tapping the rear screen.

As you might expect, the settings are quite limited. It has a tiny, measly flash that is what I would describe as “fine,” can shoot in JPEGs that max out at 12 megapixels, or 4,000 by 3,000 pixels, and it can’t capture in RAW. What it can do is shoot video, which is shockingly 1080p Full HD resolution. Is it “good” Full HD? Absolutely not. The pixels lack detail, the colors are weak, and the footage has a distinctly “old” look. I love it. It’s a blast from the past.

Objectively, photos that don’t over-challenge the camera look pretty darn good. Images can be sharp and detailed and while I wouldn’t expect it to be able to capture action, it does manage to get the general gist of a situation for the sake of memory.
