    Built to impress
    The commanding 7.1 Megapixel power of the PowerShot S70 captures more than enough detail for full prints exceeding A3 size and effective post-shoot cropping. A new Canon UA lens simultaneously yields hi-fidelity, superb clarity images, a remarkably thin body and an incredibly compact 3.6x optical zoom range.

    Framing freedom
    The focal length range of 28mm wide-angle to 100mm telephoto (35mm format equivalent) is extendable to an impressive 200mm with use of an optional tele-converter. A macro function allows shots from as close as 4cm.

    Creative control
    A vast array of features is protected by a remarkably sleek, elegant and superbly finished compact body. Use the SLR-style Mode Dial on the top of the camera to shift quickly and easily between 13 different shooting modes including VGA movie and custom modes. Lossless RAW format file recording is supported for ultimate control.

    Processing power
    Canon's DIGIC processor executes complex functions at high speed, delivering superb image quality, fast and accurate auto focus and up to 2 frames per second continuous shooting speed. iSAPS instantly analyses the scene and makes adjustments even before the shutter release is pressed, optimising exposure, white balance and auto-focus settings in every shooting situation.

    Focus and exposure
    The 9-Point Artificial Intelligent Auto Focus (AiAF) system automatically detects your subject from nine fixed focusing areas across the frame, keeping even off-centre subjects in-focus. FlexiZone AF/AE lets you scroll the auto focus area around the frame to select the desired subject and weights exposure accordingly.

    Advanced printing
    The camera prints directly to all PictBridge or Canon Direct Print compatible printers. Create beautiful, instant photo prints by connecting camera to printer and pushing the Print/Share button, which also speeds up uploads to any Windows PC.

Canons easy-to-use PowerShot S70 feels like a brick compared to the majority of todays lightweight point-and-shoots, and at $999 its expensive for its class. For the premium, however, it produces outstanding pictures and a has built-in wide-angle lens.

News Issue 8.5 Onsale Now! Why would you want a 7 megapixel camera when a lowly 3.2 megapixel is enough to print out perfectly good 8x10 enlargements? How often do you run monster-sized prints? How many inkjet printers can even do that? The ans...

The Canon Powershot S70 would be great if it did not have so many problems! In terms of functionality it is similar to the Canon Powershot G6, except for a compact body and lens. This is where the corner softness and purple fringing not seen on the G...

  • Our first experience of Sonys new 7.1MP chip, as seen in the Cyber-shot P150, was overwhelmingly positive. Not only does it outperform the 5MP sensor it replaces (the 6MP version never really made an impact on compact cameras) in resolution terms, it...
