The Canon Powershot V1 is a Medium Digital Camera with a 1.4" sensor. Its 22 Megapixels CMOS sensor offers an ISO 100-32000 sensitivity range which is expandable to ISO 100-51200. This makes it possible to shoot hand-held in very low-light. With 22 MP of resolution, sharp prints are possible up to 24" x 16" at 240 DPI.
A builtin Image Stabilization mechanism allows the Canon Powershot V1 to compensate for camera shake up to 5-Stops beyond hand-holding.
This camera features a mechanic shutter that can expose for 1/16000 to 30s. Bulb exposures of an unspecified duration are possible with this camera. With a fastest shutter-speed of 1/16000, fast action can easily be frozen. Night photography is possible using this digital camera due to its long exposure capability. This camera model offers Full Manual Controls.
The lens on this digital camera has a fixed focus distance. It is neither capable of AF or MF and is permanentally focused at the same distance.
A single control-dial on this camera makes it easy to use semi-automatic modes by adjusting the current exposure parameter directly This camera does not feature any seals to protect it against adverse weather, dust and moisture. Care must be taken, just like with most electronics. There is no viewfinder on the Canon Powershot V1 and no provision to add one.
