From the Manufacturer
---------------------
Loaded with first-of-its-kind features and high-end
capabilities, the Canon Power SD4000 IS Digital ELPH gives
ELPH lovers all new reasons to step up. Never before has Canon
equipped an ELPH with a back-illuminated CMOS sensor-driven HS
System or an f/2.0 lens--both of which deliver incredible images
in low light. And shooting action or sporting events has never
been so fun, with High-Speed Burst mode and the Super Slow Motion
Movie function to mix things up.
You'll control s like a pro with Aperture- and Shutter-
priority modes, and play your 720p HD movies effortlessly on your
HDTV. All this from a super-slim style icon--what more could you
ask?
Power SD4000 IS Highlights
10.0-megapixel CMOS sensor combined with the DIGIC 4 Image
Processor create the Canon HS System
The Canon HS System takes the frustration out of low light
shooting. The system delivers clear, blur-free s with all the
ambiance intact, and frees you from the sometimes unwanted
effects of using the flash. Beautiful low light s 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 Power. The first is the 10.0-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.
Bright f/2.0 lens, great for shooting in low light conditions or
using a shallow depth-of-field
The Canon Power SD4000 IS Digital ELPH sports an f/2.0
aperture, perfect for creating enticing portraits, by drawing
attention to the face and blurring the background with its
impressively shallow depth-of-field. The Macro setting lets you
get even closer. The large aperture also does more. It lets you
capture more nuances in low light shooting by using more of the
available light. You'll be ready for anything with a lens
aperture larger than even many professional sizes.
720p HD movie shooting capability plus HDMI output
The Canon Power SD4000 IS Digital ELPH lets you record
video in beautiful 720p high definition (1280 x 720 pixels). The
camera also makes it easy to enjoy HD movies (and still photos)
on your HDTV with a mini-HDMI connector for direct connection to
a high definition TV monitor. You'll enjoy the HD experience with
no degradation of image or audio in the signal, plus the ability
to display up to 130 still images at once.
Super Slow Motion Movie function and High-Speed Burst mode
Give your movies a whole new look with the Super Slow Motion
Movie function. Whether you're going for a dreamy, creative slant
when documenting family moments, or making a highlight film of
your kids' greatest sports plays, you'll love the high quality
capture of this all-new feature. The camera shoots your clips at
high speed (approx. 240fps) and plays them back at 30fps for the
inimitable super slow motion feeling you'll love.
High-Speed Burst is exactly what you need when you're trying to
capture the best possible within a moment of fast-moving
action. In High-Speed Burst mode, the camera automatically shoots
continuously at high speed (approx. 8.4fps)* while you simply
hold down the shutter. The mode lets you shoot sporting events,
kids in motion, wildlife and any situation with unpredictable
movement, then simply choose the best s captured.
* Depending on the shooting conditions, camera settings and the
zoom position, the shooting speed may slow down. As the number of
images increases, the shooting interval may take longer.
Scene modes such as Miniature Effect and Fisheye Effect, plus
Low Light mode
The Canon Power SD4000 IS Digital ELPH offers creative
effects similar to those found in certain professional lenses.
Miniature Effect creates an illusion where very large objects
appear in miniature proportions. Turn soaring cityscapes into a
scene in seemingly dollhouse-like proportions.
Fisheye Effect uses barrel distortion to warp the image around
the center, giving a distinctive curvature effect to the photo.
The curvilinear images produced by Fisheye Effect can suggest the
curve of the Earth, the inside of a dome, or the image you see
through the peephole of a door.
With an ISO of 400 - 6400, the Low Light mode takes the Canon
Power SD4000 IS Digital ELPH where no ELPH-Series has gone
before - into the shadows! Now even scenes notorious for having
insufficient light, such as those lit by candles, fire, or street
lamp, come through in fantastic color and clarity, with less
noise. You can keep the feel of the scene intact without adding
additional light, so the result will be scenes with the visual
accuracy, depth and clarity you expect from a Canon camera.
Shooting Modes
Advanced presets for the best possible photos under certain
conditions. With 23 Shooting Modes, you're ready for whatever
comes your way.
Shoot like a pro with Aperture- and Shutter-priority modes
For photography enthusiasts, the ability to control aperture
and shutter speed is key. The Aperture- and Shutter-priority
modes on the Canon Power SD4000 IS Digital ELPH make it easy
for anyone to take extra control over the look and feel of images
captured.
In Aperture-priority mode, you set the aperture and the camera
automatically selects an appropriate shutter speed. This lets you
create sharp subjects with beautifully blurred backgrounds, and
landscapes with foreground, middle ground and background all in
focus.
Shutter-priority mode lets you choose a shutter speed while the
camera automatically selects the aperture. Higher shutter speeds
are great for catching stop-action s of moving subjects,
while lower shutter speeds can create atmospheric blur.
