Canon Introduces Elite Technology The SX200 IS boasts powerful performance and intuitive technology, ensuring fantastic shots, regardless of the user's experience. The PowerShot model features Canon's newest technology, Intelligent Auto. Intelligent Auto combines a new Scene Detection technology with Canon's Face Detection, Noise Reduction and Motion Detection technologies all in the one Automatic mode to ensure that users can easily capture great shots every time. The new Scene Detection technology makes capturing stunning shots easy by automatically detecting people, distance, brightness, colour and movement information to determine the shooting scene, such as Portrait, Night, Macro, Backlit or even Sunset. The technology then carries out the optimum image processing for that scene, ensuring superior quality images. Another milestone for Canon is the inclusion of Blink Detection technology, which easily identifies when a person has blinked in a photograph. Immediately after shooting, a warning that a person in the photo blinked displays for three seconds. This function will do your memories justice by ensuring you get the shot you want. Superior Image Quality Boasting a 12.1 megapixel CCD sensor and DIG!C 4 image processor, the PowerShot SX200 IS produces spectacular images. Shooting, playback and image verification is also made easier with a high resolution large 3-inch LCD screen, featuring a wide viewing angle and expanded colour reproduction. This makes the screen easy to view, even in bright sunlight and, with a protective layer over the screen, it is more resistant to scratches and fingerprints.
