A Face ID function also helps to capture the perfect exposure and focus for portraiture using a series of pre-registered faces. Smooth Skin and Soft Focus scene modes continue to develop portraiture by helping to diminish blemishes and adding a smoothing glow to your subjects.

Comments about PowerShot ELPH 530 HS Digital Camera (White):
The camera was good overall, but. The touch screen sensibility is very low. I tried very hard just. On. Setting up the date and time for the camera because the touchscreen did not sense well on where I was touch. But the overall quality is good. I would recommend it to a friend.

Comments about PowerShot ELPH 530 HS Digital Camera (Black):
I have few Canon cameras, 7D is big not so convenient in carrying with you all the time. Ixus 65 is very good, but can't compare with this one. it's very good for video as well. the only short coming is the battery is too smaller and won't last as long as the Ixus 65. when you sell this products if can provide one spare battery, then I don't need to worry running short of battery.

Comments about PowerShot ELPH 530 HS Digital Camera (White):
I am a semi pro photographer that bought this for when I don't feel like carrying an SLR.. like on vacation. I already have a Canon Vixia HF20 to carry around, but stills on it only run 3mp. Its a good little camera with LOTs of features... so if you are just going to point and shoot, buy a less expensive camera.
Pros: Lots of function, WiFi transfers work great
Cons: The touch screen requires way too much pressure to make it work.... which kind of makes the "Touch to shoot" option useless. Lots of function - for those wanting a simple camera this is going to create confusion. It gets REAL grainy at the max zoom - at least for me.
