FEATURES



Smart Auto
Smart Auto mode uses Canon's latest Scene Detection Technology to determine subject brightness, contrast, distance and overall hue, including the ability to differentiate between day-time and low-light (night time) scenarios for an effortless capture of the perfect picture.
The Smart Auto shooting mode intelligently selects the proper settings for the camera based on 18 pre-defined shooting situations
 


Smart FE (Flash Exposure)
During flash photography, Canon uses the scene detection function to determine the distance and shooting conditions to calculate the best flash exposure to produce natural images.
This reduces chances of overexposure when shooting people at close distances, prevention of dark background and shadows on faces when shooting subjects under strong sunlight.
 

New Shooting Modes
Super Vivid increases colour saturation to create images of brilliance vibrancy
 
Poster Effect recreates the feel of an old-style movie poster
