Quality.
With PowerShot A70 and A60, you'll capture spectacular images
right away. Vivid, radiant, sharply detailed images...not just better
than every other camera in this class, but equal to those of
higher-level cameras. How? Canon's advanced ≥ imaging
processor, new technology that revs up the performance of the
cameras' powerful 3.2 megapixel (A70) and 2.0 megapixel (A60)
CCDs. The cameras also feature fine Canon 3x optical zoom lenses,
digitally powered to 10x (A70) and 7.5x (A60), and futuristic
iSAPS technology for unparalleled precision. Sophisticated yet
simple autofocus systems give you fast, accurate
focus, no matter where your subject falls in the
frame, and whether you're shooting horizontally
or vertically.
