Awesome one in SX Series. Review on Canon Powershot SX110 IS

This new model in SX series has a full range of Canon technologies – including Face Detection Technology, Motion Detection Technology and a new Easy Mode – help everyone take great photos, while experienced users can also enjoy the creative possibilities offered by full manual control.

Maximum reach, minimum weight

With a 10x Canon optical zoom – featuring a 35mm film equivalent focal length of 36-360mm - the PowerShot SX110 IS brings even distant subjects into view, making it the perfect camera for everything from school sports days to family holidays. Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer technology combats the effects of camera shake, delivering sharp, blur-free shots throughout the camera’s extensive zoom range.

Effortless ease and creative control

The PowerShot SX110 IS features a wide range of 20 shooting modes designed to achieve optimum results in a wide range of lighting conditions – a great help for users of all levels, from complete novices to more experienced photographers. Shooting modes include a new Easy Mode, which sees all shooting settings chosen automatically by the camera – perfect for beginners

prone to making unsuitable adjustments. Easy Mode also limits Playback

options to simple image viewing and deletion functions. At the other

end of the spectrum, experienced users can switch to full manual

control, and customize settings for special effects or unusual lighting.

To keep shots looking sharp, Motion Detection Technology – activated in

High ISO Auto mode – uses Face Detection Technology, the optical Image

Stabilizer and scene information to identify subject motion and

camera-shake. ISO is also optimized for minimum blur and maximum image

quality.

Printing

The PowerShot SX110 IS features a

dedicated Print menu for quick access to direct print options. Full

PictBridge support means users can print directly to any PictBridge

compatible printer without the need for a PC. A Print/Share button

allows one-touch printing and easy uploads to Windows or Mac systems.
