New Scene Modes deliver more creative freedom
The Canon PowerShot A3000 IS gives you even more creative freedom by including new modes made to get the kind of images people talk about. Super Vivid captures the colors you see with your mind's eye, saturating the scene with intense colors. Turn drab scenes into exciting compositions, when dull pinks blaze into brilliant fuchsia and off-yellows suddenly burn bright and hot. Even dark colors become richer with Super Vivid. Sunsets and floral scenes turn into bursts of color, and get your photo noticed.

Poster Effect combines several similar shades into one color, turning subtle gradations of color into eye-catching, scene-popping contrasts across your image for a unique artistic look.

Low Light mode for improved shooting in dim lighting
With an ISO of 500-3200, the Low Light mode takes the Canon PowerShot A3000 IS where no A-Series has gone before--into the shadows!
