PowerShot Pro1 gives you the creative performance of a high-end SLR camera with the digital capability and ease of use inherent to the PowerShot line. The camera's 8 Megapixel CCD captures life to the extent that even prints of 8 x 10 or larger are highly detailed and gorgeously colored.

Three light-metering modes deliver precise exposure: evaluative metering, center-weighted average metering and spot metering, which lets you measure exposure at the chosen AF point or the center of the frame for an exceptional level of control. And the camera's innovative FlexiZone AF/AE system lets you move the AF point around the frame to focus on off-center subjects without reframing the shot, and connects the AF point to the exposure system when the camera is in spot metering mode.

Canon's exclusive DIGIC Imaging Processor revolutionizes how you shoot digital by allowing the camera to process images faster and improving the accuracy of the autofocus. DIGIC also reduces the effects on noise in your images.

The PowerShot Pro1 features a standard macro function that allows you to shoot clearly at just 4 from your subject. It also incorporates a new Super Macro Mode that takes you in even closer. Position your subject as little as 1/2 from the tip of the lens and capture a full 8 megapixels of astonishingly close detail.

Catch a shot at any angle! This camera features a swiveling 2.0-inch Vari-angle LCD monitor with 235,000 pixels, the highest resolution in its class.

High-quality movie clips with audio capture all the action. The PowerShot Pro1 offers several resolution choices: high-resolution VGA (up to 30 sec.), or long-play QVGA and QQVGA (up to 3 minutes). Delete unwanted scenes during playback.
