The PowerShot A3400 IS features the ease of LCD touch control for changing settings, shooting modes and even image capture. The 16.0 Megapixel Image Sensor and DIGIC 4 Image Processor combination delivers outstanding image quality for both still and video capture.

View and Frame at Almost Any Angle
The PowerShot A3400 IS features a large and bright three inch LCD screen for easy to viewing and framing. The 230,000 dot high resolution allows screen visibility from above, below or to the side. All angles are free of color shifts and visible with minimal reflections. A scratch-proof hard coating and a dust-repellent fluorine coating ensure a durable screen that is ideal for on the go situations.

Multiple Function Touch Panel LCD and Touch Shutter
The touch panel of the PowerShot A3400 IS handles multiple functions, such as settings, image capture and playback. Moving subjects can also be tracked, so the AF point is always on the subject until ready to capture. The shutter release once a finger is lifted off of the LCD.

Intelligent  IS
The PowerShot A1300 IS features Digital IS (image stabilization), which recognizes the main subject and automatically applies the best correction for camera shake. For portraits, blur reduction processing is performed to insure a sharp image, with moving subjects captured in three successive shots, with the clearest image automatically saved. For landscapes, cityscapes and other still scenes, the camera captures three successive shots quickly, then composes each one into a single clear image

Smart Auto
The PowerShot A1300 IS features Smart AUTO, which automatically assesses the scene through various factors in both the background and the subject. Detected scenes are analyzed using 32 predefined shooting situations, with the optimal setting applied to insure the best image. Advanced Subject Detection allows the PowerShot A1300 to specifically detect and track moving subjects like animals and vehicles

Add Effects with Scene Mode Options
The PowerShot A1300 IS creates photographic effects through Scene Modes, without the need for special lenses or accessories. The one step camera setting includes Fisheye Effect for the classic convex distortion, Toy Camera Effect that recreates a toy camera or pinhole look and Monochrome which adds a distinct single tone effect to the photo.

Exterior Help Button
The PowerShot A1300 IS digital camera is designed for fun and ease of use, even for beginners. The Help Button located on the camera’s exterior brings up the help menu at anytime, right on the LCD screen. Users can scroll through a variety of topics that answer questions with clear explanations, offer helpful shooting advice, and show diagrams highlighting the position of any buttons required as part of the response.


One Touch 720p HD Video plus iFrame Option
The PowerShot A1300 IS has a dedicated movie button to start and stop recording instantly in 720p HD. No need to access layers of menus or navigate switches or dials to access the video recording mode. In addition to being able to shoot 720p HD video at 25 frames per second, the PowerShot A1300 IS can also shoot 640 x 480 VGA video at approximately 30 frames per second.

For computer options, video capture using the Apple iFrame format speeds up importing and editing. File sizes are kept small for convenience during upload or sending video by e-mail. The iFrame format enjoys native support in compatible Macs and is also compatible with Windows video applications without the need for file conversion.
