• 720p HD at 24fps Video Recording with Stereo Sound
• 3.0inch PureColor II G LCD Display, 461k-dot
• HDR shooting mode (really? embrace the light, don’t fight it)
• Slimmer Body, 29.5 mm thick

• 1st Canon point and shoot to use the Hybrid IS
• Revised Control Dial with Better Click-stops for Settings
• XDHC Card Compatibility
