Canon announced two new additions to its affordable A-series line, and one new ultra-zoom digital camera to its SX-series of ultra-zoom cameras. Sporting a new look, the PowerShot A1000 IS and PowerShot A2000 IS digital cameras combine the robust feature-set consumers have come to expect from Canon’s point-and-shoot digital cameras. The new PowerShot SX110 IS digital camera offers users all the benefits of a point-and-shoot camera. The Canon PowerShot A1000 IS digital camera features a 10-megapixel resolution, 4x Optical Zoom lens, DIGIC III Image Processor and comes in four stylish, two-toned colors. The PowerShot A2000 IS digital camera also has a 10-megapixel resolution, as well as DIGIC III Image Processor and is equipped with a 6x Optical Zoom lens, and a 3-inch LCD screen. The PowerShot SX110 IS digital camera features a 9-megapixel resolution, DIGIC III Image Processor, 3-inch LCD screen and 10x Optical Zoom lens.
All cameras allow for close-up shots for those important occasions where you can’t be right on top of the action and a zoom may be required – all with the ease of popping in two AA batteries so a shot is never missed. Each camera is equipped with an optical image stabilized lens to help reduce camera shake. Scheduled to be available in September, the Canon PowerShot A1000 IS and the PowerShot A2000 IS digital cameras will have suggested selling prices of $199.99 and $249.99, respectively. Also, available at the end of August, the PowerShot SX110 IS digital camera will have a suggested selling price of $299.99. All cameras include two AA batteries, 32MB SD memory card, USB interface cable, AV cable, wrist strap and Canon’s software suite.
