Great shooting now comes in black: the Digital IXUS 980 IS

Canon’s new Digital IXUS 980 IS has a totally new design, finished – for the first time – in cool, all-over black. But there’s far more to this camera than good looks. It’s packed with the very latest in imaging technology. A 14.7 Megapixel resolution gives you the detail for massive, poster-size prints. Canon’s latest DIGIC 4 processor powers features like Face Detection and Motion Detection Technology - so taking stunning photos becomes so easy, you could do it with your eyes shut.

For those who like to experiment, the Digital IXUS 980 IS offers another all-new feature for Digital IXUS: a Manual mode that allows control of shutter speed and aperture. It’s ideal for handling tricky lighting conditions, or getting dramatic effects like motion blur. And if you see something that deserves a place on YouTube, you can switch to shooting great 30fps VGA movie clips.
