Product Description Taking good pictures doesn't have to be difficult. The new Canon Digital IXUS 300 goes where no digital camera has gone before. This camera has greater zoom power, more life-like color reproduction, movie clip recording, and even its own little printer. You'll still find the ease of operation, superior features, and unique quality that you trust with Digital IXUS 300. This is more than a camera; it's a revolution in photography.The stainless steel-bodied Digital IXUS 300 defines luxury and sophistication. Its ultra-compact design that is truly a work of art employs the latest optical technology. In fact, it is the world's smallest digital camera with a retractable, optical 3x zoom lens. The more powerful light guide flash, the new digital signal processing IC/CPU, and LCD monitor run more efficiently, requiring only a compact Li-Ion battery. This all boils down to a camera that's stronger, smarter, faster, yet more compact. You want your pictures to look their best, right? Well, quality pays. Canon technology gives IXUS 300 a 2.11-megapixel CCD, able to record a 1600x1200 pixel image. That's the resolution you need for a high-quality 8"x10" (20cm x 25cm) print. A new design for the ultra-compact and fully retractable zoom lens offers high resolution and low distortion. Used with the IC processing signal, the digital zoom smoothly engages to fill your frame with detailed, clear images up to the equivalent of a 265mm lens for 35mm format cameras. There's a macro mode, too; so, take pictures from far and wide, tight and close. Connect the cable to the optional Canon CP-10 Photo printer, put IXUS 300 into direct print mode, and you're there. With a resolution of 300x300 dpi, you'll get brilliant credit card-sized prints. Pick your preferred print settings, and you'll have the prints in mere seconds. With the new digital signal processing IC working in conjunction with the primary color filter, Digital IXUS 300 ensures that each photo shows its true colors, in every shooting situation. Canon advances in technology provide improvements governing optimum exposure, resolution, and color temperatures to virtually guarantee accuracy with the AE control system and various white balance settings. Different situations demand their own needs. IXUS 300 offers nine different image quality combinations with three pixel modes and three compression ratios. For best results, select superfine mode to lower the compression ratio and hold onto image detail sufficient for business purposes. Sometimes you want more than one shot. Record a movie clip to see every frame of that game-winning goal or basket. IXUS 300 can record movie at 20 frames per second in three pixel modes, for up to 30 seconds, maximum. They even have sound, and are saved as AVI files for you to keep. Play it back on your LCD monitor, your TV or your computer.
