 Unleash Your Inner Professional
No matter how good a photographer
you may be, the 8-megapixel PowerShot Pro 1 makes you better. Every time you use
it. That's beacuse it's the first PowerShot digital camera to use Canon's
fluorite L Lens technology---renowned by professional photographers for its
agility to heighten image sharpness and reduce color distortion. Combine that
with 8 megapixels, and there's no limit to the photographer you can become.
PowerShot Advances to a New Level of Peformance
PowerShot Pro1 is not only the flagship of the PowerShot line, but a decisive
leader in the compact digital camera class. The camera has an extraordinary
8 Megapixels of imaging power, a superb Canon L-series 7x zoom lens, and a host
of professional-level capabilities. Yet with all its advanced technology, the
Pro1 retains the ease of use that PowerShot cameras are famous for.
Professional Features, Made Simple
The Canon PowerShot Pro 1 also features spectacular 7x optical zoom and Canon's
now-famous DIGIC Image Processor for more vibrant colors, better white balance
and sharper focus. More than simply an 8 megapixel camera, the PowerShot Pro1
is also the first compact digital to sport a 7X Ultrasonic lens that is electronically
controlled by a ring around the barrel. The ergonomic design of the Pro1 borrows
heavily from the design of SLR cameras. The grip area is accentuated, and topped
not only by a chromed 2-stage shutter release but also by a Command Dial that
can be both rotated and clicked in like a mouse button. The Command Dial serves
to select apertures or shutter speeds in some modes, and can be used to make
some menu selections. The Pro1 provides an articulated 235,000 pixel 2-inch
LCD monitor. The LCD screen can be opened to the left, and rotated 180° up,
making it face the front and allowing it to be pushed back onto the camera's
back, or rotated 90° down.

The Most
Powerful, Advanced Lens in the PowerShot Line
The PowerShot Pro1
incorporates Canon's top-of-the-line lens, the L Lens, legendary among
professional photographers. Driven by an Ultrasonic Motor, the super-fast
28-200mm (35mm equivalent) f/2.4-3.5 lens uses fluorite and UD (Ultra-low
dispersion) glass for clear, sharp image delineation with an absolute minimum in
chromatic aberration. |

Large Display Panel
Information in the large display panel is
always clear and visible—and the panel can be illuminated at the push of a
button. The mode dial is located for easy viewing during operation, and a main
switch takes you quickly from shooting to playback mode. |
 |
Shooting with flash never slows down the action.
The Built-in
Pop-up Flash retracts when not in use, and you can opt to allow the flash to pop
up and fire automatically whenever the camera detects a low ambient light
situation. The camera’s 3-mode built-in flash includes Red-Eye Reduction, and
can be completely automatic or adjusted manually to 3 levels. |

DiG!C Image
Processor
Canon's exclusive DIGIC Image Processor revolutionizes how you
shoot digital by allowing the camera to process images faster and improving the
accuracy of the autofocus. DIGIC also reduces the effects on noise in your
images. |
