The Power ELPH 170 IS camera's DIGIC 4+ Image Processor
features accelerated processing speed to create fast, responsive
performance, giving you a shooting experience that's easy and
natural. The DIGIC 4+ Image Processor also enhances image quality
in several ways. Processing of high ISO s has been shortened
by 60% compared to the DIGIC 4 Image Processor. This
significantly reduces noise for brilliant color, smooth
gradations, and beautiful detail even in low light. The processor
also allows for the integration of electronic Dynamic IS. This
advanced system compensates for multiple motion types,
effectively preventing angular blur, shift blur, and blur caused
by parallel movement and tilt shift. The result is images that
are reliably sharp and clear at all lengths of the camera's
powerful 12x Optical Zoom. The processor's highly efficient
design also extends battery life.
