PowerShot SD990 IS Features:
Powerful curves house a 14.7-megapixel Digital ELPH
The PowerShot SD990 IS Digital ELPH is all about firsts. It’s the very
first ELPH to offer you the contemporary cool of pure black--making the
boldest camera contours seem even more dramatic. When classic style
reflects your fashion sense, indulge in the satiny glow of silver tone.
Both are the very image of photography at its best, featuring megapixels
that’s the highest resolution among Digital ELPH to capture every detail
of the world around you. There’s never been a better time to think big,
knowing that every enlargement will be sharper and more full-of-life than
you’ve ever experienced before.
3.7x optical zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer
for blur-free shooting
The PowerShot SD990 IS Digital ELPH has 3.7x optical zoom. A zoom opens up
a world of possibilities in your photography, and thanks to innovative
Canon engineering, it’s housed in a camera that’s sized to go everywhere
with you. With many cameras, hand-held shots taken at the long end of the
zoom can be marred by blur. The SD990 IS Digital ELPH incorporates Canon’s
exclusive Optical Image Stabilizer. The technology detects and effectively
cancels camera shake, for clear, sharp images every time.
Optical viewfinder plus large high-quality 2.5-inch PureColor LCD II
The PowerShot SD990 IS Digital ELPH gives you large 2.5-inch LCD screen
for excellent control when framing your shots. Canon’s PureColor LCD II
offers spectacular color, resolution and contrast even when viewed at an
angle. The screen is highly durable and easy to see in any light with a
scratch-resistant, antireflective coating. It also features Night Display
for easy viewing in low light--a perfect feature for gathering friends and
family around to see your images.
New DIGIC 4 Image Processor improves Face Detection, adds Servo AF,
Face Detection Self-Timer and Intelligent Contrast Correction
DIGIC 4 Image Processor
Canon’s proprietary DIGIC Image Processors have long set its cameras apart
from the competition, and the new DIGIC 4 sets the bar even higher.
Faster, more accurate noise reduction delivers better image quality, even
at high ISO speeds.
iSAPS Technology is an entirely original scene-recognition
technology developed for digital cameras by Canon. Using an internal
database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works with the advanced
DIGIC 4 Image Processor to improve focus speed and accuracy, as well as
exposure and white balance.
A new Face Self-Timer automatically
detects an increase in the number of faces and makes the appropriate
adjustments. For instance, to include photographer’s face in a group shot,
there’s no need to rush in. Just put the camera on a stand or tripod, and
specify Face Self-Timer, and the camera will wait for the photographer’s
face to get on-camera before it takes the shot. Motion Detection now
tracks moving subjects in a much larger range, and the new Servo AF
retains focus on a moving subject after the shutter button is pressed
halfway -- allowing you to wait for the perfect shot without refocusing.
Also, Face Detection and Motion Detection are markedly improved.
Intelligent Contrast Correction DIGIC 4 also makes possible the new
i-Contrast (Intelligent Contrast Correction) system, which controls the
compensation level in pixel units to brighten dark areas while leaving
bright areas unchanged for better images where the main subject is dark,
and more natural transition. The PowerShot SD990 IS Digital ELPH can even
use i-Contrast in playback mode to adjust images that were shot without
the setting activated.
Red-eye Correction provides three options for removing red-eye from
subjects in flash pictures.
1) The Red-eye Correction during shooting actually identifies and corrects
red-eye in human subjects as pictures are taken.
2) The SD990 IS Digital ELPH can be set to automatically detect and
correct red-eye during image playback.
3) You can manually locate any red eyes in a scene during image playback
on the LCD screen, and command the camera to remove them.
Life doesn’t give you second chances to capture special times. That’s why
the SD990 IS Digital ELPH features ISO 1600 and High ISO Auto settings
that reduce the effects of camera shake and sharpen subjects in low-light
situations, giving you greater shooting flexibility. ISO can be expanded
to 3200 when you select ISO 3200 Special Scene mode.
A Wide Range of Shooting Modes to Capture Anything
When you don’t want to control the shots, the PowerShot SD990 IS Digital
ELPH offers the satisfying option of Quick shooting mode. The camera’s LCD
screen turns off and the viewfinder displays the scene while framing. When
the moment you want to shoot the focused moving subject comes along, this
feature makes lag time shortest to capture the subject quickest. If the
camera focuses on faces, the faces are also detected in the frame.
With 21 Shooting Modes including 16 Special Scene Modes, you’re ready for
whatever shot comes your way.
Print/Share Button for easy direct printing and downloading
The PowerShot SD990 IS Digital ELPH's Print/Share button makes direct
printing easier than ever. Simply connect the SD990 IS Digital ELPH to a
Canon PIXMA Photo Printer or SELPHY Compact Photo Printer or any
PictBridge compatible photo printer, press the lighted Print/Share button
and print! Also use the Print/Share button to transfer images to a
computer (Windows and Macintosh).
Print your own ID photos in up to 28 different sizes or use the Movie
Print function to output multiple stills from a recorded movie on a single
sheet with a Canon SELPHY Compact Photo Printer.
