10x optical zoom with optical Image Stabilizer
Optical Image Stabilizer technology counteracts the effect of camera shake. Keep working at slower shutter speeds in low-light conditions. The 10x optical zoom affords framing flexibility with pin-sharp clarity.

8.0 Megapixels
An 8 Megapixel sensor captures enough fine detail for creative cropping and superb quality poster-size prints.

DIGIC III with advanced Noise Reduction
The DIGIC III processor delivers high-speed camera performance, superior colour rendition and cleaner images at high ISO speeds. iSAPS technology uses shooting scene information to optimise camera settings before a shot is taken.

Face Detection Technology
Face Detection Technology ensures superb people shots by automatically setting optimum focus, exposure and flash. Face Select and Track lets you choose your primary subject from up to 35 identified faces. Red-Eye Correction in playback keeps eyes looking natural.

2.5" wide-view LCD screen
A 2.5" LCD screen offers wide viewing angles for easy sharing.

Shooting Modes and My Colors
Choose from 18 shooting modes, including a creative zone for manual control. Get the perfect shot, even in tricky lighting conditions. Quickly select options on the Mode Dial like Portrait, Night Snapshot or Kids & Pets. Enter the Special Scene Modes menu for even more choices. My Colors allows in-camera colour effects to be applied to images and movies.

User-friendly controls
A clear and simple interface with large, clearly labelled buttons and control dial enhance usability and ease of operation for every member of the family.

ISO 1600 and Auto ISO Shift
ISO 1600 combines with optical Image Stabilizer to counteract image blur from camera shake and deliver flash-free results in low-light situations. When camera shake is predicted, Auto ISO Shift automatically increases ISO to further reduce the risk of blurring.

Smooth VGA movies
Record smooth VGA movies with sound. Choose Long Play VGA mode for stronger compression that allows twice as much video to be stored on your memory card.
