Product description

Product Information
Superb still images powered by Canon's DIGIC 4 Image processor, evolved Face Detection Technology and a wide-angle 20x optical zoom are only the beginning with the SX1 IS camera. You can also create Full HD movies and see every detail on your HDTV thanks to HDMI output. And it's the first PowerShot equipped with a CMOS sensor.

Expanded Product Features
  • Create full HD movies
    Movies shot in Full HD capture your memories with realism and clarity. A mini-HDMI cable also makes it easy to enjoy HD movies and photos on your HDTV.
  • Equipped with EOS technology
    This is the first PowerShot that integrates the astonishing imaging power EOS technology. It enables the CMOS sensors to convert and amplify signals before they're transferred to the image processor.
  • Powerful zoom, true-to-life imaging
    The precision 28mm wide-angle lens lets you shoot any scene from wide-angle to telephoto - and captures more in every frame.
  • Creative power in your control
    RAW mode lets you shoot images without JPEG compression for clearer images and complete creative control in editing. But you also have the choice of capturing both RAW and JPEG images.

CNET Editors' review

Very Good
  • THE GOOD

    Relatively fast; good HD video; raw file support.

  • THE BAD

    Big; quirky interface; some image artifacts.

  • THE BOTTOM LINE

    A top megazoom option, the Canon PowerShot SX1 IS offers a 20x zoom lens and HD video, which you can't get in a similarly priced dSLR, and delivers more features and slightly better performance and photo quality than the cheaper SX10 IS.
