Product Description:
Whether the action is fast or slow, close up or far away, you'll always
get the shot you want with the PowerShot SX10 IS. This camera puts you
on the cutting edge of advanced technology, with an incredibly powerful
20x optical zoom, 10-megapixel resolution, and DIGIC 4 image processor
for high-performance face and motion detection. The PowerShot SX10 IS
is equipped with a 20x optical zoom lens with a focal length of
5.0-100mm that allows you to shoot any scene from wide-angle to
telephoto. The camera uses a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) for high-speed,
quiet, energy-efficient lens movement with precise control. Focal
length is conveniently indicated on the lens barrel. The lens is
optimized to fully exploit its zoom length and wide shooting angle in
concert with the camera's high 10.0-megapixel resolution. UD glass
effectively suppresses chromatic aberration, while enhanced negative
refractive power ensures that distortion at the wide-angle is also
corrected. Further aberration is controlled with the inclusion of a
double-sided aspherical glass-molded lens and ultra-high refraction
index lens. The SX10 IS is equipped with Canon's acclaimed optical
image stabilizer technology that automatically detects and corrects
camera shake - one of the leading causes of fuzzy or blurred shots.
Even when zoomed in, you can get the steady, crisp, brilliant images
you'll be proud to shoot and share. And Canon's optical image
stabilizer technology is convenient to use. It functions perfectly with
or without a flash.
