The compact Digital IXUS 55 epitomizes stylish performance. A giant screen and exquisitely finished exterior conceal the very latest image processing technology for results that demand to be seen. Elegantly designed with an all-metal finish, the Digital IXUS 55 is slender enough to slip into your pocket. A powerful 5.0 Megapixel CCD sensor delivers photo quality prints up to A3 size with room to spare for post-shoot cropping. An ultra-high refractive index aspherical (UA) 3x optical zoom lens delivers crystal-clear performance in an exceptionally compact form. The Digital IXUS 55's DIGIC II image processor ensures fast, responsive camera performance and superbly rendered colors. iSAPS analyzes each scene and optimizes key camera settings even before a shot is taken. The result is immediate high quality images. An extra large 2.5" LCD brings pleasure to framing and reviewing your creations. The monitor's wide viewing angle provides improved visibility for sharing playback with friends and family. QuickBright gives instant screen brightness in bright outdoor conditions. Night Display automatically improves visibility in low light for easy night shooting. Choose from 15 shooting modes to get that perfect shot. Seven preset Special Scene Modes help achieve great results in tricky lighting conditions. My Colors allows special in-camera color effects to be applied to images and movies in real time. Make extra-long (up to 1GB in size) 30fps VGA quality movie clips with full audio. View them with friends and family on the large LCD or connect to a TV for full screen playback. Record fast action sequences at 60fps QVGA quality and analyze them in sharp slow motion. Printing with the Digital IXUS 55 is a breeze. Simply connect your camera to any PictBridge compatible printer and push the Print/Share button for a full color print within seconds. Connect to a Canon SELPHY CP Series printer and take advantage of advanced print functions, such as printing ID photos and stills from your movies.
