The Canon IXUS 220 HS in Black has an unrivalled combination of HS System-powered performance with classic IXUS design; the IXUS 220 HS offers ultra-wide 5x zoom, Full HD and superior low light shooting in a sleek stainless steel body. A high performance DIGIC4 processor and high sensitivity sensor give superior image quality in all situations. A high-quality 24mm ultra-wide angle Canon lens is very flexible and will allow you to include more in the frame. The 5x zoom with optical Image Stabilizer makes it much easier to get a better, detailed view of shots and also reduces image blur. A tempered glass-covered LCD screen is durable, strong and offers fantastic contrast; allowing you to frame and review images rapidly and accurately from any angle.

High quality movies can now be recorded in Full HD (1080p) format. Two additions to highten the video quality are crystal clear stereo sound and Dynamic IS, which will stabilise movies against wobble and shake. Capture photo's of fast-paced subjects with up to 8.0 shots/second using High-speed Burst mode or slow down movement of up to 1/8th of the real speed, using Super Slow Motion Movie mode. Movie Digest captures up to 4-seconds of the action before a shot is even takem joining all the clips together from the same day into a single VGA movie to add to your collection of photos. With this camera you are able to use a Fish-eye Effect to re-create the distortion of a fish-eye lens while Miniature Effect transforms landscapes into miniature scale models in both photos and movies.
