Features for Canon IXUS 950IS
Refined design
A destinctive curved design and three-tone metallic finish set the
Digital IXUS 950 IS apart from the crowd. The convenient Touch
Control Dial makes it easy to select menu features when shooting or
browse captured images in playback. Useful functions can be assigned
to the Shortcut button for one-touch access.
8.0 Megapixels
An 8.0 Megapixel sensor captures the fine detail in every scene,
with enough resolution for photo-quality poster prints.
Powerful optics
The powerful 4x optical zoom lens incorporates Canon’s renowned
optical Image Stabilizer technology to counteract camera shake. An
Ultra-High Refractive Index Aspherical (UA) lens element ensures
exceptional clarity throughout the zoom range.

DIGIC III with iSAPS
Canon's DIGIC III processor provides lightning quick responses,
superb image quality and advanced noise reduction for sharper,
clearer images. iSAPS technology analyses each scene to optimise key
camera settings even before a shot is taken.
Face Detection AF/AE/FE
Face Detection AF/AE/FE ensures superb people shots by automatically
detecting the subjects in the frame and selecting the optimum focus,
exposure and flash settings. My Category tags each image based on
face detection and shooting mode for easy navigation, printing,
deleting and more.
Red-Eye Correction
During playback Face Detection Technology allows you to quickly and
accurately correct red-eye.
PureColor LCD
A high resolution (230,000 pixels) PureColor LCD displays richer,
vivid colours with sharp definition. An anti-glare,
scratch-resistant coating adds extra protection against knocks and
scrapes.

Sharp low-light shooting
Shoot clear, bright images in dim conditions with ISO 1600 - ideal
for parties and restaurants or where flash photography is not
allowed. Use Auto ISO Shift to avoid image blur with the touch of a
button whenever camera shake is predicted.
Shooting modes and My Colors
A choice of 18 shooting modes includes Creative Light Effect - an
innovative feature that uses the optical Image Stabilizer to create
shapes from points of light in the background of dark scenes. My
Colors allows colour effects to be applied to images and movies
direct from the camera.
Movie options
Shoot 30fps VGA quality movies with stereo sound. Use the Time Lapse
Movie function to capture changing scenes - a flower’s bloom,
drifting clouds or a bustling city street - for accelerated playback
as smooth video clips.
