28mm wide-angle 14x zoom lens
The PowerShot SX210 IS combines compact, take-anywhere proportions with a wide 28mm Canon lens, perfect for capturing landscapes or group shots. A 14x optical zoom lets you fill the frame with distant subjects, while the 4-stop optical Image Stabilizer prevents image blur due to camera shake throughout the long zoom range.

14.1 Megapixels
With a high resolution 14.1 MP sensor, make poster-size prints or creatively crop images.

7.6 cm (3.0") PureColor II G LCD
A wide aspect 7.6 cm (3.0”) PureColor II G LCD is ideal for shooting and playback of HD movies in wide format. A tempered glass layer improves strength and ensures high visibility even when shooting in bright conditions.

High Definition Movies
Create stunning HD 720p movies with stereo sound, then use the integrated HDMI port to connect to a compatible HDTV. Dynamic Image Stabilization keeps movies free from camera shake while the optical zoom can be used to get close to your subject. Smart Auto – also available in Movie shooting – delivers the best results for your shooting scene.

Effortless Shooting
Smart Auto and Easy shooting modes use Scene Detection Technology to determine subject brightness, contrast, distance and hue. The camera then selects the appropriate scene from a possible 22, and applies optimal settings. Smart Flash Exposure intelligently controls flash power and usage to ensure natural results in a variety of conditions.

Face Detection Technology
A suite of Face Detection technologies detects up to 35 faces in a scene and adjusts focus, exposure, flash settings and white balance for natural-looking results.

Smart Shutter
This versatile shooting mode lets you remotely trigger the shot by either winking, smiling, or when an extra face enters the frame.

i-Contrast
During shooting or playback, i-Contrast optimises dynamic range and contrast for a scene – retaining detail in shadows and preventing overexposure of highlights.

DIGIC 4
The DIGIC 4 processor delivers richly detailed, clean images, even when shooting at high ISO speeds. DIGIC 4 also drives exceptional processing speeds, responsive operation, and Servo AF/AE – which tracks moving subjects, keeping them in focus and correctly exposed.

Creative shooting modes
Shooting modes include Full Manual, Av and Tv for total creative control, and Low Light, plus Miniature and Fish-eye Effect.
