The IXY DIGITAL 700, successor to the stylish high-performance IXY DIGITAL 600 launched in March 2005, marks the first appearance of a large 2.5″ LCD monitor in a Canon compact digital camera. In addition to low power consumption operation and a high-brightness backlight, the camera’s 115,000 dots monitor achieves vertical and horizontal viewing angles approximately 1.5 times wider than those offered by its predecessor for significantly improved visibility.
Capitalizing on the large LCD monitor, the IXY DIGITAL 700 incorporates a new user interface that maximizes the enjoyment of both shooting and viewing digital photographs. The camera offers a range of new still-image playback options with transition effects when advancing and reversing through images, and when viewing photos in the slide show mode. The model also includes an image rotation function that automatically adjusts the size of playback images to the orientation of the camera. Horizontal and vertical gridlines facilitate framing and image composition when shooting while animated easy-to-understand information displays support greater ease of use.
In addition to an ultra high-resolution 7.1-megapixel CCD image sensor, a 3x optical zoom lens, and Canon’s DIGIC II image engine, the IXY DIGITAL 700 features improved white balance control that delivers more faithful and stable color reproduction performance compared with its predecessor. The model also offers the same high level of functionality as the IXY DIGITAL 600, including fast camera startup and high-speed autofocus performance, made possible by DIGIC II, and enables digital zooming when shooting video clips.
The stylish IXY DIGITAL 700 was created using the Curvature Design method to achieve a sleek and graceful body shape that fits comfortably in the hands. Complementing the luxurious feel of the body design, the camera is available in two elegant color variations-silver gray and an all-new satin beige-and is specially treated to realize a high-brightness surface finish.
IXY DIGITAL 700 supports the PictBridge standard for printing photos directly from PictBridge-compatible printers, regardless of the manufacturer or brand. The lineup also ships with the Canon Digital Camera Solution Disk, featuring a range of versatile software applications, including ZoomBrowser EX (Windows) and ImageBrowser (Macintosh), as well as PhotoStitch for combining images into panorama views, and ArcSoft PhotoStudio photo-editing software.
