Manufacturer Description
Canon looked to the very first Elph for inspiration when designing the PowerShot
SD1000 Digital Elph, and came up with a quintessential iteration of the icon: slim,
clean-lined and fully flat. Inside, the SD1000 Digital Elph looks only to the future:
7.1 megapixels, a 3x optical zoom and advanced DIGIC III ensure top-quality images,
while focus is fast and sharp and red-eye is automatically corrected. The large
and more colorful LCD screen now has a tough, anti-reflective coating that makes
it as durable as it is beautiful.

Slim, stylish 7.1-megapixel digital Elph with 3x optical zoom Great design
is just part of the PowerShot SD1000 Digital Elph story. Inside is all the power
you need to capture the moments of your life - beautifully.
The 7.1-megapixel CCD records a wealth of detail - enough to let you enlarge and
crop at will. Images are rich and sharp with lifelike depth. The camera's Genuine
Canon 3x optical zoom not only gets you in close, but performs with all the clarity
and brilliance you'd expect from the world's leader in advanced optics technology.
DIGIC III image processor with improved Face Detection and Red-eye Correction
With DIGIC III, you get images of superior quality, the camera functions at top
efficiency and battery life is significantly enhanced. What's more, DIGIC III enables
Canon's newly improved Face Detection Technology and Red-eye Correction to give
you better, more true-to-life people shots. Simply press the Shutter Button halfway
down, and the PowerShot SD1000 Digital Elph automatically pinpoints the faces in
the scene and chooses the ideal focus point. To keep every face looking bright and
natural - without scary red eyes - the camera controls exposure settings and flash,
so every shot is just what you were shooting for.
Face Detection AF/AE finds multiple faces in the frame and sets the most
suitable focus point, when the shutter button is pressed halfway. And an additional
feature, Face Detection FE adjusts the flash, based on a person's face on the screen.
Exposure and flash are controlled to ensure proper illumination of both the faces
and the overall scene, eliminating the common problem of darkened or overexposed
faces.

Red-eye Correction detects and automatically corrects red-eye during playback
for both regular and flash photography. In unusual cases where red-eye is not automatically
detected, it can easily be corrected manually during playback mode from the LCD
screen.
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 fast DIGIC III Image Processor to improve focus speed
and accuracy, as well as exposure and white balance.
Vivid, high-resolution 2.5-inch PureColor LCD The camera's 2.5-inch LCD screen
gives you the big picture, whether you're shooting, reviewing or showing off your
images. This extra-durable, high-resolution screen with tough scratch-resistant
coating on the anti-reflective, PureColor LCD screen offers a crisp, clear picture
to make shooting, playback and using the camera's menu functions especially convenient.
Clear and bright, it also features Night Display for easy viewing in low light.
ISO 1600 and High ISO Auto to reduce image blur and expand low-light shooting capability
The PowerShot SD1000 Digital Elph features new ISO 1600 and High ISO Auto settings
that reduce the effects of camera shake and sharpen subjects in low-light situations,
giving you greater flexibility for shooting.
Five movie modes including 30 fps VGA, Time Lapse and Fast Frame Rate With
a highly flexible movie mode, you can create the movie that's perfect for any application.
Select from VGA (640 x 480 pixels) and QVGA (320 x 240 pixels), with frame rates
of 30 fps and 15 fps for recording up to 1 hour or 4GB. Also choose from Fast Frame
Rate (QVGA; 320 x 240 pixels) recording at 60 fps for up to 1 minute, Compact Movie
Mode (QQVGA; 160 x 120 pixels) recording at 15 fps for up to 3 minutes, and Time
Lapse (640 x 480) recording at 1 or 2 sec. intervals. The PowerShot SD1000 Digital
Elph supports the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed standard, so you'll enjoy the fastest possible
data transfer speeds when using a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed compatible computer.
Print/Share button for easy direct printing and downloading The PowerShot
SD1000 Digital Elph's Print/Share button makes direct printing easier than ever.

or any PictBridge compatible photo printer, press the lighted Print/Share button

photo printers that allow you to print without a computer in one of two ways: plug

USB interface cable, or simply insert a memory card into the supplied adapter. You
can also connect the printer to your computer for more options. Print high-resolution,
borderless images as postcards or 8.5 x 11-inch sheets within minutes.

fun 4 x 6-inch postcards, 4 x 8-inch wide greeting cards or credit-card size prints
in just two easy steps: connect and press print. Control the printer right from
