 2.6
Recording Megapixels Offer Superb Resolution
The 1/1.8-inch CCD image sensor with 2.6 recording megapixels gives the Canon
PowerShot Pro90 IS true high resolution performance. It enables you to create
images at resolutions of up to 1,856 x 1,392 pixels with all the detail and
color you need for superior quality prints and much more. The
complementary-color mosaic filter assures greater sensitivity in low light with
less noise than conventional RGB arrays.
Faster Signal Processing Puts You in Control
With the Canon PowerShot Pro90 IS, processing time is noticeably reduced, while image
quality is clearly enhanced. The key is Canon's dedicated Digital Signal
Processing IC (integrated chip) with buffer memory. It reduces the interval
between shots while at the same time it assures rich detail and clarity. So, you
get both speed and superlative picture quality -without compromise. A continuous
burst mode lets you shoot high-resolution "motor drive" sequences at
speeds up to 1.7 frames per second, while shot-to-shot intervals are less than 3
seconds in single frame mode. In CCD Raw Mode, loss less compression provides
maximum quality images and greatly enhances storage capacity.
Focus On the Creative Process
Designed to perform like a traditional camera, the Canon PowerShot Pro90 IS offers the
focusing options you demand. There's Continuous AF that works non-stop to keep
the image in focus even before you press the shutter button-so you're always
prepared for the decisive moment. Or for greater creative control, Manual Focus
is readily available at the touch of the button. For extreme close-ups, you can
get as close as 3.9 inches from your subject at the 7mm Wide setting.
Measure the Light Your Own Way
Different shooting environments require different metering styles. With the
PowerShot Pro90 IS you've got three choices. There's Center-weighted Average
Metering for shooting typical subject under normal lighting conditions. When
your require greater precision, like for example when you're shooting subjects
brighter or darker than their backgrounds, there's Spot Metering. You also have
Manual Exposure that allows you to set aperture and shutter speed independently
- so you can exercise the same degree of creative control with the PowerShot
Pro90 IS that you can with a film-based camera.
EOS-Based Shooting Modes Free You To Create
One of the features that makes Canon and the EOS series of cameras the choice of
working photographers is its shooting modes that offer unparalleled control in a
wide range of situations. The PowerShot Pro90 IS offers 12 EOS-based Shooting
Modes. The Image Zone modes offer automatic settings that handle specific
situations quickly. The Creative Zone modes allow you to interpret the scene in
a more personal way.
Flash Enhances Your Creativity
The Pop-up, Built-in Flash with 5 control modes is the right choice for direct
illumination. When you need longer range and greater control, the camera's
"hot shoe" lets you attach an optional 220EX, 420EX or 550EX Canon
Speedlite for E-TTL autoflash control. This makes it possible to shoot virtually
anywhere. In addition, a Manual Red-Eye Reduction feature lets you fire the
Red-Eye Reduction lamp at the touch of a button for natural-looking people
shots.
