Canon PowerShot A1200 prices and specs
The PowerShot A1200 was produced on Jan 5, 2011 and is on sale in USA for 85.00
The PowerShot A1200 is a compact camera. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The Canon PowerShot A1200 has different automatic modes but you won't get photos of the same great quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The PowerShot A1200 can make images at 12 megapixels max resolution. But for better image quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The PowerShot A1200 has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the model will make images with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the PowerShot A1200 has small dimensions and weight. And if you want to shoot images of the best quality check Nikon D810.
The Canon PowerShot A1200 has max shutter speed of 1/1600 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but still you will be able to make images of moving subjects. The photographer will be able to record HD videos that guarantees a good image quality.
The lens is built into the PowerShot A1200 and the camera owner can't switch it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
The PowerShot A1200 battery life will be enough to capture up to 200 images.
