Notes & Features: Optical SteadyShot, Touchscreen LCD, iAuto, Sweep Panorama. Available in Silver, Black, Purple, Green and Violet. LCD panel tilts upwards for viewing from in front of the camera, and since this blocks the main shutter button, the camera includes secondary shutter button beneath LCD panel on back of main body for self-portraits. LCD has a touch panel overlay and includes a touch shutter function, providing a third shutter release method.
