| The PowerShot A510 is the successor to the PowerShot A75 with
enhanced compactness and functions. |
| This camera is equipped with an approximately 3.2 million camera
effective pixel 1/2.5-inch Charge Coupled Device (CCD). The DIGIC
Imaging Processor speeds precise image handling, and when teamed with
iSAPS technology, results in the best image control. |
| This camera is equipped with a 4x optical zoom lens, which covers a
35mm film equivalent focal length ranging from 35 mm to 140 mm, and has
an f/2.6 to f/5.5 aperture. Therefore, its optical shooting range is
even wider than PowerShot A75 with a 3x optical zoom lens. |
| This camera succeeds the basic shooting ability of the PowerShot
A75. Adoption of an AF (autofocus) system lets you focus easily by
simply pressing the shutter button. You can choose either "9-point AiAF"
where the camera automatically chooses AF frames to focus from 9
available points or "1-point center AF" where the camera focuses the
central subject which you aim at with greater certainty. |
| Also, as well as the PowerShotA75, this camera has a [Postcard]
option in the resolution options of the FUNC. menu. When this option is
selected, images will be taken at the optimum size and quality for
printing on postcard sized or smaller paper. In addition, the date and
time can be embedded in the image data so that they appear when the
image is printed. |
| This camera is equipped with a Print/Share button. This button lets
you easily print your images and download images directly from the
camera to a computer (Windows® only) by connecting the camera directly
to a direct print compatible printer(*1) or
connecting the camera to the computer. |
| This camera is equipped with the same13 shooting modes as the
PowerShot A75. And with newly added "Kids & pet" and "Night snap" in the
Special Scene modes(*2) you can shoot an image
with the most appropriate settings for the scene. |
| Also, as a "Custom Self-timer" setting was added to this camera, you
can set the self-timer countdown time (up to 10 seconds) and the number
of shots (up to 10). |
| This camera complies with the PictBridge(*3)
industry standard and has an additional function for multiple image
layout. |
| This camera is equipped with a 1.8 inch Liquid Crystal Display
(LCD). |
| As a new function to switch images back and forth while magnified
was added to this camera, its operability in playback mode when images
are magnified is advanced remarkably. |
| This camera operates with two AA batteries (four batteries are used
for PowerShot A75) and MultiMediaCard or an SD memory card for a
recording media. In comparison with PowerShot A75, the main body of this
camera is miniaturized (approx. 10mm shorter in width, approx. 7mm
shorter in depth) and the weight (approx. 180g) is approx. 20g lighter.
Its weight in use with batteries and a media is approximately 230g,
which is much lighter than the PowerShot A75 (approx. 300g). |
| Software for transferring your pictures to a computer, organizing
pictures, laying out pictures for printing and editing still pictures
and movies is included with the camera. This software is available for
both the Windows and Mac OS platforms(*4). |
| Various accessories sold separately such as conversion lenses and a
waterproof case are available. In addition, the high-power flash that
extends the range of flash shooting is available as a brand-new
accessory sold separately. |
