Canon ELPH 500 HS Silver Powershot 12.1 Megapixel Digital Camera - ELPH500HSSL
Simply Touch and Go! Experience an even more intuitive touch panel technology
with the PowerShot ELPH 500 HS digital camera. Do almost everything right on
the LCD - like choosing an AF point, set exposure settings and record videos
- all with the touch of one finger. The PowerShot ELPH 500 HS brings the art
of photography at your command. It's packed with great Canon essentials like
an f/2.0 lens, the HS SYSTEM, 1080p Full HD video and 24mm Wide-Angle Lens so
every moment is captured in pure Canon brilliance.
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 with stereo sound, plus a dedicated
movie button for easy access. Zoom optically while shooting video and keep
footage stabilized with Dynamic IS.
- A large 3.2-inch touch panel LCD offers easy and intuitive operation.
- A bright f/2.0 lens, 24mm ultra Wide-Angle lens, great for shooting portrait
photography in low light conditions or using a shallow depth-of-field for
great images with beautiful soft backgrounds.
- Get high-speed shooting in a point-and-shoot camera: High-speed Burst Mode
captures 8.2fps and Super Slow Motion Movie records video at high speeds to
allow slow motion playback.
- 4.4x Optical Zoom Lens and Optical Image Stabilizer.
- Smart AUTO intelligently selects the proper settings for the camera based
on 32 predefined shooting situations.
- Aperture- and Shutter-priority modes for extra control of your images.
- 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.
