This is the Digital ELPH that's raising the bar. There's everything you'd
expect from a camera of this caliber: A 7.1 megapixel CCD to render images in
magnificent detail and a DIGIC III Image Processor for stellar quality and fast
operation. Yet what sets the SD800 IS Digital ELPH apart is its Wide-angle 3.8x
optical zoom with Image Stabilizer technology for rock steady zooms. The Canon
SD800 IS Digital ELPH, it's the Digital ELPH that's a step ahead.
7.1 Megapixel Digital ELPH with elegant stainless steel Perpetual Curve
design
The PowerShot SD800 IS features a high resolution 7.1 Megapixel CCD to give you
images of uncompromising texture and detail. With it, you'll capture what others
miss - the delicate strands of a baby's hair, the intricate petals of a wild
flower. Plus the camera is as beautiful to hold as the images it takes. The
Perpetual Curve design has the look of fine sculpture. Yet it's practical, too.
Its unique form is engineered for the shape of your hand.
Wide-angle 28-105mm (35mm equivalent) 3.8x Optical Zoom with Optical Image
Stabilizer Technology for steady, long zoom shooting
Engineered with Canon's sophisticated wide-angle 3.8x zoom lens with
integrated Image Stabilizer technology, the SD800 IS Digital ELPH gives you the
"shake-free" performance that makes your pictures sharp and clear. No matter how
close you zoom in, the SD800 IS Digital ELPH keeps everything stable. All you
have to think about is your subject.
DIGIC III Image Processor with Face Detection Technology for superior
image quality, fast operation and low power consumption
The DIGIC III Image Processor is the latest advancement to Canon's
proprietary DIGIC technology, delivering superior image quality,
ultra-responsive performance and extended battery life. DIGIC III provides a
speedier interface for the SD800 IS Digital ELPH's SD memory card as well as
higher definition for its LCD monitor.
DIGIC III also empowers new Face Detection AF/AE, which finds all the faces
in the frame and sets the most suitable focus point, when the shutter button is
depressed half-way. 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.
iSAPS Technology is an entirely original scene-recognition 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.
Large 2.5-inch LCD monitor with wide viewing angle for easier on-camera
viewing

and using the camera's menu functions especially convenient. The clear and
bright LCD also features Night Display for easy viewing in low light.
ISO 1600 to reduce image blur and expand low-light shooting capability

settings that reduce the effects of camera shake and sharpen subjects in
low-light situations, giving you greater flexibility for shooting.
