Canon digital camera innovations have always been at the forefront
of photographic innovations and their compact digital cameras
package a variety of functions into a deceptively small Canon
digital camera body. These are particularly attractive to a wide
range of users because of their light weight, ease of use, high
image quality and high functionality. Canon digital camera experts
are highly experienced in camera manufacturer, leading-edge optical
technology, ultra high-precision mounting technology, electronic
device technology and color management technology amongst others.
All of this experience and expertise is combined to produce the
Canon digital camera PowerShot series and the PowerShot DIGITAL
ELPH/DIGITAL IXUS series.
Throughout their continuing research, the Canon digital camera
development team has collected a large amount of photographic
data and also made broad statistical analyses of the frequency
involved in taking photographs. This data led to the creation
of the Canon digital camera Photographic Space which is a graphical
database of information relating to the relationship between
surrounding brightness and distance between a Canon digital camera
and the subject relative to the focal length and position of
the zoom lens when pictures are taken.
The Canon digital camera Photographic Space led to the development
of a new scene-recognition technology called "iSAPS"
(intelligent Scene Analysis based on Photographic Space) Technology.
Canon digital camera iSAPS Technology analyses the scene to be
photographed and makes optimal adjustments of a number of key
functions, including auto-focus, before the shutter is pressed.
The Canon digital camera iSAPS Technology closely estimates
the camera-to-subject distance based on the lens focal length,
zoom position and surrounding brightness which guarantees the
most accurate exposure and white balance settings for the overall
conditions.
At the high end of the Canon digital camera range are their
single-lens reflex, or SLR, cameras. The Canon digital camera
company has created ultra-high-precision imaging elements and
high-performance digital imaging engines so that their digital
SLR cameras possess the same ease of operation as their 35mm
film counterparts but produce exceptionally high-quality images.
The Canon digital camera imaging engine, or DIGIC II, creates
image data from signals output from a CMOS, or complementary
metal oxide semiconductor, sensor. The CMOS sensor is really
the brain of any digital camera. Canon developed the Canon digital
camera DIGIC II high-performance imaging engine directly due
to the increasingly high resolution CMOS sensors. With the help
of a high-capacity DDRS DRAM (double data rate SDRAM) as the
buffer memory, the Canon digital camera DIGIC II processes high-resolution
images at ultra-high speeds.
