The A2000 IS is part of Canon’s long line of exceptional PowerShot cameras. A 10.0 megapixel sensor captures all the details in the viewfinder for true to life images whether for a webpage or a PictBridge printer. The 6X optical zoom and Optical Image Stabilization system gets you great close-ups without worrying about camera shake.
The legendary DIGIC processor has been improved and now comes with even more features that let you get great shots without a fight. Advanced Face Detection sets the focus point, exposure, flash and white balance so your pictures have a great balance between your subject and the overall scene.
Canon has built 17 shooting modes into the A2000 IS so you can choose the right one for you. Auto takes care of everything and Program gives you creative control over how much to let the camera do. Special outdoor modes including Snow, Beach, Fireworks and Foliage make this a great choice for the outdoor enthusiast.[tubepress mode=’tag’, tagValue=’PowerShot A2000′, resultsPerPage=’9′]General
