Features for Canon Powershot SX1 IS
Super zoom
The powerful 20x wide-angle (28mm, f/2.8) optical zoom provides
outstanding reach and composition flexibility. With Ultrasonic Motor
(USM) and Voice Coil Motor (VCM), zooming is fast, accurate and
near-silent, while Canon’s renowned optical Image Stabilizer
technology counteracts camera shake.
Canon CMOS sensor
The PowerShot SX1 IS is the first Canon compact camera to
incorporate a Canon CMOS sensor, which allows high resolution
shooting in exceptionally rapid bursts. The sensor boasts 10
Megapixels for capturing the finest detail, allowing creative
cropping and superb large-scale prints.
HD movies in stereo
Create smooth, high quality movies in full high definition (1080,
30p), then use HDMI connectivity for playback on HD widescreen TVs –
complete with CD quality stereo sound.
DIGIC 4
Incorporating the latest in image processing technology, DIGIC 4
delivers extraordinary noise reduction. The result is richly
detailed, cleaner images, even when shooting at high ISO speeds.
DIGIC 4 also drives exceptional processing speeds and responsive
operation.
Miss nothing
With the Canon CMOS sensor, extra fast continuous shooting speeds
(up to 4fps) at full resolution are achieved. Servo AF tracks moving
subjects to ensure they remain in focus.
Face Detection Technology
Great people shots are assured with the latest Face Detection
AF/AE/FE/WB – even faces at angles and far away. Face Select & Track
optimises settings for a chosen person, while FaceSelf-Timer waits
for you to enter the frame for great self-portraits or group photos.
Eliminate blur
The PowerShot SX1 IS combats potential blur with High ISO Auto and
Motion Detection Technology, which ascertains movement of both
camera and subject to set the optimum ISO, whatever the shooting
situation. Servo AF tracks moving subjects to ensure they remain in
focus.
Optimum contrast
Working in both shooting and playback, i-Contrast boosts brightness
in dark areas. The result is improved contrast with detail retained
in tricky lighting conditions.
Large LCD
The 2.8" widescreen vari-angle LCD enables framing from challenging
angles and easy sharing of images in playback. Night Display mode
enhances screen visibility in low light.
Flash compatible
For extended shooting options and better light coverage, the
comprehensive accessory system includes compatibility with Canon EX
Speedlite flash range.
