Key Features

Optical Image Stabilisation helps to reduce camera shake blur. The built-in gyro sensors detect camera shake and automatically activates a shift lens unit to compensate for it.

The Hints & Tips UI provides on-screen explanations of the camera’s features during shooting, playback and in menus to guide you through the camera’s operation.

Smart AUTO uses Advanced Canon technology to intelligently analyze your situation and shooting conditions. Then it automatically selects an appropriate setting from 18 specially defined settings.

Face Detection detects up to 35 faces in a shot and adjusts focus, exposure, flash settings and white balance – for optimal results with natural-looking skin tones. FaceSelf-Timer allows you to take group photos, with you in it, easily by taking the shot when your face enters the frame.

Motion Detection Technology works in the background to instantly evaluate how fast your subject is moving. Then it automatically selects and sets the optimal exposure and ISO settings to keep everything looking sharp and clear. When you need higher ISOs for action-stopping shutter speeds, Motion Detection Technology provides it. But when no movement is detected, it allows lower ISOs for excellent colour and detail.

i-Contrast solves difficult lighting situations where you have extremely bright and dark areas appearing in the same image by brightening up dark areas while keeping the bright parts as they are.

A special red eye fix algorithm on the camera automatically eliminates red eye from occurring in your pictures. You can remove red eye during image reviewing, or for more convenience, set the camera to automatically detect and eliminate red eye from your shots as they are taken.

This port lets you connect to HDMI compatible HD TVs to view images in high definition quality.
