Combining function with fashion, the stylish new 5.0 megapixel PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH series focuses on fall colors and optical zoom lenses.
Metallics are back! Designed with the fashion conscious trendsetter in mind, the PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH camera comes in four new attractive colors designed to coordinate with other fashion accessories for a night on the town. Replacing Canon's previous line of fashion-focused cameras, the PowerShot SD20 Digital ELPH series, the new models keep in line with fall 2005 fashion's "must have colors" for the season. The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras will be available in the metallic finishes of Tuxedo Black, Rockstar Red, Glamour Gold and Vivacious Violet. These cameras also come with color coordinated cases for each camera color.
The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras incorporate a great measure of functional beauty and sense of lightness, thanks to the adoption of the latest design techniques and new color variations. The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras incorporate a full range of high-performance features, including a 5.0 Megapixel CCD, a retractable 2.4x optical zoom lens (35mm film equivalent: 38-90mm) and 4.0x digital zoom. The cameras also feature Canon's exclusive DIGIC II image processor, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity, and an easy-to-read 1.8-inch LCD screen, which is larger than their predecessors.
The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras feature an impressive 16 shooting modes, including Auto, Camera M (manual), Macro, Portrait, Landscape, Night Snapshot, My Colors, seven Special Scene modes (Kids and Pets, Indoor, Foliage, Snow, Beach, Fireworks and Underwater1), Stitch Assist and Movie. While in movie mode, the PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH offers three movie modes: Standard, My Colors and Compact.
Canon's new PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH models is supplied with a new Camera Station, the CS-DC1, which lets consumers easily charge their camera. It also enables video output, image transfer to a PC and direct printing, via the supplied wireless remote control.
True to the PowerShot tradition, this new PowerShot digital camera has many of the latest advances in Canon technology including the proprietary DIGIC II imaging processor. The processor enhances picture definition, vibrancy and quality, while helping increase the speed of the cameras' startup, autofocus, shutter response, playback and image processing speed and reducing power consumption by 35 percent compared to the original DIGIC chip. Image transfer speed is accelerated (when used with a USB 2.0 compatible computer, printer or other peripheral), thanks to the inclusion of a Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. The USB 2.0 port is backwards compatible (at no increased speed) with computers featuring standard USB 1.1 connections.
