> The IXUS that learned to share.

  • Touchscreen
  • Wi-Fi pocket
  • 12× zoom
  • Indie sleaze

The IXUS 510 HS is one of the first IXUS bodies that came with built-in Wi-Fi — Canon's 2012 answer to the question phones were starting to ask. Touchscreen, 12× zoom, slim enough to live in a coat pocket.

10.1 megapixels through a backlit CMOS sensor — which is the spec that matters here. Backlit CMOS handles low light better than the CCDs of the early-2010s, so indoor shots hold up. Wi-Fi pushes straight to your phone — half the workflow people are rebuilding now is already in this camera.

The 510 HS was the IXUS in the moment phones were taking over — slim, touchscreen, Wi-Fi. Now it sits in the same TikTok #digicam shelf as the cameras you saw on Tumblr in 2012.

Why this one

A camera with a cultural moment

The IXUS 510 HS is one of the first IXUS bodies that came with built-in Wi-Fi — Canon's 2012 answer to the question phones were starting to ask. Touchscreen, 12× zoom, slim enough to live in a coat pocket.

10.1 megapixels through a backlit CMOS sensor — which is the spec that matters here. Backlit CMOS handles low light better than the CCDs of the early-2010s, so indoor shots hold up. Wi-Fi pushes straight to your phone — half the workflow people are rebuilding now is already in this camera.

Questions

Things people ask

Does it come with a memory card?

No — bring your own SD or microSD. Standard sizes work; check the camera's max capacity in the spec sheet. We carry memory cards in store if you need one.

How do I get photos onto my phone?

Pull the SD card and use a card reader — or connect by USB cable. Most cameras of this era use mini-USB or micro-USB; the spec sheet inside System Properties tells you which.

Battery and charging?

Original or compatible battery, charged and verified working before sale. We note in the listing whether the original charger is included. Replacement batteries for most of these models are available aftermarket.

Is the camera tested before sale?

Yes — every used digital compact at GPP goes through our bench before listing. Battery confirmed, shutter cycled, sensor inspected, LCD verified. Honest condition notes are part of every listing — see the About window.

What's your return policy?

7-day functional return. If anything we declared isn't working as described, contact us within 7 days of receipt for a full refund or exchange. Wear-and-tear consistent with the listed condition isn't returnable.

Can I see the camera before I buy?

Always welcome. Visit Warehouse D36, Alserkal Avenue, Al Quoz, Dubai. Open Monday to Saturday, 10am–7pm. Bring an SD card if you'd like to test-shoot on the spot.

Why do these cameras look the way they do?

CCD sensor + small lens + Y2K-era processing pipeline = the soft, slightly cool, slightly motion-blurry look that's all over TikTok right now. It's a hardware artifact, not a filter. The phone-can't-fake-it look you're chasing comes from cameras like this.
