PowerShot Advances to a New Level of Performance PowerShot Pro1 is not only the flagship of the PowerShot line, but a decisive leader in the compact digital camera class. The camera has an extraordinary 8 Megapixels of imaging power, a superb Canon L-series 7x zoom lens, and a host of professional-level capabilities. Yet with all its advanced technology, the Pro1 retains the ease of use that PowerShot cameras are famous for. Unsurpassed Image Quality Designed to create professional-level finished work, the PowerShot Pro1 is equipped with the most powerful, advanced lens in the PowerShot line. In fact, the Pro1's debut marks the first time a fluorite lens has been used in a PowerShot digital camera. The fluorite lens (a direct result of Canon's decades-long pursuit of the ideal lens) gives clear, sharp image delineation which other optical glass cannot match. Paired with UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) glass, the lens achieves the absolute minimum in chromatic aberration. An Aspherical lens is also incorporated. Precision-manufactured to within 0. 1 microns via a software program Canon developed, it corrects spherical aberrations and curvilinear distortion while keeping the zoom lens compact. The 7x zoom lens' focal length ranges from the wide-angle 28mm to the telephoto 200mm level (in 35mm film equivalent) to handle everything from snapshots, landscapes, portraits and sports scenes with ease. The zoom is powered with an Ultrasonic Motor for fast, silent performance. In addition, Canon technology allows the lens to achieve exceptionally large maximum aperture of f/2. 4 to f/3. 5, with the highest brightness in its class for the 28mm end of the zoom range. A digital zoom brings total zooming all the way up to 22x (resolution at the maximum digital zoom factor is 1024 x 768). The camera's resolution places it solidly at the top of the compact digital camera class: an extraordinary 8 million pixels, for a 3264 x 2448 resolution that will give your photography an astonishing level of clarity and depth. Canon's exclusive DiG!C Imaging Processor enhances resolution even further, with superior image quality, super-fast processing and highly responsive performance. iSAPS Technology instantly optimizes the camera's automatic focus, exposure and white balance systems to suit any photographic situation, while primary color filters ensure true, luminous color.
