Canon SX230 HS Blue Powershot 12.1 Megapixel Digital Camera - SX230HSBL
Capture the World Through a PowerShot. Travel the world with the new
PowerShot SX230 HS digital camera. It's the first Canon PowerShot to come with
GPS technology that'll automatically tag your photos with time and locations.
You can even view all the photos' locations on a map by using special bundled
software. And with amazing features, such as the HS SYSTEM, 12.1 Megapixels,
14x Wide-Angle Optical Zoom and 1080p Full HD Video, the stylish PowerShot SX230
HS is your essential traveling companion!
Experience the Power. The Canon HS SYSTEM takes the frustration out
of low light shooting. The system delivers clear, blur-free shots with all the
ambiance intact, and frees you from the sometimes unwanted effects of using
the flash. Beautiful low light shots are possible at both low and high ISO speeds,
and the dynamic range is expanded to retain maximum detail in highlight and
shadow areas.
The system is the result of two technologies brought together in a compact
PowerShot. The first is the 12.1 Megapixel CMOS Sensor, which positions the
light-receiving surface for optimal light reception. More light means clearer,
blur-free images with plenty of detail and nuance, even in dark areas. Working
together with the CMOS sensor to deliver the HS SYSTEM is Canon's advanced DIGIC
4 Image Processor, which actively reduces noise and delivers high speed image
processing.
Features:
- Canon's HS SYSTEM with a 12.1 Megapixel CMOS and DIGIC 4 Image Processor
improves shooting in low-light situations without the need for a flash and
lowers noise levels at higher ISO settings.
- Full 1080p HD Video for exceptional quality and keep footage stabilized
with Dynamic IS.
- Remember where you were and when your pictures were taken with a GPS tracker
that records your location, and a logger lets you view the locations on a
map via Canon's software.
- Powerful 14x Optical Zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer and a 28mm Wide-Angle
lens. Great overall zoom for a family vacation to your favorite tourist destination.
- Smart AUTO intelligently selects the proper settings for the camera based
on 32 predefined shooting situations.
- Movie Digest Mode records a short video clip right before shooting a still
image and then combines one day's worth of clips into one video.
- New scene modes, Toy Camera Effect and Monochrome, add an artistic look
to your photos.
- Large, bright 3.0-inch wide PureColor System LCD with high resolution and
wide viewing angle.
