Once the camera is linked to your computer on the same wireless network, you can automatically transfer images to it, for easy saving and organizing of your photos. The Mobile Device Connect Button is great for quick and easy sharing from a fun day out with friends and family.
Selfie-ready LCD and New Self Portrait Mode
The LCD screen on the PowerShot N2 camera is one of its most fun features. The easy-to-use capacitive touch panel screen is 2.8 inches and high resolution ensures a crystal clear display. Best of all, you can set it to multiple angles, including a 180deg. tilt that's perfect for selfies. When the LCD is turned to this position, an icon for the new Self Portrait mode will appear. Simply touch to smooth and brighten skin, create beautiful background blur, even activate a self-timer. Then just snap and post!
Advanced Creative Shot Mode
Creating artistic photos that really get noticed is fun and easy with the powerful Creative Shot mode on the PowerShot N2 camera. In this mode, the camera captures the original composition, then automatically produces and saves five additional variations. These variations are generated using advanced Canon technologies to apply filter options that are not simply layered on, but rather based on complex analysis of the individual scene, subject and exposure, for impressive images you'll love to share. 46 filter choices are available and are grouped into Retro, Monochrome, Special and Natural categories to make exploring your options fun and easy.
Unique Symmetrical Design
The PowerShot N2 camera is designed to be held with equal comfort in whatever way will get you the shot you want - freedom that will inspire more creativity in your images. Controls are symmetrical on the left and right panels and the zoom ring/shutter ring is usable from any direction for great slanted camera angles. Best of all, the capacitive touch panel LCD rotates 180 degrees to the perfect position for selfies.
All-around Shutter Release
The PowerShot N2 camera is designed to help you capture your most creative images and that extends to its unique shutter release. Simply press anywhere around the perimeter of the camera's shutter ring to release the shutter. Because this allows the camera to be held in any position, you can easily achieve the great high angle, low angle and slanted compositions that will make your images stand out.
8x Optical Zoom and 28mm Wide-Angle lens with Optical Image Stabilizer for excellent image quality
The PowerShot N2 houses a Genuine Canon 8x Optical Zoom Lens in the center of its square-shaped body, allowing you to capture powerful shots with outstanding optical performance and versatility. The zoom starts at 28mm wide-angle and extends to 224mm telephoto (35mm equivalent), covering a wide and highly useful range. The telephoto reach gives you the freedom to capture subjects from afar, while the 28mm wide-angle makes it easy to shoot sweeping landscapes, large groups of people and tall buildings.
Optical Image Stabilizer
Handheld shooting can often lead to camera shake, making photos and videos blurry. Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer is a sophisticated system that uses lens-shift technology to correct for unwanted camera movement. It makes handheld photography more practical in more shooting situations, providing excellent image quality in many difficult situations: outdoors at dusk, inside without a flash and even at the telephoto end of the zoom range without a tripod. For photos, it enables shooting at slower shutter speeds, accommodating more low-light shooting situations than ever before without having to boost ISO sensitivity. With camera shake and vibration reduced, you get a sharper, steadier image. And because it is an optical system, there is none of the image degradation typical with electronic image stabilizers.
16.1 Megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor
The PowerShot N2 camera employs a Canon 16.1 Megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor to capture precious moments in the quality they deserve. Delivering state-of-the-art imaging performance and optimized for use in compact cameras, the sensor utilizes a sophisticated light-capturing design to provide high sensitivity for improved high ISO capture with reduced noise. It is capable of rapidly capturing and moving image data to the processor, enabling faster continuous shooting and faster autofocus.
DIGIC 6 Image Processor
A camera made for capturing the moment in a whole new way, the PowerShot N2 camera is equipped with the very latest Canon proprietary processor, the DIGIC 6 Image Processor. With the DIGIC 6 Image Processor, improved light sensitivity allows for higher resolution with less noise when shooting in dark conditions and Dynamic IS detects and compensates for tilt and parallel movement (shift blur) to create video that's exceptionally free of distortion. And video recording is better than ever, as the DIGIC 6 Image Processor enables Full HD in MP4 format. Highly compressed MP4 video not only preserves space on your memory card but also improves playback on mobile devices.
Canon HS SYSTEM helps provide excellent low-light performance
The PowerShot N2 camera features the renowned Canon HS SYSTEM to capture the moment with spectacular depth, detail and emotional resonance. With the Canon HS SYSTEM - a combination of the camera's 16.1 Megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor and the powerful DIGIC 6 Image Processor - you'll experience excellent tracking performance even in low light and achieve gorgeous still image quality at high ISO speeds; beautiful low-light shots are possible with minimal noise and maximum detail in highlight and shadow areas. The Canon HS SYSTEM also lets you use higher shutter speeds to capture clearer images with reduced noise and blur in a variety of situations for incredible photos and videos.
