Canon Powershot A470 Digital Camera


The successor to last year's successful entry level PowerShot A460 camera, the new 7.1 megapixel A470 model has undergone a striking external makeover, matched dramatically by a number of key internal enhancements and advancements. This camera has features including a 7.1 Megapixel, 1/2.5-inch CCD, DIGIC III Image Processor, 3.4x optical zoom lens and 2.5-inch LCD monitor. It uses two AA batteries to shoot up to approx. 150 images (based on the CIPA standard when the LCD monitor is on), and SD memory cards, SDHC memory cards, MultiMediaCards, MMCplus cards and HC MMCplus cards for the recording media. Images are utilized with a direct print compatible printer, computer and TV via USB. The dimensions (excluding protrusions) of the main body are 104.8 x 55.1 x 40.7 mm (4.1 x 2.2 x 1.6 in.) and the weight is approximately 165 g (5.8 oz.).

On the feature side, Motion Detection Technology that detects and takes brightness and movement of subjects into account to maintain image quality was newly added. More advanced Face Detection Technology adjusts the white balance as well as the Face Detection AF/AE/FE to enable more true-to-life facial expressions. Also, Print List that makes photo printing more comfortable can be easily made immediately after shooting or playing back an image.
