Description:
Sleek New Design
The S70 model's stylish dark metallic and black
two-tone body with elegant chrome accents has a smooth-sliding lens cover that
acts as an on-off switch. A redesigned control layout on the rear of the camera
replaces the multi-controller found on previous S-series models with separate
controls for zooming and menu selection, making the S70 camera easier to use.
Canon has also upgraded the LCD monitor with a new animated menu navigation
system that makes it easier to select custom settings and other adjustments.
In order to increase the amount of photographs users can capture, Canon
developed a new lithium-ion battery pack, the NB-2LH model, which delivers
approximately 26% higher capacity than the previous NB-2L.
Enhanced
Features
The PowerShot S70 digital camera sports a variety of superior
features that enhance its usability and make it stand out from the crowd.
Notably, the camera's macro function allows photographers to shoot a subject
from as close as 1.6 inches and the camera's optional tele-converter extends the
focal length to 200mm.
Additional noteworthy enhancements of the
PowerShot S70 digital camera include:
- Faster start-up
- Faster continuous shooting at 2.0 frames per second;
- 13 shooting modes including enhanced VGA Movie Mode;
- RAW+JPEG recording with user-selectable JPEG resolution
- Optional teleconverter, wireless controller and underwater housing
accessories.
- Print/Share Button for easy direct printing and
downloads.
Underwater Possibilities
For year-round
vacations, Canon's new PowerShot S70 digital camera is compatible with a new
optional underwater housing, the WP-DC40. Designed for capturing fabulous
underwater photos while snorkeling, in the pool, or just to protect the camera
while boating or on the beach, the housing is available for an estimated street
price of $240*. For the underwater enthusiast, Canon will offer a new waterproof
case weight set (WW-DC1) that is compatible with all of its underwater housings.
Available in packs of four, these weights allow the camera to "stay put" for
steady underwater photography.
To capture the best underwater shots, the
PowerShot S70 digital camera includes a new "underwater" preset for the white
balance. This feature automatically sets the camera to the correct white balance
for underwater shooting so photographers do not have to worry about the
difficulty of operating manually.
The DIGIC" Difference
Canon
developed the proprietary DIGIC (Digital Imaging Integrated Circuit) Image
Processor specifically for use with its line of digital cameras. The technology
combines the jobs of image processing and camera function control into one chip.
Because it was specifically designed for use in digital cameras, it is also
capable of handling JPEG compression/expansion; memory card control; LCD/Video
control and processing; gain control (control of CCD signal amplification); Auto
Exposure; Auto Focus; Auto White Balance control and most other functions of the
camera. The result is a product that offers faster and more powerful auto focus
than ever before, faster image processing, better image quality and longer
battery life.
Quick and Easy Photo Printing
When it comes to
printing, consumers want it done quickly and easily. The PowerShot S70 digital
camera offers a range of new printing features including Canon's Print/Share
button, ID Photo Print, and Movie Print.** The Print/Share button has a blue
light indicator, which signals the user when printing can begin, just by
pressing the button. This feature is operational when the camera is connected to
a Canon Compact Photo Printer, Canon Direct Photo Printer or PictBridge
compliant printer and set to Playback mode. When connected to a Compact Photo
Printer, users can crop the recorded image to the appropriate size prior to
printing ID photo size prints. The camera offers 28 different sizes providing ID
photo dimensions for use in countries around the world. The Movie Print feature
is also used when the camera is connected to a Compact Photo Printer. It prints
a series of still images from a recorded movie onto a single sheet in the form
of an index print.
The PowerShot S70 digital camera also offers a Direct
Transfer feature, which allows users to instantly transfer images - one at a
time or all at once - from the camera to a Windows computer using a USB
connection.
