PowerShot SD300
(4.0 MegaPixel Digital Camera)


From its ultra-thin design to its high resolution, high performance features; the PowerShot SD300 Digital ELPH is like no other digital camera. Compact and easy to use, its softly flowing metal body is richly appointed with an elegant finish. It's a camera as beautiful as the pictures it creates.
Overview

Savour the ultra-slim design, the sophisticated features
Super fast, super compact, and super fun to use - the 4.0 Megapixel SD300 Digital ELPH presents an easy and elegant way to take outstanding digital photos. Thin is in, and by utilizing Canon's UA lens technology this ELPH measures just under 21mm wide (excluding protrusions). In fact, UA lens technology has allowed the SD300 to house 3x optical zoom lenses. The super fast DIGIC II Image Processor makes its compact camera debut in the SD300, and the result is exceptional speed and higher image quality. DIGIC II significantly improves start-up time and autofocus speed so you won't miss a shot. It also enhances all facets of image quality from suppressing noise to improving white balance, plus it allows you to record in movie mode at an incredible 60 frames per second (QVGA). The SD300 has a wide variety of shooting modes that make taking incredible images effortless, and the Print/Share button simplifies printing and downloading images. You can even print on the spot as the SD300 connects directly to any Canon Direct Print, Bubble Jet Direct or PictBridge compatible photo printer.
