Talk:Canon PowerShot S2 IS

The S2 IS does indeed have stereo sound for video capture, contrary to what has been posted. This is evidenced by Canon's product page for the camera, currently at this url. --Jmeden2000 19:44, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sensor?

What on earth is that sensor size supposed to read? It says 1/2.5 in CCD -- that's certainly not 1x2.5 in, if it's 1/2 x .5 ... that doesn't make sense either. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.197.31.27 (talk) 20:16, August 29, 2007 (UTC)

It's 1/(2.5), which is .4 inches. See http://www.dpreview.com/news/0210/02100402sensorsizes.asp Pmbarros 15:52, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Correct. For no adequately explored reason (other than historical ones that really don't matter in the consumer market) sensor sizes are given in fractions of an inch rather than the far more sensible mm. 86.132.141.139 (talk) 18:55, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Shutter type

Shutter in S2 IS, is Mechanical shutter + electronic shutter as you can see in its specs: http://www.canon.co.jp/imaging/pss2is/spec-e.html, or observing it in action if you own one, as I do. --85.61.27.60 (talk) 19:23, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
