Digital Camera Description From the Manufacturer

The PowerShot SD800 IS features a 7.1-million-pixel CCD sensor. This high-resolution imager ensures every picture will have excellent detail, even when printed large, or cropped.

Wide-Angle Zoom Lens with IS .

Brand new lens design integrates a wide angle zoom (28-105mm equivalent) and image stabilization. This 3.8x wide zoom lens was designed with fewer yet "smarter" optics (dual sided aspherics and UA) to achieve a compact size with wide angle and IS while maintaining impressive image quality.

The SD800 IS is the first Digital Elph to feature both of these exciting lens technologies. DIGIC III Image Processor

Takes the performance and speed of DIGIC II to even higher levels of processing power including new face detection function, up to 1600 speed ISO, high-ISO noise reduction, lower power consumption, increased speed for SD media cards, and higher resolution image processing for enhanced LCD viewing. Face-Priority AF/AE .

Intelligent Face-Priority AF mode reliably detects faces and focuses on them. It detects three faces when shooting in standby and up to nine when shutter button is pressed halfway. When faces are detected the exposure is also biased for proper facial illumination while maintaining overall scene brightness. Large 2.5-Inch Color LCD Monitor.
