Canon Releases New Line of Cameras for PMA
Posted by Jason Dunn in "ARTICLE" @ 11:47 AM
"Next, Canon has announced two new Digital Elph cameras, the SD750 and SD1000, intended for the tech-savvy and fashion-conscious photographers lurking among us. The cameras feature a new DIGIC III processor offering faster startup, improved image quality, and faster shutter times. The units also sport face detection technology, red-eye correction, ISO sensitivities ranging from 80 to 1600 and sport an Auto ISO Shift feature which can automatically increase ISO sensitivity up to 800 to offsent [sic] camera shake and motion. The SD750 sports a 3-inch LCD while the SD1000 offers a 2.5-inch LCD; both cameras offer 7.1 megapixel resolutions and 3× optical zooms—although there's no mention of image stabilization tehcnology [sic] in these slim fashion-focused shooters. The SD750 should be available in March at an estimated price of $349.99; the SD1000 should go for about $299.99."
We've already talked about the new Canon EOS-1D Mark III, and this Digital Trends article covers the rest. The SD750 and SD1000 confuse me a bit though - it seems that neither have any sort of image stabilization, which make them dubious upgrades depending on what kind of Canon camera you have now. It looks like neither of these is an upgrade over the SD800.
