Amstelveen, The Netherlands, 20 August, 2007: Canon today reinforces its position as a leader in digital imaging technology with the launch of six new models. Each of the cameras – four PowerShot and two Digital IXUS models – is equipped with Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology and high ISO capabilities, providing a comprehensive anti-blur solution that maintains optimal image quality. Combined with a DIGIC III processor driving improved
Face Detection Technology and Red-Eye Correction in playback, Canon’s newest cameras are designed to improve the technical quality of every photograph – from spur-of-the-moment snapshots to thoughtful artistic compositions.
