IXY DIGITAL 810 IS succeeds the 800 IS launched in April 2006, which earned high praise as the first IXY-series model to be equipped with an optical image stabilizer. The new IXY features a retractable 4x optical zoom lens with a lens-shift image stabilizer and incorporates an 8.0-megapixel CCD sensor, representing an increase in resolution performance compared with its predecessor, as well as the DIGIC III image processor for exceptional imaging performance. Furthermore, the camera includes a 2.5-inch high-resolution (approximately 230,000 dots) “Clear Live LCD” monitor that offers a wide viewing angle and realizes a wide color-reproduction range. A protective cover on the monitor contributes to increased ease of use by reducing glare while also protecting the screen from scratches, dirt and grime.
The IXY DIGITAL 810 IS employs the same acclaimed “Curvature & Stream Design” form as its predecessor and is complemented by an elegant tri-color styling, featuring the newly introduced color pearl silver, for a sophisticated and refined look and feel.
