Canon PowerShot SD990 IS (Digital IXUS 980 IS) prices and specs
The PowerShot SD990 IS (Digital IXUS 980 IS) was produced on Sep 17, 2008 and is on sale in USA for 54.62
The PowerShot SD990 IS (Digital IXUS 980 IS) is a ultracompact camera. Its main advantage is a small size: the photographer can take it anywhere with himself easily. The PowerShot SD990 IS (Digital IXUS 980 IS) is equipped with different automatic modes but you won't get photographs of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The camera can make photos at 15 megapixels highest resolution. But for better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/1.7' (7.44 x 5.58 mm) sensor which means that the model will produce photos with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the PowerShot SD990 IS (Digital IXUS 980 IS) has small dimensions and weight. But if you want to make photos of the best quality pay attention to Nikon D4S.
The PowerShot SD990 IS (Digital IXUS 980 IS) has max shutter speed of 1/1600 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but anyway you will manage to capture photos of moving objects. The camera can even shoot videos but the max resolution is not too high - 640 x 480 (30 fps).
The lens is fixed and the camera owner can't switch it. The lens provides weak 3x optical zoom.
