While Canon's new professional-level 10.1 megapixel 1D Mark III D-SLR may be hogging much of the spotlight this morning, the company also has five new consumer models on tap. First up are the new PowerShot A570 IS and the PowerShot A560. Both cameras feature 7.1MP image sensors, DIGIC III image processor, 4x optical zoom, 2.5" 115k pixel LCD display and Canon's new Face Detection AF/AE/FE technology. The A570 IS ups the ante by including Optical Image Stabilization (OIS). The A570 IS and A560 will both be available in March at a price of $279.99 and $229.99 respectively. Next up is Canon's PowerShot SD1000 Digital Elph and PowerShot SD750 Digital Elph. The cameras both include a 7.1MP image sensor, DIGIC III image processor and 3x optical zoom. The SD750 offers up a 3" LCD display, weighs less than five ounces and measures 3.5" x 2.25" x 0.75". The 4.5 ounce SD1000 includes a 2.5" screen and is smaller than a deck of playing cards. The SD750 and SD1000 will both be available in late March at a suggest retail price of $349.99 and $299.99 respectively.

Lastly, Canon showed off its new PowerShot TX1 which doubles as a digital camera and an HD video recorder. The 3.5" x 2.4" x 1.1" TX1 features a 7.1MP image sensor backed with Canon's DIGIC III processor and 10x optical zoom with image stabilization. It also incorporates a 1.8" Vari-Angle LCD display into its 7.8 ounce stainless steel body. The added bonus is that the TX1 can capture 30 FPS high definition 720p video. The PowerShot TX1 will be available in March for a suggested retail price of $499.
