Description — Canon PowerShot ELPH 115 IS
The Canon PowerShot ELPH 115 IS is a compact point-and-shoot camera centered on a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor processed by Canon's DIGIC 4 image processor. Maximum still image resolution reaches 4608x3456 pixels, and shooters can choose from five color profiles — Standard, Vivid, Neutral, Sepia, and Black & White — directly in-camera. The ISO range spans 100 to 1600.
Autofocus is handled by a contrast detection system with 9 focus points, augmented by Face Detection AF and subject tracking for added versatility. Optical image stabilization (OIS) is built in to help counter camera shake. For video, the camera captures up to 720p at 30fps or 25fps in 8-bit quality. The built-in flash supports Auto, On, Off, Slow Sync, and Red-Eye modes.
The 2.7-inch fixed LCD at 230,000 dots handles all framing duties. At 133g and 92.9 x 52.4 x 21.6 mm, the plastic body is genuinely compact. Storage relies on SD, SDHC, or SDXC cards, and the NB-11L battery is rated for approximately 220 shots per charge.
