Canon Powershot SD1100 IS Review

The thin, ultra compact Canon Power Shot A SD1100 boasts 8.3 mega-pixels and image stabilizer (IS) technology. Canon SD1100 continues not only as a camera, but as a fashion accessory.

The device is available in five colors: "Rhythm & Blue, " "Swing money, " "Rose Melody, " "Brown Czech, "And " Golden Tone "(I thank you for Canon Send me " Rose Melody ").

While the diversity of patterns of colors, a tie for young crowds, the camera also comes with an elegant technique improved features such as facial recognition technology, detection movement of technology, and a host of shooting modes useful. All this represents a little over $ 200.

Face Detection Technology: better all Smiles
The camera's Integrated Face detection technology is designed to recognize faces people�'s in your photos and s' adapt to improving the balance of white color of the skin. It also has an option to erase the traces of subject� your face, so you can not lose when they move into the frame. If you use this feature, I found it difficult to block someone� on the face, weren�'t if she smiles. I also noticed that this function didn�'t work as well, when there is a lot of backlighting, or if I wasn�'t directly in front of my subject. I think that with the help of self-focus is to support a range greater than the method of determining the correct focal length.

Macro-mode: Up Close and Personal
I was very impressed with the Canon SD1100 's macro-focus mode with the user, which is very detailed, photos or small-Up around themes. I have the photos below over the same distance (two inches) of my shoe. See the difference shoe�'s, in detail, if the macro mode, compared to blur, if not. The macro function is easy to access and use, it 'sa simple as changing patterns of the camera.

What surprises me most in SD1100, the quality of the camera 's digital zoom. In the past, I firmly oppose the use of zoom digital cameras, because it is "Fake Zoom, " a digitally manipulated blow-up l & # 39; image, breaks the resolution of the photo and results, as a general rule, a loss of quality. This small miracle of the digital camera, you can zoom up to 12 times with minimal loss of resolution. Indeed, the largest zoom, pictures of this device prints well dimensions up to 20 x 30 cm. This camera has my opinion on the use of digital zoom in new cameras.
