The Canon Powershot A800 Digital Camera (Black) takes the guesswork out of deciding what you need in a digital camera--it has everything you need to take beautiful color photographs.
Start with the basics: a high-resolution 10-megapixel CCD sensor, a 37-122mm (35mm equivalent) 3.3x zoom lens, and a bright 2.5" LCD monitor for composing and viewing your pictures.
The Smart Auto mode will automatically choose the right settings, based on 19 predefined common shooting situations (including Portrait, Kids & Pets, Beach, Snow, Foliage, Fireworks, etc.)--all you have to do is push the shutter button for great pictures every time. Face Detection technology optimizes focus, shutter speed and exposures for the people in your photos. Low Light mode plus Blur Reduction technology plus sensitivity up to 1600 ISO means you never need to worry about blurry pictures, even when there isn't a lot of light. Red-Eye Correction is built-in, and there's even a Macro mode so you can take dramatic close-up pictures (from as close as 0.4"/1 cm!).
This compact (3.7 x 2.4 x 1.2"/94 x 61 x 31mm) and lightweight (6.5 oz/186 g) camera runs on easy-to-find AA batteries, so you can take it with you everywhere--and never miss a good picture. A required memory card is not included.
