Canon has unveiled the incredible IXUS 1100 HS – the ultimate touchscreen IXUS with an amazing 28mm wide-angle 12x optical zoom lens which retracts fully into a compact, stainless steel body, making it the slimmest camera in its class (World’s slimmest 12x zoom camera according to Canon research as of 23rd August 2011 and in accordance with CIPA standards). This new flagship IXUS is the latest model to offer Canon’s advanced HS System for beautiful, low-noise images in all conditions. The IXUS 1100 HS also features a new Intelligent IS system to ensure any subject is captured in crisp detail, whether up-close,in low light, or at the fullest extent of the zoom.
Capture the perfect shot with ease
Ensuring even the most distant subject can be viewed with fantastic clarity, the 12x zoom lens features Canon’s precision optics and a 4-stop optical Image Stabilizer - providing outstanding image quality and detail at all focal lengths, from the wide-angle to the extreme telephoto. The new Intelligent IS system also offers greater detail in stills and movies, automatically identifying the shooting situation and selecting the most appropriate image stabilization from seven possible modes (Normal IS, Dynamic IS, Powered IS, Panning IS, Macro IS, Tripod mode, Dynamic Macro IS). For example, the camera will automatically switch to Macro IS with Hybrid IS technology when capturing a close up shot of a flower, or to Powered IS to improve movie stability when filming far subjects with the long zoom.
In addition, the IXUS 1100 HS will also be compatible with the HF-DC2 – a new high power external flash unit that can be used to supplement the on-board flash.
