A quick look around any fine online camera store these days and one thing becomes immediately clear. That one thing is – you really don’t have to spend a fortune to get quality anymore.

Canon has just released a new IXUS model, the 110 IS – which continues the Canon tradition of mid-range cameras chalked full of outstanding features. If any single range of cameras best sums up Canon’s ‘bang for buck’ philosophy, it must be the IXUS.

Take a look at some of the IXUS 110 IS features…

12.1 Megapixels

The number of megapixels determines the amount of sharp detail a digital camera can record. With more megapixels, you can print at larger sizes, plus crop and enlarge without sacrificing quality. IXUS cameras provide all the resolution you need for finely detailed, photo-quality prints with plenty of scope for post-shoot cropping.

4x Optical Zoom

Get the shot you want with a powerful 4x Optical Zoom and genuine Canon optics. Not only does the zoom get you up close quickly, but Canon optical technology ensures that your shots are bright, clear, and alive with true, vivid color.

Optical Image Stabilizer

Any slight shake while hand-holding a camera can cause blurred photos. Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology ensures crisp, clear images by detecting and correcting this camera shake. The camera is able to microscopically adjust its own lens with absolute accuracy up to 4,000 times every second, so the image you see is the image you capture.

Motion Detection

When the camera detects a face, Motion Detection Technology will now adaptively vary the shutter speed according to the speed of the face movement. The amount of camera shake is also taken into consideration and the aperture is set to obtain the optimum exposure for that perfect shutter speed.

Face Detection Technology

Canon’s Face Detection Technology ensures superb people shots by automatically detecting subjects in the frame and setting the correct focus, flash level and exposure. With Blink Detection technology turned on the camera will show a warning that a person in the photo had their eyes closed. This displays for three seconds whilst reviewing the shot right after shooting.

Summary

From a huge 12mp lens to integrated optical stabilizers, face detection and wide-screen movie capability, the IXUS from Canon contains everything possible the average camera toting tourist or home movie aficionado could want – all in one small and sleek package.

Available in no less than four different colours, the CANON IXUS IS 110 is now available from all good camera retailers.
