PowerShot TX-1 Highlights

DIGIC III Image Processor With DIGIC III, you get images of superior quality, the camera functions at top efficiency and battery life is significantly enhanced. What’s more, DIGIC III enables Canon’s newly improved Face Detection Technology and Red-eye Correction to give you better, more true-to-life people shots. Simply press the Shutter Button halfway down, the PowerShot TX1 automatically pinpoints the faces in the scene and chooses the ideal focus point. To keep every face looking bright and natural -- without scary red eyes -- the camera controls exposure settings and flash, so every shot is just what you were shooting for.

DIGIC III features Face Detection AF/AE, which finds multiple faces in the frame and sets the most suitable focus point, when the shutter button is pressed halfway. And an additional new feature, Face Detection FE adjusts the flash, based on a person’s face on the screen. Exposure and flash are controlled to ensure proper illumination of both the faces and the overall scene, eliminating the common problem of darkened or overexposed faces.

Red-eye Correction detects and automatically corrects red-eye during playback for both regular and flash photography. In unusual cases where red-eye is not automatically detected, it can easily be corrected manually during playback mode from the LCD screen.

iSAPS Technology is an entirely original scene-recognition technology developed for digital cameras by Canon. Using an internal database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works with the fast DIGIC III Image Processor to improve focus speed and accuracy, as well as exposure and white balance.

Full movie capabilities The PowerShot TX1 is a powerful, highly-advanced tool for recording movies. You’ll experience the unprecedented HD clarity of 720P recording at 30 fps. The camera’s Face Detection AF feature for still images is also available in movie mode: faces are detected and properly focused for a measurable improvement in movie quality. Sound is recorded in stereo, and 1080i component video playback is available for a true HD experience.

1.8-inch vari-angle, wide-view LCD Pull out the wide-view LCD and turn as needed to get just the right angle for your images and movies. The screen’s highly durable new coating resists scratches and fingerprints and is easy to wipe clean. New anti-reflective coating keeps the picture clear and visible even in bright sunlight.

ISO 1600 with ISO Auto Shift The PowerShot TX1 features ISO 1600 with ISO Auto Shift that increases the ISO sensitivity to where camera shake does not occur. Then camera shake can prevented and the ISO speed setting changes each time, automatically.

Elegant all-metal construction with built-in lens cap When you own a camera as compact as the TX1, you’ll want to take it everywhere. This camera is up tothe challenge with high-grade all-metal construction.The built-in ens cap opens when the camera is turned on and closes when the camera is turned off -- no worrying about scratches and smudges.
