The silver Canon PowerShot ELPH 330 HS Digital Camera is a compact point-and-shoot camera featuring a 12.1 megapixel CMOS sensor and DIGIC 5 image processor for high quality imagery with notable low-light performance. The combination of these two technologies forms the Canon HS SYSTEM, which focuses on rendering clear imagery while reducing the appearance of noise and camera blur in difficult lighting situations. Also benefitting the low-light shooting abilities of the ELPH 330 is Intelligent IS, which automatically chooses from six different shooting modes to optimize image stabilization settings for the type of shooting. The built-in 10x optical zoom lens gives a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 24-240mm, providing a zoom range suitable for most situations. A high speed autofocus system helps to acquire focus quickly and accurately, which greatly serves a fast continuous shooting rate of 6.2fps for easily capturing moving subjects.

The image sensor and processor also afford the ability to produce full HD videos up to 1080p with stereo sound and full zooming abilities during recording. Images and movies can be viewed on an HDTV via the HDMI connection or can also be viewed on the rear 3.0" LCD monitor, which is also used for image composition and menu navigation. For even more sharing abilities, built-in Wi-Fi connectivity allows you to instantly share imagery directly from your camera to social networking sites, when using Canon iMAGE GATEWAY, or straight to your iOS or Android mobile device for further sharing.
