From the Manufacturer
The PowerShot SD900 features a 10-million-pixel CCD sensor. This high-resolution imager ensures every picture will have excellent detail, even when printed large or cropped.

DIGIC III Image Processor
The brand new DIGIC III Imaging Processor developed exclusively by Canon plays an integral role in producing superior images, it speeds up in-camera operations, and improves image quality and functionality. It also maximizes battery consumption for solid performance.

Face Detection
The use of the new DIGIC III processor includes the new face priority function for detecting human faces in a scene for both autofocus and autoexposure. This optimizes both focus and exposure of an image for your subject's face.

High ISO Sensitivity
ISO range up to ISO 1600 for less blur in low light while hand-holding. With the Image Stabilized lens, and exclusive DIGIC II Image Processor, images shot at higher ISO speeds are sharp, and noise is minimal.

2.5-Inch High-Resolution LCD Monitor
Enjoy composing and reviewing images with the big 2.5-inch LCD monitor. With this size LCD screen with 230,000 pixels (twice the resolution of its predecessor), it is quite easy to navigate through the menu and utilize the direct printing features as well.

Enhanced Digital Zoom
The SD900 features two new ways to maximize digital zoom performance: Safety Zoom and Digital Teleconverter. With Safety Zoom enabled the lens will go beyond its optical limit while maintaining acceptable image quality; with lower resolutions additional digital zoom becomes available. The Digital Teleconverter emulates the use of a 1.4x and 2.3x teleconversion lens with impressive image quality.

3x Optical Zoom
As found in previous Digital Elph cameras, the SD900 utilizes a 3x optical zoom lens. This zoom range has proven to be a perfect combination of compact size and incredible usability (35mm equivalent: 37-111). Along with its great zoom range, the SD900's lens is equipped with two aspherical lens elements to ensure high image quality.

Waterproof Case
Expand creative photo opportunities with the waterproof case WP-DC7. Take up to 130 feet underwater and still utilize all of the controls the camera has to offer. (This case is not included. It must be purchased separately.)
