Power SD790IS Highlights
1x zoom/3x zoom Advanced 10-megapixel Digital ELPH with 3x
optical zoom and Optical Image Stabilizer The Power SD790 IS
Digital ELPH offers impressive core technologies. The
10.0-megapixel CCD gives you extraordinary flexibility in
cropping and enlarging: the detail and resolution are so fine
that you can take any part of an image and it with
confidence. The 3x optical zoom can more than handle your
everyday shooting. Canon’s exclusive Optical Image Stabilizer
automatically detects and cancels camera shake, ensuring that
your images are crisp and blur-free throughout the zoom range.
Motion Detection Technology automatically detects subject
movement and optimizes exposure control to reduce blur Life
doesn’t stand still for picture-taking. That’s why Canon included
its advanced Motion Detection Technology in the Power SD790
IS Digital ELPH. This sophisticated feature works in the
background to instantly evaluate how fast your subject is moving.
Then it automatically selects and sets the optimal exposure and
ISO settings to keep everything looking sharp and clear. When you
need higher ISOs for action-stopping shutter speeds, Motion
Detection Technology provides it. But when no movement is
detected, it allows lower ISOs for excellent color and detail. So
whether you’re shooting a bride walking down the aisle, a ballet
recital or even a child’s soccer game, you can relax and shoot
with confidence knowing you’ve got the picture you intended.
Large 3.0-inch PureColor LCD II screen for bright, accurate
color and wide viewing angle The Power SD790 IS Digital ELPH
gives you large 3.0-inch LCD screen for excellent control when
framing your s. Canon’s PureColor LCD II offers more
spectacular color, resolution and contrast even when viewed at an
angle (compared to PureColor LCD). The screen is highly durable
and easy to see in any light with a scratch-resistant,
anti-reflective coating. It also features Night Display for easy
viewing in low light -- a perfect feature for gathering friends
and family around to see your images.
With Canon's Face Detection WB (right), skin tones are not
affected by overall lighting Improved Face Detection Technology
sets the focus, exposure, flash and white balance automatically
Canon's powerful Face Detection Technology delivers even better
results with the new SD790 IS Digital ELPH. The Face Detection
Technology continues to recognize faces in a scene, concentrate
exposure (daylight or flash) and focus upon them. But the SD790
IS Digital ELPH adds more: Face Detection WB means the camera
concentrates upon faces when calculating white balance for the
best possible skin tones. Face Select and Track lets the SD790 IS
Digital ELPH user highlight one face among several in a scene,
and the camera concentrates on that person, even as they move
around the scene. Face Detection Technology is a powerful
contributing factor in Canon's new Motion Detection Technology.
And with 19 Shooting Modes including 12 Special Scene Modes,
you’re ready for whatever comes your way.
Edgy, stylish design combined with a cool new button
configuration for great operability It’s all about edge with the
Power SD790 IS Digital ELPH. Sculptured angles not only
ratchet up this Digital ELPH’s "look at me" quotient, but add an
extra degree of control for superior handling. Gleaming cut
surfaces emphasize the camera’s slim style. A cutting-edge
control dial makes accessing functions and operations easier than
ever. Large, flat buttons in an intuitive configuration are
uniquely attractive and fun to use.
DIGIC III Image Processor for superior image quality and
improved functionality With DIGIC III, your images boast superior
quality, the camera operates at top efficiency and battery life
is enhanced. What’s more, DIGIC III enables Canon’s Face
Detection Technology and Red-eye Correction to give you better,
more true-to-life people s. Simply press the Shutter Button
halfway down, and the camera automatically pinpoints the faces in
the scene and chooses the ideal focus point. The camera controls
exposure settings and flash to keep every face looking bright and
natural. Red-eye Correction can be handled in-camera, in two
ways. The entirely new Red-eye Correction during shooting uses
the Face Detection Technology to recognize and remove red-eye
from flash images as they're taken, before the file is written to
the memory card. It's also possible to correct red-eye during
image playback, using simple settings in the SD790 IS Digital
ELPH's menu.
iSAPS Technology is an entirely original scene-re
technology developed for digital cameras by Canon. Using an
internal database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works
with the fast DIGIC III Image Processor to improve focus speed
and accuracy, as well as exposure and white balance.
Red-eye Correction provides three options for removing red-eye
from subjects in flash pictures.
1) The new Red-eye Correction during shooting actually
identifies and corrects red-eye in human subjects as pictures are
taken.
2) The SD790 IS Digital ELPH can be set to automatically detect
and correct red-eye during image playback.
3) The user can manually locate any red eyes in a scene during
image playback on the LCD screen, and command the camera to
remove them.
The Power SD790 IS Digital ELPH also features ISO 1600 and
High ISO Auto settings that reduce the effects of camera shake
and sharpen subjects in low-light situations, giving you greater
shooting flexibility.

Power SD790 IS Digital ELPH's Print/Share button makes direct
printing easier than ever. Simply connect the SD790 IS Digital
ELPH to a Canon PIXMA photo printer or SELPHY compact photo
printer or any PictBridge compatible photo printer, press the
lighted Print/Share button and print! Also use the Print/Share
button to transfer images to a computer (Windows and Macintosh).
