Two of the most popular models in the PowerShot SD series of cameras have been updated (already). The changes are fairly minor, with the larger LCD display being the biggest new feature.
PRESS RELEASE:
CANON’S NEW POWERSHOT SD550, SD450 AND SD30 DIGITAL ELPH CAMERAS FEATURE BIGGER LCD SCREENS AND FASHION-FOCUSED DESIGNS
LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., Aug. 22, 2005 –Canon continues to address and appeal to the style conscious consumer with the addition of three new design-oriented digital cameras. The 7.1 and 5.0 megapixel PowerShot SD550 and SD450 Digital ELPH models pump up the viewing screen, while maintaining their petite packages. Combining function with fashion, the stylish new 5.0 megapixel PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH series focuses on fall colors and optical zoom lenses.
“Whether on vacation with the family or just enjoying a day at the beach, Canon offers end-to-end photo solutions from capture to output in the Digital ELPH series and throughout the PowerShot camera line,” said Yukiaki Hashimoto, senior vice president and general manager of the Consumer Imaging Group at Canon U.S.A., Inc. “The new cameras offer a comfortable, compact, and ergonomic design while maintaining the sophistication and function of their predecessors; they are must-have accessories this fall.”
Bigger Than Ever… In The Same Petite Package
Bigger but still petite is Canon’s mantra with the introduction of the 7.1 Megapixel PowerShot SD550 Digital ELPH and 5.0 Megapixel PowerShot SD450 Digital ELPH cameras, which join Canon’s line-up between the SD500 and SD400 models which will continue to be available. The new PowerShot SD550 and 450 Digital ELPH cameras offer consumers a big 2.5-inch LCD screen, while retaining Canon’s famed functionality and optical viewfinder. Additionally, the new cameras feature a new UI display designed to capitalize on the larger screen size.
“The PowerShot SD550 and SD450 Digital ELPH cameras have essentially the same body sizes and specifications as the PowerShot SD500 and SD400 Digital ELPHs, but offer consumers a wider range of options when choosing the right camera for their lifestyle,” said Hashimoto. “By providing users with the ability to choose, Canon will always have something that fits each user’s individual tastes. Furthermore, by keeping the optical viewfinder, we still provide the user the ability to use these cameras in all types of lighting conditions.”
Additional features on the new SD550 and SD450 Digital ELPH models include 3.0x optical zoom lenses, four new scene modes (Foliage, Snow, Beach and Fireworks), compositional grid lines, 30 fps VGA/60 fps QVGA movie recording with sound, movie playback at varying speeds, slide show transition effects, menu shortcuts and many more.
“Strike a Pose”
Metallics are back! Designed with the fashion conscious trendsetter in mind, the PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH camera comes in four new attractive colors designed to coordinate with other fashion accessories for a night on the town. Replacing Canon’s previous line of fashion-focused cameras, the PowerShot SD20 Digital ELPH series, the new models keep in line with fall 2005 fashion’s “must have colors” for the season. The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras will be available in the metallic finishes of Tuxedo Black, Rockstar Red, Glamour Gold and Vivacious Violet. These cameras also come with color coordinated cases for each camera color.
Fashion meets Function Once Again…
The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras incorporate a great measure of functional beauty and sense of lightness, thanks to the adoption of the latest design techniques and new color variations. The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras incorporate a full range of high-performance features, including a 5.0 Megapixel CCD, a retractable 2.4x optical zoom lens (35mm film equivalent: 38-90mm) and 4.0x digital zoom. The cameras also feature Canon’s exclusive DIGIC II image processor, Hi-Speed USB 2.0 connectivity, and an easy-to-read 1.8-inch LCD screen, which is larger than their predecessors.
The PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH cameras feature an impressive 16 shooting modes, including Auto, Camera M (manual), Macro, Portrait, Landscape, Night Snapshot, My Colors, seven Special Scene modes (Kids and Pets, Indoor, Foliage, Snow, Beach, Fireworks and Underwater), Stitch Assist and Movie. While in movie mode, the PowerShot SD30 Digital ELPH offers three movie modes: Standard, My Colors and Compact.
