Bring creativity to your photos with new scene modes such as Miniature Effect and Fisheye Effect The Canon PowerShot SD1400 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. ISO of 400-6400 in Low Light mode 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. New Smart Shutter technology Smart Shutter, which includes Smile Self-Timer, Wink Self-timer and Face Self-timer, detects faces in the scene and releases the shutter automatically in response to the appearance of an additional face, or when a smile or sassy wink occurs. These technologies take the guesswork out of your photography, allowing you to focus solely on your subject and get the perfect shot.

The Canon SD1400IS is compact and capable SDesign In short, this is an excellent camera in a very small package that works well! I wanted a small portable camera with video capabilities of high definition could take with me when I did not want to take my digital SLR (Canon 40D + lenses) and this little gem fits the bill. This camera replaced a Canon PowerShot SD780IS (Black), I came back because of the constant noise in audio (beep) while recording video. Rather than risk another bad SD780IS with the same subject (many seem to have heard the noise / hum), I decided to upgrade to the latest Canon PowerShot SD1400IS (Black). I am pleased that this camera has no problem with the audio and video recording. The image quality of the SD780IS and SD1400IS is approximately the same height and with what one would expect from an ultra-portable camera small. 12MP to 14MP ranging from a wash if the sensor is the same and the results are very similar, I have some pictures of flowers placed under "customer images" in Canon PowerShot SD1400IS MP 14.1 (black) and also uploaded several 100% crops from each image pixel as Peepers can see detail that this camera produces. Let me be clear, anyone who thinks that this camera will produce anything near the quality of a DSLR fool yourself. There is no way that this small of a package (3.6 x 0.7 x 2.2 inch, 4.6 grams), the same picture quality as a DSLR to produce. If the image quality on the ruling, would be better because of the 10MP Canon PowerShot S90 digital camera, but you lose the HD video capabilities, portability and spend some more money. If I want extreme quality, I use my Canon 40D + lens with me and shoot in RAW. Auto mode is smart and I think there is more going on behind the scenes than one would expect. If someone the same image (same ISO settings, exposure, shutter speed, etc.) in Auto mode and then program the results are similar, but I think the car will win almost every time. I can not confirm this, but Auto seems to various compression algorithms, depending on the subject and may result in less noise at higher ISO, so the program can. Inside shots are fine, but I wish I could set a range to force the ISO to Auto ISO does not exceed 400. Tip: If you are getting blurred images, remember that the minimum focusing distance is much less than 5 cm in 28 mm and 50 cm significantly more than the 112 mm zoom. So if you try the camera too close to your subject to get you properly evaluate your zoom / subject distances, otherwise the matter will be blurry. Perhaps this would have helped one star reviewer. End parts of Caution: 1. No display, and frankly, the small display, SD780IS was useless, so I do not miss with. The LCD is bright and works very well on bright days 2. There is no optical zoom during video recording, digital zoom only, so you must decide on a zoom long before you start recording. This is a non-issue for me, as the overuse of zoom, and many people in general would be better to record rather than simply a static shot deal with me dizzy shaky-cam + zoom at the same time. Bottom line: This is a handheld device capable of decent pictures with amazing HD video recording as a bonus. It 'pretty little getting caught all over the world to capture all those special moments. I highly recommend it to anyone, because they realize the limitations of ultra-compact cameras. I hope this is a critical factor is useful. Update: I forgot to mention that you must be sure to get more of a "Class 4" SD Card (Class 6 would be even better) to avoid problems with video recording (lost frames, etc.) ) Update 2: Still Loving use this camera for six weeks, I especially like HD video capability and they all use
