The PowerShot SD800 IS features a high res 7.1 Megapixel CCD to give you images of uncompromising texture & detail. With it, you'll capture what others miss, the delicate strands of a baby's hair, the intricate petals of a wild flower. Plus the camera is as beautiful to hold as the images it takes. The Perpetual Curve design has the look of fine sculpture. Yet it's practical, too. Its unique form is engineered for the shape of your hand
Engineered with Canon's sophisticated wide-angle 3.8x zoom lens with integrated Image Stabilizer technology, the SD800 IS Digital ELPH gives you the "shake-free" performance that makes your pictures sharp & clear. No matter how close you zoom in, the SD800 IS Digital ELPH keeps everything stable. All you have to think about is your subject
The DIGIC III Image Processor is the latest advancement to Canon's proprietary DIGIC technology, delivering superior image quality, ultra-responsive performance and extended battery life. It provides a speedier interface for the SD800 IS Digital ELPH's SD memory card as well as higher definition for its LCD monitor
DIGIC III also empowers Face Detection AF/AE, which finds all the faces in the frame & sets the most suitable focus point, when the shutter button is depressed half-way. Exposure & flash are controlled to ensure proper illumination of both the faces & the overall scene, eliminating the common problem of darkened or overexposed faces
>iSAPS Technology is an oriiginal scene-recognition technology developed by Canon. Using an internal database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works with the fast DIGIC III Image Processor to improve focus speed & accuracy, as well as exposure & white balance
