" 22 23 EOS Digital Features III/II IMAGE PROCESSOR The backbone of a good digital camera is the signal processing technology. Developed for high performance capturing and recording of digital images, Canon's III/II chip speeds up processing, compression and display. With superior color reproduction, bright, highsaturation subjects achieve natural color rendition and white balance. The latest-generation III Image Processor works in concert with Canon's CMOS sensors and DDR SDRAM buffer to achieve even higher levels of performance. The processor's outstanding power and speed deliver dramatically improved image quality and performance. Power consumption has been further reduced for even longer battery life. Color reproduction and noise reduction in low light situations have been significantly improved as well. Photo Printers The Perfect Complement to Canon Cameras Canon's superlative digital cameras are designed from the ground up to produce images of unparalleled clarity and color. From the EOS series and all through the PowerShot line, Canon cameras help photographers of all skill levels capture the best possible images with speed and ease. Canon brings this same level of commitment to the printing and sharing of these images with the PIXMA and SELPHY series of photo printers. For wallet-sized photos printed on the fly to exhibition quality, fine art prints, there's a Canon printer that's just right, no matter the photographer, no matter the skill level. With advanced technologies to ensure vivid, richly colored prints that will last a lifetime, Canon printers ensure you'll produce the perfect print--fast, every time. EOS SYSTEM ACCESSORIES The EOS System is unrivaled in its comprehensive array of accessories, ranging from battery grips to focusing screens to remote controls, that enhance power, customization and speed. Also, EOS cameras and EX-series Speedlites work in tanden to deliver great exposures and automatic balanced fill-in-flash. EF LENSES With more than 50 EF lenses, the EOS System boasts one of the world's most comprehensive selection of autofocus lenses. All EF lenses feature Canon's advanced optical technology, offering quality, breadth and scope to photographers everywhere. L­Series Lenses have a reputation in the professional photography world for remarkable performance. Their lens construction typically includes UD (Ultralow Dispersion) glass, fluorite or aspherical elements coated with Super Spectra Coating for incredible clarity and brilliant colors. EF-S lenses were developed for EOS SLRs with APS-C size sensors. Lightweight and compact, these lenses take advantage of the sensor's size to deliver optimized performance without compromising image quality. For instantaneous, quiet autofocus, Canon developed the world's first USM (Ultrasonic Motor) for a lens. To prevent blurred images when shooting in low light or at slow shutter speeds, many EF lenses are equipped with Optical Image Stabilizer technology that corrects camera shake by shifting a lens group to realign the image on the imaging sensor or film. CMOS SENSOR Canon developed its CMOS sensors for digital SLRs, taking advantage of proprietary knowledge from the development and manufacturing of its renowned autofocus sensors and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Unlike CCD sensors, which amplify signals only after they have been transferred to an image processor, CMOS sensors convert and amplify signals before they are transferred. As a result, Canon's CMOS sensors produce a cleaner signal, and power consumption is reduced by up to 90% compared to CCDs.

But now you can achieve excellentquality images in many difficult situations--outdoors at dusk, inside without a flash, even at the end Image Stabilizer Unit of the zoom range. Canon's lens-shift Optical Image Stabilizer technology uses miniature gyroscopic sensors to detect motion and generate a corrective signal to reduce blur caused by camera movement. An image-stabilizing lens group along the optical axis is shifted in response to the detected motion, providing effective cancellation of unwanted lens movement and vibration. End result--the images you capture are sharp while zoomed in, at slower shutter speeds and even in low light situation without a tripod. with Image Stabilizer OFF iSAPS TECHNOLOGY iSAPS (Intelligent Scene Analysis based on Photographic Space) technology dramatically improves Autofocus, Auto Exposure and Auto White Balance systems. Statistical frequencies for different combinations of focal length, focus distance, scene brightness and other factors were culled from Canon's huge volume of data and combined with advanced prediction algorithms. The result is that PowerShot cameras optimize AF. exposure and auto white balance settings for any given scene rapidly and effectively. High Frequency III/II IMAGE PROCESSOR The Image Processor significantly enhances the performance of Canon digital cameras providing superior image quality, rich color, faster operation, and lower power consumption. The III, the third generation digital image processor that offers a major boost in noise reduction signal processing to compensate for high ISO settings. The III is also the first Image Processor to support Face Detection AF/AE/FE* Technology. Canon designs and manufactures its own image processors to work seamlessly with all other technologies in Canon digital cameras, providing the user with the best photographs possible. III 36 UA LENS TECHNOLOGY* The UA lens is a Canon exclusive: a glass-molded aspherical lens with an ultra-high refractive index that delivers incredibly bright, clear shots while keeping the camera compact. High Frequency Bright Low Near Distance Far Low Luminance Frequency Dark Face Detection only detects faces facing forward. And shows up to 9 frames or 35 frames on select models. * Not on all models. 37 PowerShot Technology PowerShot Technology MULTI-POINT AIAF Canon's wide-area AiAF intelligently and automatically selects one or more focusing points based on factors, such as subject position and motion. AiAF works in conjunction with iSAPS Technology to more quickly and accurately achieve autofocus under a wide variety of shooting conditions. You get fast, accurate AF whether you hold the camera horizontally or vertically, with stationary or moving subjects, with off-center subjects, and even in low-light/lowcontrast lighting. RED-EYE CORRECTION* III allows some PowerShot models to detect and correct red-eye during playback. In unusual cases where red-eye is not automatically detected, it can easily be corrected manually from the LCD screen. with Red-eye Correction without Red-eye Correction ISO SETTING Canon PowerShot cameras give you a choice of ISO-equivalent settings. Low ISO speeds give you better image quality, while high ISO speeds reduce the effects of camera shake or blurring of moving subjects and sharpen photos in low-light situations. While the camera will automatically select the best ISO speed for conditions, in manual and advanced shooting modes, you can set the ISO to 80, 100, 400, 800 or ISO 1600.** When shooting at high ISO speeds, select ISO 1600 PowerShot digital cameras can apply automatic Noise Reduction for beautiful prints at even the highest ISO speeds. ISO 80 Multi-Point AiAF With Face Detection AE/AF/FE FACE DETECTION AF/AE/FE* Cameras equipped with the III Image Processor feature Face Detection Technology. When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the camera finds faces in the frame to ensure excellent focus, proper illumination of both the face(s) and the overall scene, and adjusts the flash for the location of the face(s). Without Face Detection AE/AF/FE FLEXIZONE AF/AE* Using FlexiZone AF/AE, you can freely move a single AF point around the frame. Now you can easily focus on off-center subjects without reframing the shot. When spot metering is selected, you can choose to measure exposure at the chosen AF point or at the center of the frame. This option gives you maximum flexibility, enabling you to handle difficult lighting situations like a pro. Face Detection AF finds faces, tracks them as you frame your shot, then delivers perfect focus. New models let you select, track and focus a single face within a group. Face Selector AF* enables to focus on a specific face only. The selected face is being double-framed and tracked when the face moves in the frame. RAW MODE* The PowerShot G9's RAW Mode lets you shoot images without processing them in any way. It gives you complete creative control in editing. RAW images are processed in your computer, using Canon's supplied RAW Image Task software. A wide range of variables can be adjusted in processing to produce exactly the final image you want. AUTO ISO SHIFT* In general, sensitivity should be set to the lowest level the ambient light allows, yet too low a setting can cause camera blurry photos. PowerShot cameras with Auto ISO Shift provide options when shooting to prevent unsatisfactory images. In addition to allowing the user to trigger when the ISO can be changed, Auto ISO Shift now can automatically adjust sensitivity for the given light while notifying the photographer. Face Detection AE makes all your group shots better by properly illuminating both the faces and the background areas. Face Detection AF/AE/FE Face Detection FE* adjusts the flash exposure based on the location of the faces in the frame. 38 * Not on all models. ** Standard output sensitivity. Recommended exposure index. Face Detection only detects faces facing forward. And shows up to 9 frames or 35 frames on select models. * Not on all models. ** Standard output sensitivity.

PowerShot cameras also let you select from preset modes covering common lighting conditions, for example, daylight, cloudy, tungsten, fluorescent, flash, or underwater.* You can even perform manual white balance adjustment using a white reference target, storing the measurement as a custom setting for later recall. SAFETY SHIFT* In Av and Tv modes, a Safety Shift function is available to eliminate exposure errors: the camera will automatically change shutter speed or aperture to work within the ambient brightness conditions. WIRELESS PowreShot SD430 Digital ELPH Wireless cuts cables out of the picture for unrivaled convenience. It allows direct printing, uploading to a computer, transfer to another SD430 Digital ELPH and remote capture. You can register up to eight wireless devices to the camera via the Setup Menu. Plus, the state-of-the art security system prevents thirdparty interception of your images during transfer. SAFETY FE* Safety FE (which can be disabled) makes automatic adjustments to prevent over/under exposed flash shots when shooting in manual mode. SAFETY ZOOM* Set a minimum acceptable megapixel count when you are using digital zoom, and Safety Zoom will make optimal use of the digital zoom range. The zoom pauses at the end of the "safety zoom" rather than at the end of the optical zoom range. INTELLIGENT ORIENTATION SENSOR By automatically sensing whether the picture is being taken horizontally or vertically, PowerShot cameras are able to avoid the typical errors that occur in AutoFocus, Auto Exposure and Auto White Balance with less sophisticated cameras. Moreover, pictures are properly oriented during playback, whether on the camera's screen or a computer monitor. VGA/XGA/720P MOVIE RECORDING* Smooth, high quality movie clips can be captured at full VGA resolution (640 x 480) and 640 x 480 LP mode.
