Canon Powershot A75 Digital Camera {3.2MP}

The PowerShot A75 features a 3x (35-105mm equivalent) Canon optical zoom lens with a 3.2x digital zoom lens and can focus as close as 2 inches from the subject (in macro setting). The A75 features a larger and markedly improved 1.8-inch 118,000-pixel LCD monitor with a histogram display and a zoom capability of up to 10x on playback. Among the other upgraded features on the PowerShot A75 is the camera's nine-point autofocus system (improved from the A70's five-point system).

Other Features
The camera's Postcard Date Imprint mode provides a user selectable date stamp that can be imprinted in the corner of a picture, similar to those found on 35mm QD(Quartz Date) cameras. When selected, the Postcard mode also deliberately crops the image creating a slightly longer rectangle to fill a 4 x 6 postcard. When shooting in Postcard mode the camera automatically reduces the resolution to 1600 x 1200 with fine compression (an ideal setting for 4 x 6 images with no need for the user to manually set the resolution and compression).
