Canon Powershot TX1
Posted on February 24th, 2007 in Gear |
My search for the perfect pocket camera may end this April. The newly announced Canon Powershot TX1 is a pocket sized 7.1MP camera capable of HD video in 720p (1280×720) resolution at 30fps. It sports a Digic III image processor and Canon’s Optical Image Stabilization which will complement the whopping 10x optical zoom nicely. The zoom can be utilized during movie mode, a feature that is annoyingly absent from most pocket cameras. Other features include Face Detection, ISO speeds up to 1600 with the ability for ISO to change on-the-fly to match shooting conditions. At an estimated price of $500, I have a feeling this camera is going to be a popular item for those looking for an all-in-one media solution.
