The easy-to-use PowerShot A1100 IS uses Scene Detection, Face Detection and Motion Detection to optimise settings and ensure great results – it’s as simple as pointing and shooting. With a 12.1 MP sensor, you can capture every scene in incredible detail – print up to A2 size, or crop to achieve the desired composition without losing the detail necessary for larger prints. A 4x optical zoom allows for a wide choice of framing options. Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer keeps images sharp by reducing the effects of camera shake throughout the zoom range. Smart Auto mode uses intelligent Scene Detection Technology to determine subject brightness, contrast, distance and overall hue. The camera then selects the most appropriate scene mode from a total of 18 to obtain perfect settings for the scene. Easy mode ensures correct camera usage by deactivating all buttons except those used for shooting.
