Canon Powershot A200 ... High-quality photos are provided by Canon's image processing expertise, optimizing output from the 2.0-megapixel CCD sensor to create images that are great to share by email or to print. The PowerShot A200 also supports Canon's Direct Print printers - the card photo printer CP-100 and CP-10. Direct printing is the quickest and easiest way to get great-quality photos from your Canon digital camera without a PC. Simply connect the camera to the printer, select the image on your camera, and print. The CP-100 allows up to 10 x 15cm photos and the CP-10 is ideal for credit card-size photos.

The PowerShot A200 has a bright F2.8 lens, ensuring your pictures are always clear and sharp, and the latest intelligent three-point AiAF focusing system (artificial intelligence auto focus) means the subject is always in focus wherever they are in the frame - so you don't have to be an expert to get great results. The PowerShot A200 is not just a stills camera, you can even capture outstandingly smooth video clips at 20 frames per second (fps) and play them back on the camera or a PC. Additional features allow more adventurous photography including white balance selection and Photo Effects option, which allows images to be taken in low sharpening, vivid color, neutral, sepia and black and white. There is also a Stitch Assist mode for taking panorama shots that can be merged using the supplied PhotoStitch application.

Going digital means easy connectivity between the camera and the PC's USB port for a new way to enjoy a whole new world of digital imaging. Canon's software suite for PC/Mac includes user-friendly Canon ZoomBrowser EX, PhotoStitch and PhotoRecord. This camera uses AA-size batteries, either alkaline (readily available worldwide) or rechargeable. The PowerShot A200 is supporting Exif Print.
