Canon IXUS 300 HS review
Have you ever dreamed about the stylish yet powerful compact camera capable of capturing not only perfect still pictures, but also High Definition (HD) video?
Your dreams come true with the new Canon IXUS 300HS compact digital camera (in North America called also Canon PowerShot SD4000IS Digital ELPH).
If you are into tech details (like me), you will learn that HS stands for the new Canon HS System which combines sensitive 10.0 megapixel sensor and DIGIC 4 image processor. That gives us amazing low light performance and…surprise…even high-speed shooting!

With Canon IXUS 300 HS you can shoot anytime, anywhere
Taking pictures in low light conditions always is a challenge. It used to require tripods, image stabilised lenses, high ISO setting ranges available only to SLR cameras. Not anymore. Canon IXUS 300 HS steps into low-light photography territory thanks to recently developed back-illuminated sensor and Canon DIGIC 4 image processor that noticeable reduces noise levels in these shooting conditions.
300HS camera also has special Low Light mode for shooting night events. The secret behind this mode is increased sensor sensitivity, great bright lens and Canon’s famous Image Stabilizer (IS) feature. Because of these features you can now get sharp and clear pictures even in low light conditions!
If you are into taking creative portrait and macro pictures and would give an arm and a leg for nice ‘bokeh’, you will love another cool feature - f/2.0 wide angle lens. Wide maximum lens aperture provides control over depth of field. And the depth of field is the secret sauce that makes these portraits so awesome.
300 HS – it is High Speed
When it comes to capturing high speed situations, Canon IXUS 300HS has few competitors. You can choose between 3.7 shots per second at full resolution of 10MP, and 8.4 shots per second at 2.5MP resolution. And there is no limit on number of shots taken in this mode. Well, actually there is a limit – your memory card capacity.
Wait – there is more. Remember high speed shooting mentioned above? 300HS (high-speed!) camera has Super Slow Motion Movie recording mode. That captures 240 frames per second! Can you imagine how spectacular is that?!

And HD is also there
Another video capture mode IXUS 300HS provides is 720p high definition movie recording with high quality stereo sound. The built in microphone is so sensitive Canon had to invent the special quiet drive system for the camera lens to minimise sound of zoom during the recording.
