Canon PowerShot SD4500IS Highlights 10x optical zoom in a slim, stylish camera body The PowerShot SD4500 IS Digital ELPH camera is the first ELPH equipped with a 10x optical zoom--an amazing feat of engineering for a camera this slim and light.

For natural candids of people, pets and wildlife there's no substitute, while stadium games, concerts and other big events come to life with a lens that puts you right in the middle of the action. Best of all? Even at the far end of the zoom your shots are clear and steady, thanks to Canon's highly effective Optical Image Stabilizer. Canon's HS System for improved low light performance and better image quality The Canon HS System takes the frustration out of low light shooting. The system delivers clear, blur-free shots with all the ambiance intact, and frees you from the sometimes unwanted effects of using the flash. Beautiful low light shots 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 PowerShot. 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.

High-Speed Burst mode for capturing sports and action shots High-Speed Burst is exactly what you need when you're trying to capture the best possible shot within a moment of fast-moving action. In High-Speed Burst mode, the camera automatically shoots continuously at high speed (approx. 8.8fps)* 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 shots 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. Features like Best Image Selection and Handheld Night Scene give you greater flexibility The PowerShot SD4500 IS Digital ELPH camera has a number of cool new features to improve performance and image quality. Best Image Selection works in conjunction with the camera's continuous shooting function. The camera shoots 5 successive images, then analyzes movement and facial expressions to pick the best shot. By saving only the best shot, the feature preserves space on your memory card so you do not have to check through several similar images and erase. Handheld Night Scene helps you capture beautiful night shots without a tripod and without the blur and noise typical in nighttime shooting. The feature uses optical image stabilization combined with electronic image composition. Several shots are taken in succession and then combined into one shot, effectively reducing camera shake and producing beautifully clear, dramatic nighttime images.

A review of the amateur rank No. 2 Mary-Kate, I can not write a thorough review of this camera, because I simply do not have the knowledge or cameras or photography. But I can tell you what I as a beginner about how and why I did. This is the second Canon digital camera I've owned. Last year I bought the Canon PowerShot SX120IS 10MP Digital Camera with 10x optical zoom, images and 3-inch LCD (and wrote a comment on this Amazon with the first sentence of the review, together with some other bits like). I have a fair amount of research on the brands and models before you buy this camera and at the end of love. It was very easy to use and meets all my needs relatively simple - until the time that I have fallen in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, when I returned from Vancouver implementation Iceland a few weeks. (Do not ask.) ) As I had been so happy with this camera was my first impulse to take the same model as a replacement, but to know how fast technology seems to change, I decided to see new models before you buy. That's when I met SD4500IS. Admittedly, I was as seduced by its design - all sleek and shiny, lying there tempt me (and I for my part, I love the color). But I knew it would not be happy with it, depending on the SX120IS, I met my criteria, namely: 1. Would be very easy to use. And I mean simple for me - the fan above. 2nd You should take decent pictures, even for informal operators with little experience (again, it would be me). 3rd You need a fast shutter speed, as the grandchildren and the dogs can move very, very quickly. 4th It should fit in the bag. (The new portfolio, zippered I expect things to fall pevent in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, or any other body of water, for that matter.) 5. Most importantly, have optical image Canon's optical Image Stabilizer Canon stabilization is a feature I discovered in my quest for cameras last year and who quickly became my new best friend. I have a tremor disorder that causes large shakes in my hands. It does not bother me, and not always in the vicinity of influence to work, but it can do to make a steady -, say a camera - almost impossible. As you might guess, that the results of the shaking when taking pictures is usually lousy pictures. The optical image is like a miracle for me. With this I can take close-up, which is beautifully clear - not every time, of course, but most times. And with a fast shutter speed, image stabilization really helps me a couple of good shots - even action photos - of my grandchildren and my dog. I love this job and would never consider buying another camera without it. (Note: I sent a photo to the section image of the client for this camera, making a picture of a flower shooting star - Dodecatheon - I think it shows the detail that I was able to capture with Optical Image Stabilizer) I I had a great salesman, Jeremy, who did not mind taking me for a while. (Fortunately for me, speaking English, Techy beyond the camera.) Collected intelligence in the way I was looking forward to the SD4500IS, Jeremy was able to convince me that I could meet my needs, just as he had SX120IS. As the SX120IS is really easy to use (even for me, I know! I was surprised too!) And the shutter speed is fast enough and the image stabilizer. It fits in my purse. Jeremy told me that if I was happy with the pictures I was doing with the SX120IS, would be equally or more satisfied with the results obtained with the SD4500IS. And now that I had a chance to use it, I can confirm that he was right - I get shot, which I find very yes! The following functions SC4500IS also taken into consideration in my decision to buy it: 1 HD video capability. I've only used the video mode a.
