PowerShot SD30 Point And Shoot Digital Camera

OverviewThe Canon IXY DIGITAL L3 (pronounced “el three”) succeeds the popular IXY DIGITAL L2 released in November 2004. Employing the Curvature Design method to achieve a sleek and graceful body shape that fits comfortably in the hands and offering a choice of four new high-fashion color variations complemented with shiny metallic accenting, the IXY L3 expresses a sophisticated unique styling not seen in other digital cameras. Canon’s IXY DIGITAL L3 improves on its predecessor with the incorporation of a retractable 2.4x optical zoom lens (35 mm film equivalent: 38-90 mm), featuring a UA lens element, which represents the smallest zoom lens among Canon digital cameras. Additionally, the L3 model ships with a Camera Station that lets users easily charge their camera. It also enables video output, image transfer to a PC, and direct printing with a PictBridge-compatible printer. Playback on a television is quick and convenient using the included wireless remote control. Moreover, the camera features increased operability with a Vertical Shutter Release function. In the same manner as one-handed image capture is possible on camera-equipped mobile phones, the FUNC./SET button on the back of the camera serves as the shutter-release when the camera is vertically oriented.
