PowerShot A490

Features

Smart Auto • Smart Auto mode uses Canon's latest Scene Detection Technology to determine subject brightness, contrast, distance and overall hue, including the ability to differentiate between day-time and low-light (night time) scenarios for an effortless capture of the perfect picture. • The Smart Auto shooting mode intelligently selects the proper settings for the camera based on 13 pre-defined shooting situations

Smart FE (Flash Exposure) • During flash photography, Canon uses the scene detection function to determine the distance and shooting conditions to calculate the best flash exposure to produce natural images. • This reduces chances of overexposure when shooting people at close distances, prevention of dark background and shadows on faces when shooting subjects under strong sunlight.   Low Light Mode • Low Light* mode is ideal: - when shooting in demanding light situations - when the flash is not permitted - to maintain the warm indoor ambience * ISO to max. 3200 with max. 2MB file size
