Detailed Features
Creative Shot
Originality is effortless with Creative Shot. Simply take a shot and the camera will analyse the scene then automatically generate five creative images plus the original unaltered photo - capturing the same subject in a variety of artistic and surprising ways.
Unique design
The unique symmetrical, metal-bodied design is strikingly different with an ultra-modern minimalist style - small enough to keep in your pocket and stylish enough to take anywhere.
8x zoom, 28mm wide lens; Intelligent IS
Use the 8x optical zoom to get closer, or closer still with 16x ZoomPlus, and fit more in the frame with 28mm wide-angle. Intelligent IS automatically combats camera shake for sharp, detailed results every time.
HS System: 12.1 Megapixel CMOS and DIGIC 5
HS System excels in low light allowing you to capture the real atmosphere of the moment without flash or a tripod. Advanced DIGIC 5 processing and a high-sensitivity 12.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor give excellent image quality in all situations.
Wi-Fi; GPS via mobile
Wi-Fi* lets you connect easily with home wireless networks, compatible printers and PCs, as well as portable devices like smartphones and tablets, for fast, convenient, online image sharing. Use your smartphone’s GPS to keep track of shooting locations then synchronise it with your camera over Wi-Fi to add this information to your images.
Mobile Device Connect Button
The Mobile Device Connect button simplifies the Wi-Fi connection to a smartphone or tablet - ideal for frequent image sharing.
Any Way Up operation; Tilt-up touch screen
You can use the camera any way up thanks to the dual direction zoom and shoot lens rings incorporating both zoom and shutter controls. A tilt-up 7.1 cm (2.8”) capacitive touch screen allows easy shooting from unusual or difficult angles and simple, intuitive touch operation.
