BETTER HOLIDAY PHOTOS? Here’s how

It’s time to ditch your mobile phone and use a Digital Compact Camera to capture your best holiday memories

Stunningly close: Digital Compact Camera with 30x zoom will succeed where phone cameras will fail

You’ve just spent a few thousand dollars on an exotic destination filled with interesting food, people and landscape. Of course, you’d want to capture it all in photos.

But your phone camera just isn’t giving you the photo quality your holiday deserves!

Upgrade Your Travel Photos

With a quality Digital Compact Camera, you’ll capture great photos with little additional weight. Take the Canon PowerShot SX400 IS for instance. At less than $250, it is lightweight, making it easy to travel with, yet it comes complete with heavyweight features.

The best part about the Canon PowerShot SX400 IS is its zoom function. It can magnify distant objects by a whopping 30x! This is equivalent to a 720mm lens on a DSLR! In real world terms, you can capture any scenery from panoramic shots to zooming into minute statues on the façade of Notre Dame.

Or perhaps, you want to capture a close-up of the full moon rising over the horizon. While your phone camera will disappoint you, the Digital Compact Camera with the 30x zoom will give you the stunning shot you yearn for.

Steady On With Image Stabilization

With a zoom this powerful, you need to be steady. That’s why the hand grip is essential to give you a solid hold on the camera.

To reduce shaking, the Canon PowerShot SX400 IS has a built-in anti-shake function. The technology behind it is supremely sophisticated but, simply put, the camera has a very smart computer inside, which monitors motion, to reduce the chance of blurry photographs.

Star in Your Own Movie

Photos are great but sometimes shooting videos is better. This is especially true for performances or action scenes. The Canon PowerShot SX400 IS brings all its zooming and image-stabilizing powers to your high-definition video.

So before you hop on the plane, make sure you’re carrying a Digital Compact Camera to record your dream holiday!

PHOTO TIPS

DO zoom into the local people’s faces and catch their expressions. With Canon PowerShot SX400 IS’s ultra-zoom, you can be far away and still capture expressions.
DO use a small tripod or simply place the camera on a table or anything stable for very low light photos.
DO shoot HD video and narrate into the camera to make your captured holiday memories more interesting.
