Canon Middle East has unveiled its slimmest ever 30x zoom digital camera, the PowerShot SX700 HS offering full HD 60p movies and creative shooting modes.

The camera features 34.8mm thick body while an ultra-wide angle 25mm lens offers the flexibility to capture a vista, while the focal length also gives you the freedom to zoom in on detail in the distance.

Canon’s ZoomPlus technology digitally extends the camera’s reach to 60x while maintaining full resolution image quality. The handy Zoom Framing Assist feature also helps keep your subject in the frame when using the telephoto zoom.

Canon’s HS System combines the latest generation Canon Digic 6 processor with a high-sensitivity 16.1 megapixel CMOS sensor to give you beautiful results, with sharp detail and realistic colours even in low light.

Shooting in different situations is possible using Canon’s optical Image Stabilizer with Intelligent IS technology. Adapting to eight different scenes, Canon’s Intelligent IS analyses your shot – whether it’s watersports in the sun, or shooting exquisite flowers up close – and automatically adjusts the stabilisation mode.

PowerShot SX700 HS’s built-in Wi-Fi connectivity enables sharing shots on social networks by connecting to smartphones or tablets using the mobile device connect button. Or alternatively pair the camera to your device using the new NFC functionality; simply touch the two devices together to begin sharing via Canon’s dedicated CameraWindow app.

The PowerShot SX700 HS’s Movie Record Button easily switches from shooting pictures to filming, and thanks to the power of Digic 6, video is shot at 60fps with high quality stereo sound.

For a shorter snapshot video of your day, Hybrid Auto automatically captures the four seconds before each still image is shot, joining all the clips together into a single movie. – TradeArabia News Service
