The 7.1-megapixel PowerShot S70 digital camera widens the photographic options for consumers and enthusiasts alike with its high performance 28-100mm UA wide-angle 3.6x optical zoom lens and a compact, two-toned dark metallic and black body. Equipped with a uniquely designed lens that features Canon's exclusive Ultra High Refractive Index Aspherical technology, called UA Lens technology for short, which produces outstanding sharpness and clarity while at the same time allowing the camera body to be even thinner and more compact than previous models with smaller zoom ratios. The 28mm zoom setting makes real estate photography, group photos and travel photography much easier, while the UA technology produces crystal clear image quality at all focal lengths. Also featuring a redesigned control layout on the rear of the camera, which replaces the multi-controller found on previous S-series models with separate controls for zooming and menu selection, making the S70 camera easier to use. Canon has also upgraded the LCD monitor with a new animated menu navigation system that makes it easier to select custom settings and other adjustments.
