Looking for a digital camera with a powerful zoom facility? Or how about a camcorder with stereo sound and image stabilization?
Well, you don't actually have to decide. Canon has already done that on your behalf. You can have both in one stylish body: the Canon PowerShot S2...
This camera's predecessor was one of the most popular in it's class, and the new model will probably be no exception - especially if you take a closer look at the new features included.
The PowerShot S2 hasn't merely increased its sensor pixels from 3.2 million to 5 million - which is at any rate about the minimum you'd expect from this camera. It has also increased its very popular 10X optical zoom to a 12X version - all the while retaining its very effective optical image stabilization.
Many of the new features are linked to the excellent movie recording capabilities. It now has stereo sound recording, along with a special wind noise reduction facility for those outdoor recordings - not to mention selectable sound quality and microphone level settings.
This Canon digital camera also has a new "Night Display" feature that brightens the (now larger) LCD and EVF in low light situations. And of course the LCD can still rotate for those self portraits or when you need to shoot over the heads of people in front of you!
The new PowerShot S2 is now powered by the speedy DIGIC II processor - which can also be found in Canon's pro-series D-SLR cameras! The result is that the PowerShot S2 has a very responsive 2.4 fps shooting capability.
On the movie side it probably doesn't get much better for a digital camera! You can use the zoom function while filming (and with the ultra quiet motor this won't be picked up on your sound recording), and you can even shoot a high resolution still picture while in movie mode!
If you want to get more detailed information on this Canon digital camera you will find a number of excellent in-depth reviews on the internet. As always, the best advice is to compare and shop around!
