Canon Powershot A460 News Release Summary:
Taking Exceptional Pictures is a Snap with Canon’s New A-Series
Cameras
LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., January 18, 2007 – Building on a solid track
record of quality and performance, Canon today announced two new
entry-level PowerShot A-Series models, the 7.1 megapixel
PowerShot A550 and the 5.0 megapixel PowerShot A460 digital
cameras. These new models are feature-packed and offer consumers
the latest technological advancements in easy-to-use designs.
They are the perfect upgrade for owners of existing entry-level
cameras and they also provide a smooth transition for first-time
digital camera users. Both cameras will be available in stores
mid-February and will carry estimated selling prices of $199.99
and $149.99, respectively.*
“The new PowerShot A460 digital camera delivers an exceptional
value to the consumer,” says Yuichi Ishizuka, senior vice
president and general manager of the Consumer Imaging Group at
Canon U.S.A., Inc. “They provide enhanced features and high
image quality, while at the same time remaining compact,
affordable and easy-to-use. Users are going to love taking
pictures with Canon’s new PowerShot cameras and capturing
moments that they can continue to enjoy for generations.”
This dynamic duo allows users to capture all of life’s special
moments – from the winning pass at a high school football game,
to the waterfalls on that once-in-a-lifetime vacation, to the
joy of a baby’s first steps. With their exquisite image quality,
easy-to-use features and intuitive design, Canon’s newest
PowerShot models will work reliably for any occasion and in any
situation. And since both cameras are small enough to tote
anywhere, all of life’s adventures can be documented for
posterity. Users will be able to keep these cameras on standby
whenever life’s best moments come around. Consumers will never
miss the look on their child’s face as they open birthday
presents, or the close-up of a new grandmother holding her
first-born grandchild.
Whether taking pictures at a local family gathering or on a
vacation across the globe, these new PowerShot A-Series cameras
are great on-the-go because they are conveniently powered by two
AA-size batteries. They represent Canon’s continued commitment
to quality, excellence in imagery and ease-of-use.
PowerShot A460 Digital Camera
The new PowerShot A460 digital camera features 5.0 megapixel
resolution with a 4x optical zoom lens and a 2-inch LCD screen,
up from 4.0 megapixels and a 1.8-inch LCD screen on last year’s
PowerShot A430 model. The new camera also incorporates Canon’s
renowned DIGIC II image processor, which delivers superb image
quality, fast performance, and excellent battery life.
Additional features include an optical viewfinder and
compatibility with MMC, SD and SDHC memory cards. At its value
price point, the PowerShot A460 digital camera is an ideal
purchase for a first time digital camera buyer.
Get It Right the First Time
The PowerShot A460 digital cameras deliver high-resolution
images without requiring users to exert additional effort. Each
model uses Canon’s AiAF “Smart” autofocus system with Canon’s
patented iSAPS intelligent scene analysis algorithm to determine
optimum settings for focusing, exposure and white balance. The
user simply snaps the shot with the push of a button.
The PowerShot A460 features ten standard shooting modes for
still pictures, automatically adjusting the cameras’ settings to
match the surroundings. Still shooting modes include Full Auto,
Auto with manual adjustment of exposure compensation and white
balance, Portrait, Night Snapshot, Kids and Pets, and other
Special Scene modes. Additionally, each new model can record
movies with sound - so you can capture your baby’s first steps
or first words with point and shoot simplicity.
Taking the Next Step
Canon recognizes that capturing an image is only the first step
towards the full enjoyment of digital photography and movie
making. That’s why all new PowerShot digital cameras, including
the A460 model, are equipped with a variety of features to make
viewing and printing your images easier than ever. For example,
both still images and movies can be played back through
compatible personal computers or television sets with accessory
cables that are supplied at no extra charge. Additionally, the
PowerShot A460 digital camera supports one-touch automatic
downloading to compatible personal computers, and the supplied
software automatically organizes images and movie clips
according to the shooting date for easy archiving.
Direct Print
Like all PowerShot digital cameras, these newest additions to
the A-series work seamlessly with Canon’s petite compact photo
printers – an essential PowerShot accessory. Consumers simply
connect their PowerShot digital camera to a compact photo
printer, press the Print/Share button, and within seconds**,
prints emerge. Presto! It is that simple. Canon’s digital
cameras are PictBridge compatible. They work with PictBridge
enabled printers and offer excellent image quality and
ease-of-use. Printing photos directly from a digital camera is
both easy and affordable.
What’s in the Box?
The PowerShot A460 digital camera kit includes a USB cable, an
audio/video cable, a wrist strap, a 16MB MultiMediaCard and
AA-size alkaline batteries as well as the Canon Digital Camera
Solution Disc Version 30, featuring the latest versions of
Canon’s powerful software.***
