A Point-and-Shoot Camera That’s Quicker on the Shutter
By jason - up to 2007 (archived) • May 17th, 2007 • Category: Loose Ends, News for Creatives (archives)NYTimes Camera report:
“Some pocket point-and-shoot cameras may skimp on extras, especially when compared with pricier models aimed at professionals, but Canon’s new PowerShot SD850 IS Digital Elph packs in quite a few features.
The new eight-megapixel SD850 IS includes optical image stabilization to help smooth out shaky situations, as well as technology that can keep faces in focus while automatically adjusting the flash and exposure settings for better shots of people.
The SD850 IS, which measures 3.6 inches by 2.2 inches and is about an inch wide, will have a list price of $400 when it goes on sale through major retailers next month. Like other cameras in Canon’s popular PowerShot line, it uses the Digic III image processor, which helps cut down on common point-and-shoot annoyances like shutter lag and poky autofocus. Full specifications can be found at www.powershot.com.”
