| Canon PowerShot SX260 HS Digital Camera Capture it all. The fact that the PowerShot SX260 HS digital camera is an ultra-slim camera with a powerful 20x optical zoom optical image stabilization (Intelligent IS) and 25mm wide-angle lens is only the beginning of its attractions. Youll see detail you never thought possible through the huge zoom and wide-angle lens while the cameras 12.1 megapixel high-sensitivity CMOS sensor and DIGIC 5 image processor deliver the rich clear low-light performance that is the hallmark of Canons HS SYSTEM. 1080p Full HD video in stereo is more beautiful than ever with new high-resolution high-speed processing. Sophisticated advancements include improved Smart AUTO that optimizes settings for 58 predefined shooting situations Face ID that prioritizes pre-registered faces and GPS for tracking and recording your shooting locations. Key Features: Ultra-slim Camera with powerful 20x Optical Zoom Optical Image Stabilization and 25mm Wide-Angle Lens At just over 1 1/4 inches thick the PowerShot SX260 HS is an ultra-slim digital camera with a powerful 20x Optical Zoom. But because its lens embodies the quality and legacy of Genuine Canon Optics its advantages go far beyond making the camera slim enough to slip in your pocket and carry anywhere. With a range of 25mm - 500mm (35mm equivalent) the lens gives you the power to capture the full breadth of scenes with details youve never captured before. Images are bright and vivid with spectacular clarity thanks to Optical Image Stabilization. Optical Image Stabilizer Handheld shooting can often lead to camera shake making photos and videos blurry. Canons Optical Image Stabilizer is a sophisticated system that uses lens-shift technology to correct for unwanted camera movement. It makes handheld photography more practical providing excellent image quality in many difficult shooting situations: outdoors at dusk inside without a flash and even at the telephoto end of the zoom range without a tripod. For photos it enables shooting at slower shutter speeds accommodating more low-light shooting situations than ever before without having to boost ISO sensitivity. With camera shake and vibration reduced you get a sharper steadier image. And because it is an optical system there is none of the image degradation typical with electronic image stabilizers. UA Lens Technology Pioneered by Canon UA Lens technology makes possible compact lenses with remarkable optical performance. By using molded glass with an ultra-high refractive index in aspherical lens elements Canon has succeeded in reducing lens size while significantly reducing image aberrations. Another stellar example of cutting-edge Canon optics UA Lens technology helps make PowerShot digital cameras pocket-friendly and capable of astounding image quality. Canon HS SYSTEM The Canon HS SYSTEM lets you take bright clear photos in an even wider range of shooting situations. Beautiful low-light shots are possible with minimal noise and maximum detail in highlight and shadow areas. The system is the result of two technologies brought together in PowerShot cameras: a high-sensitivity imaging sensor which is able to capture more light; and the DIGIC 5 Image Processor which actively reduces noise with high-speed image processing. The 12.1 Megapixel Canon CMOS sensor in the PowerShot SX260 HS incorporates advanced light reception technology that enhances sensitivity. The DIGIC 5 Image Processor provides a major boost in noise reduction expanding the usable ISO range to an amazing high of ISO 3200. The Canon HS SYSTEM thus lets you use higher shutter speeds to capture clearer images with reduced noise and blur. Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor The latest-generation Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor brings phenomenal increases in processing speed and power. Improved chip architecture and algorithms deliver greatly expanded functionality with further refinement in image quality. Improved noise reduction produces clearer images when shooting in low light at high ISO speeds. Enhanced i-Contrast performance adjusts differences between light and dark areas to achieve even more natural-looking results. The faster processing speed also results in faster continuous shooting capability while maintaining full image quality. The DIGIC 5 Image Processor also makes possible a new highly advanced automatic white balance system. Whereas conventional white balance makes an overall adjustment based on a single type of light source the new Canon Multi-Area White Balance analyzes several areas of the image to determine whether different adjustments are needed for example for the main subject and the background. Canon Full HD Video Advantage In addition to the Canon HS SYSTEM the combination of the advanced CMOS sensor and DIGIC 5 Image Processor in the PowerShot SX260 HS makes it possible to shoot crisp clear high definition video. Imagine the fun and excitement of being able to shoot spectacular 1080p Full HD video with stereo sound that you can later watch on your HDTV or download to your computer to share with family and friends. In addition to being able to shoot Full HD 1080p video at 24 frames per second the PowerShot SX260 HS can also shoot 720p HD video at 30 frames per second. Dedicated Movie Button Wind filter feature and Optical Zoom for easy video capture Its never been easier to shoot videos with a PowerShot digital camera. The PowerShot SX260 HS has a dedicated movie button that lets you start and stop recording instantly. There is no need to go through layers of menus or operate switches or dials to switch to and from video recording mode. The camera is always ready to shoot stills or video whenever you want. The PowerShot SX260 HS also incorporates an electronic wind filter which suppresses wind noise that can muffle or distort the sound. And unlike less sophisticated point-and-shoot cameras the PowerShot SX260 HS lets you use the full range of optical zoom when youre shooting a video. HDTV playback via HDMI output and CEC Its easy to enjoy and share the videos you shoot with the PowerShot SX260 HS. Simply connect its HDMI terminal to your HDTV using an HDMI cable. And because the PowerShot SX260 HS supports HDMI-CEC technology youll be able to control the playback of your images and videos on any CEC-enabled HDTV using the TVs remote control. (CEC - Consumer Electronic Control - is part of the HDMI specification enabling components in a system to communicate with one another.) iFrame With the PowerShot SX260 HS you can also shoot video in the Apple iFrame format which is a computer-friendly standard that speeds up importing and editing of videos. It keeps file sizes small making it more convenient to upload or e-mail high-quality videos. The iFrame format enjoys native support in compatible Mac and Windows video applications making it unnecessary to perform time-consuming and often quality-degrading conversions. Smart AUTO Smart AUTO for the PowerShot SX260 HS has been significantly expanded making it easier than ever to capture the sharp bright colorful images - and videos - youre looking for. By assessing various factors in both the background and the subject the system recognizes 58 predefined shooting situations and automatically selects the camera settings that will yield the best possible results. Simply frame the shot you want and in dozens of common or challenging scenarios the camera takes care of the rest. Hard-to-capture shots such as moving subjects night scenes backlit subjects and landscapes at evening or on a bright snowy day are instantly and effortlessly captured as keeper shots. Smart AUTO makes the PowerShot SX260 HS ideal for capturing excellent quality still images and video on the go. Face ID Face ID is one of the most advanced and exciting new features of the PowerShot SX260 HS giving you an easy way to improve every shot of the people you love. Simply take a picture of up to 12 faces you would like the camera to register then enter n |
