Optics and Resolution
The PowerShot S45 has a 4-megapixel sensor with a maximum resolution of 2,272 x 1,704 pixels, which is enough detail for photos from 4 by 6 inches to 20 by 30 inches (poster size). It also features a 3x optical zoom and 3.6x digital zoom for a total 11x zoom.
The S45's new DIGIC image processor is a groundbreaking innovation that speeds operation, ensures pinpoint autofocus accuracy, and takes image quality to a whole new level. The system is integrated with a complex scene-analysis system called iSAPS technology, which brings a highly natural, lifelike quality to digital images.
For beginners, the camera is point-and-shoot simple. Just twist the dial to auto and start snapping pictures. The PowerShot S45 offers a myriad of setting options, including three light-metering modes, white balance presets with two positions for custom settings, exposure and focus bracketing, manual focus and autofocus lock, aperture and shutter-speed priority, and adjustable ISO-equivalent sensitivity.
Storage and Transfer
Images are stored on CompactFlash memory cards, and the memory slot is compatible with CompactFlash Type II cards as well as Microdrives. The included 32 MB card holds approximately 27 images at the large or fine settings.
Movie Mode
Shoot up to three minutes of MPEG video (with sound), which includes editing controls and VCR-like playback. Let the camera take over in automatic mode, or get creative in manual
