From the Manufacturer
---------------------
Experience the Power.
Canon's HS SYSTEM with a 12.1 Megapixel CMOS and DIGIC 4 Image
Processor improves shooting in low-light situations without the
need for a flash and lowers noise levels at higher ISO settings.
The Canon HS SYSTEM takes the frustration out of low light
shooting. The system delivers clear, blur-free s with all the
ambiance intact, and frees you from the sometimes unwanted
effects of using the flash. Beautiful low light s are
possible at both low and high ISO speeds, and the dynamic range
is expanded to retain maximum detail in highlight and shadow
areas.
The system is the result of two technologies brought together in
a compact Power. The first is the 12.1 Megapixel CMOS Sensor,
which positions the light-receiving surface for optimal light
reception. More light means clearer, blur-free images with plenty
of detail and nuance, even in dark areas. Working together with
the CMOS sensor to deliver the HS SYSTEM is Canon's advanced
DIGIC 4 Image Processor, which actively reduces noise and
delivers high speed image processing.
