Optical Image Stabilizer technology for steady, long zoom
shooting Life doesn’t give you second chances to capture special
times. That’s why the elegant Power SD850 IS Digital Elph is
equipped with Canon’s accled Optical Image Stabilizer
Technology that automatically detects and corrects camera shake
-- one of the leading causes of fuzzy or blurred s. So now
even when you’re zooming in tight you can get the steady, crisp,
brilliant images you’ll be proud to shoot and share. And Canon’s
Optical Image Stabilizer Technology is so convenient to use. Just
turn it on, it functions perfectly with or without a flash.
DIGIC III Image Processor with improved Face Detection
Technology 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
s. Simply press the Shutter Button halfway down, and the
Power SD850 IS Digital Elph automatically pinpoints the faces
in the scene and chooses the ideal focus point. To keep every
face looking bright and natural -- without y red eyes -- the
camera controls exposure settings and flash, so every is
just what you were shooting for.
Find multiple faces with Canon's improved Face Detection
technology DIGIC III features Face Detection AF/AE, which finds
multiple faces in the frame and sets the most suitable focus
point, when the shutter button is pressed halfway. And an
additional new 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.
iSAPS technology is an entirely original scene-re
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.

2.5-inch LCD screen gives you the big picture, whether you’re
