Canon PowerShot PICK PTZ Camera (White)

Capturing moments is important. But, it's also not always easy. Being the family photographer often requires you to pause the moment, ask everybody to pose, make sure everyone is in the frame, and even if all that goes well the person behind the camera doesn't get to be in the picture. Canon PICK changes all this and more. By ensuring that you record experiences as they happen organically, and genuinely. No posing, no pausing, just candid memories that can last forever.

PICK's unique algorithm has been years in the making, with a dedicated app to get the image just right. It will automatically search for faces and smiles while adjusting the composition of the frame with its Pan, Tilt, Zoom (PTZ) mechanism. The camera captures and records moments while you're enjoying them and you don't have to do anything, no timers, no clicking, no posing, just living in the moment.

Introducing your own personal photographer

When you want to capture life's precious moments, but also want to be in them, the PowerShot PICK is ideal - capturing natural expressions following the action and automatically framing people intelligently and creatively.

Smile Tracking and Automatic Filtering

Using a unique algorithm that was developed over the years by Canon, the PowerShot PICK will automatically search for faces of people nearby once it is switched on, adjusting the composition of the shot and shoot based on facial information with its pan, tilt and zoom (PTZ) mechanism.

The intelligent technology behind the PowerShot PICK means that it can automatically shoot various scenes where people are smiling, with a variation of compositions. Subsequently, recommended scenes will be filtered from the many images taken, making it even easier to select and decide which images you would like to keep and share, saving time and effort.

Portable, Compact, and Lightweight

Weighing only approximately 6 oz (including the microSD card) and measuring under 3.3” x 2.5” in size, the PowerShot PICK can be carried along for use almost anywhere. The PTZ mechanism has a pan direction of maximum approximately ±170 degrees, tilt direction of a maximum approximate of 110 degrees and is capable of up to a maximum of 12x zoom, through a combination of a 3x optical zoom and a 4x digital zoom.

The PowerShot PICK also has a wide-angle coverage of 19mm (in 35mm format equivalent), allowing a large group of people to be included within the scene and it works well in small enclosed areas. This allows users to place the camera at an easy angle to allow continuous footage shooting without having to worry about adjusting the camera. Up to 5 hours of video recording through the camera's built-in battery allows the camera to be portable and can be used anywhere. Also, it can be charged via its USB-C port.

Tracking and Image Stabilization (IS)

Using Canon's Nano USM technology, the PowerShot PICK is capable of silent and high-speed tracking, automatically tracking the subject so that the face stays within the angle of view even when the subject moves. The camera effectively suppresses blur by mechanically controlling the rotation angle of the lens barrel, ensuring the user will be able to get the clearest shots available without having to be physically present to ensure that the camera is focusing on the right targets, saving an incredible amount of time and providing tremendous efficiency when it comes to capturing your most memorable moments.

Remote Shooting & Playback

Manual capture of photos and videos is possible by using your connected smartphone or tablet as a remote to control the movement and angle of view of the PowerShot PICK.

Images shot by the PowerShot PICK can be previewed on the app, which will also highlight the best recommendation from the gallery. Save your favorite shots to your smart device, or generate a highlight video* within the app.
