The Canon Powershot SX1 IS - the new digital camera. The Canon SX1 IS features 10.0 Megapixel and DIGIC 4 for outstanding images and fast response times.
The Canon Powershot SX1 IS replaces the S5. The Canon SX1 IS raises the benchmark for compact zooms with an outstanding 20x wide-angle (28mm) optical zoom, with USM and VCM for fast, silent, zooming.
This camera features a resolution of 10 Megapixels, capturing all the necessary detail for poster-size prints or creative cropping in post processing. A CMOS sensor allows the Canon SX1 IS to shoot full-resolution JPEGs at speeds of up to 4fps - making it a powerful, pocket-sized tool ideal for capturing fast-paced action sequences.
For the ultimate in visual quality, the Canon Powershot SX1 IS delivers 1080p (30fps) High Definition video - ready for instant playback on any HDTV via a built-in HDMI connection. Movies on the camera are enhanced with CD quality stereo sound, optical zooming and Face Detection Technology; and if extra reach is required, the camera includes Advanced Tele-Converter for an extra 2x zoom with no loss in movie quality.
