The design of the new Canon PowerShot SD780IS is simple, elegant and pleasing to the eye.
At a thickness of only 0.
7 inches, you barely feel it in your pockets.
The slim size is ideal for enthusiastic non-professional photographers.
12.
1MP is good enough to give you outstanding images with good clarity and detail.
A 3x optical zoom is a plus point for taking images at a further distance.
Its small size and quality image-taking capabilities make it the perfect camera for anybody on the go.
The Canon PowerShot SD780IS has a 2.
5-inch LCD screen.
Though it's smaller than the standard 3-inches, the quality of the screen ensures that color, clarity and viewing pleasure are never compromised.
The navigation buttons on the camera are straightforward and easy to use.
Other features include the ability to capture moving images, smart auto mode, face detection enabled by the proprietary DIGIC IV processor and blink detection.
With an array of functions for a relatively small but somewhat powerful camera, it's no wonder this camera and the Powershot line have long had its own appeal.
The Canon PowerShot SD780IS also records videos and in HD (1280 x 720) as well.
With HDMI output built-in to the camera, you can watch HD video recordings straight from an HDTV, though sound quality is not impressive, which is to be expected from a camera recording.
However, the SD780IS comes with an affordable price tag, making it the perfect camera for casual photographers who want to take high quality pictures and acquaint themselves with HD video.
