Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor
The latest-generation Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor brings phenomenal increases in
processing speed and power. Improved chip architecture and algorithms deliver greatly
expanded functionality with further refinement in image quality. Improved noise reduction
produces clearer images when shooting in low light at high ISO speeds. Enhanced i-Contrast
performance adjusts differences between light and dark areas to achieve even more natural-
looking results. The faster processing speed also results in faster continuous shooting capability
while maintaining full image quality. The DIGIC 5 Image Processor also makes possible a new,
highly advanced automatic white balance system. Whereas conventional white balance makes
an overall adjustment based on a single type of light source, the new Canon Multi-Area White
Balance analyzes several areas of the image to determine whether different adjustments are
needed, for example, for the main subject and the background.
