20.2 Megapixel* High-Sensitivity CMOS Sensor
The PowerShot ELPH 360 HS A camera has a 20.2 Megapixel* High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor that’s perfect for PowerShot cameras. Its clever light-capturing design makes it super sensitive, great for high ISO shots, and reduces noise. Plus, it takes photos fast, processing the image data quickly letting you shoot and focus continuously.
DIGIC 4+ Image Processor
The Canon DIGIC 4+ Image Processor is the brain behind the PowerShot ELPH 360 HS A camera’s features, like Hybrid Auto, Creative Shot, and full HD video recording. It’s fast and responsive, making it fun and easy to shoot. The processor also improves image quality which means less noise, so you’ll get bright colors, smooth transitions, and clear details even in low light. And guess what? It also has electronic Dynamic IS, which helps prevent blur caused by different types of movement, so you’ll get sharp and clear images.
Canon HS SYSTEM Helps Provide Excellent Low-light Performance
This camera takes stunningly detailed, naturally lit photos even in low light, so you don’t need flash! Its 20.2 Megapixel* High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor, along with the DIGIC 4+ Image Processor, makes the Canon HS SYSTEM, designed for amazing low-light performance. You’ll get great tracking and gorgeous still image quality at ISO speeds up to ISO 3200. It reduces noise and makes details pop in both the light and dark areas for beautiful low-light shots.
Creative Shot Mode
The camera’s Creative Shot mode is a game-changer for capturing artistic images. It takes a photo, saves five copies, and applies advanced Canon tech to give you an incredible 46 filter options based on what you see, what you’re shooting, and how bright it is. You can choose from Retro, Monochrome, Special, or Natural filters, or you can let the camera pick the best one for you. Creative Shot mode makes it easy to create stunning photos that you can share with friends and family.
Intelligent IS
Canon’s Intelligent IS is like a magic wand that automatically detects camera movement. It then applies the perfect shake correction method, whether you’re taking a still photo or recording a video. So, you can focus on framing and capturing the perfect shot, without worrying about camera shake. And guess what? The icons clearly mark the image stabilization mode, so you can easily switch between them.
Hybrid Auto
Hybrid Auto makes capturing memories even more enjoyable. For every photo you take, it automatically records a short four-second video clip, then stitches those clips together into a fun, ready-to-watch highlight reel of your day. It’s perfect for documenting special occasions, travel adventures, or just everyday moments. Plus, it intelligently detects different scenes and adjusts settings to keep your footage clear and steady, all in 1080p Full HD. It’s a simple way to turn your photo sessions into mini movies without any extra effort.
Story Highlights
Story Highlight is a smart and fun way to turn your photos and videos into a short, shareable story, right from the camera. It automatically creates a highlight short video (around three minutes long) based on date, event, or people, or lets you customize it for a more personal touch. You can even add background music from three built-in tracks to enhance the mood. No extra software needed, just press a button and the camera does the rest. Your highlight video is saved directly to the memory card, ready to replay or share instantly to your smartphone via built-in Wi-Fi. It’s a simple way to relive your favorite moments in a whole new way.
