WHITE BALANCE Canon iSAPS Technology helps ensure fast, accurate, automatic white balance compensation. PowerShot cameras also let you select from preset modes covering common lighting conditions including daylight, cloudy, tungsten, fluorescent, flash, or underwater. You can even perform a manual white balance adjustment using a white reference target, storing the measurement as a custom setting for later recall. Movie & Sound Recording HD MOVIES AND STEREO SOUND* Select PowerShot models give you the ultimate convenience of recording HD movies from a still camera, whether in Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) or 720p HD (1280 x 720 pixels), for dazzling clarity and realism. Additional features available include video with stereo sound. Daylight: For shooting outdoors on sunny days. Cloudy: For shooting outdoors on cloudy days. Tungsten: Provides a good balance with photofloods or incandescent household lights. Fluorescent: Compensates for the greenish cast caused by common fluorescent tubes. Fluorescent H: For recording under daylight fluorescent lighting. Flash: A good starting point with many studio strobes. Underwater*: For shooting underwater.** SAFETY ZOOM SAFETY ZOOM* Set a minimum acceptable megapixel count for images taken when using the digital zoom, and Safety Zoom will let you make optimal use of the digital zoom range. The zoom pauses at the end of your preset safety range, rather than at the end of the optical zoom range. DIGITAL TELE-CONVERTER* The digital tele-converter feature lets you shoot subjects at great distances without mounting a separate tele converter lens. Simply select one of two magnification levels from the menu. 16:9 WIDESCREEN RESOLUTION* Select PowerShot models feature a Widescreen recording setting. Images captured in Widescreen have a 16:9 aspect ratio, so you'll see no warping or cropping when viewing them on widescreen televisions or computer monitors. VGA HD FULL HD VGA MOVIE RECORDING All PowerShot cameras offer smooth 30 fps, high quality movie clips captured in VGA (640 x 480). Some models also have VGA LP mode or QVGA mode (320 x 240). Zoom and exposure compensation continue to work on both stills and movies as does Face Detection AF/AE/FE/WB. MOVIESNAP* Great shots can happen at any time, even while you're recording a movie. MovieSnap lets you capture a special moment as a high-resolution still image while simultaneously shooting a movie: simply press the shutter button down fully. The camera will record the image at the same resolution and compression rate you've previously selected. 38 ** With an optional waterproof case except for D10. PowerShot Technology LCD/Playback Features PURECOLOR SYSTEM LCD* Canon's PureColor System LCD gives its PowerShot LCD screens unmatched clarity and durability. Color is faithfully reproduced from any viewing angle and a high contrast ratio ensures excellent visibility, making it easy to frame your shot and see exactly what you're capturing. VARI-ANGLE LCD SCREEN* The screen conveniently flips out, allowing you to tilt the LCD up or down to minimize reflections or compose at unusual shooting angles. Rotate forward for perfectly framed self-portraits. 270° 170° Conventional LCD with PureColor System LCD Low angle shooting COATING FOR LCD SCREENS & WIDE VIEWING ANGLE* Many PowerShot models with 2.5-inch to 3.0-inch LCD screens now have an extra measure of durability: a stain-, dust-, scratch-, and fingerprint-resistant coating on the LCD screen. In addition, the top and bottom edges have an anti-reflective coating for clear visibility even in strong sunlight. Images and menu text are all easier to see and work with. Select PowerShot models have an anti-reflective coating on the surface of the LCD so images are vivid even from wide angles. This Wide Viewing Angle feature makes it easy to show your images to a group of family, friends or colleagues. NIGHT DISPLAY FUNCTION* When you are shooting at dusk or at night, Night Display function lets you see the LCD screen clearly. Objects in the screen are brightened to make shooting easy. With Without Night Display Night Display REAL-TIME HISTOGRAM* A Histogram LCD display of the image you've just taken shows you brightness values in graphic form, allowing you to make informed adjustments on subsequent shots. Some models feature Real-Time Histogram, displaying the brightness distribution of the scene in real time during shooting. * Not on all models. 39 PowerShot Technology
