SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following precautions should be observed when servicing. 1. Since many parts in the unit have special safety-related characteristics, always use genuine CANON replacement parts. Especially critical parts in the power circuit block should not be replaced with other makes. Critical parts are marked with ! in the schematic diagrams. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit. After servicing, see to it that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers, insulation papers shields are properly installed. After servicing, make the following leakage current checks to prevent the customer from being exposed to shock hazards. 4-1 Leakage Current Cold Check 1) Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the two prongs on the plug. 2) Measure the resistance value, with an ohmmeter, between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed metallic cabinet part on the equipment such as screwheads, connectors, control shafts, etc. When the exposed metallic part has a return path to the chassis, the reading should be between 1M and 5.2M. When the exposed metal does not have a return path to the chassis, the reading must be . 4-2 Leakage Current Hot Check 1) Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet. Do not use an isolation transformer for this check. 2) Connect a 1.5K 10 watt resistor, paralleled by 0.15F capacitor, between each exposed metallic parts on the unit and a good earth ground such as a water pipe, as shown in the figure below. 3) Use an AC voltmeter, with 1000/volt or more sensitivity, to measure the potential across the resistor. 4) Check all exposed metallic parts of the cover (Cable connection, Handle bracket, metallic cabinet. Screwheads, Metallic overlays, etc), and measure the voltage at each point. 5) Reverse the AC plug in the AC outlet and repeat each of the above measurements. 6) The potential at any point should not exceed 0.75V RMS. A leakage current tester (FLUKE MODEL : 8000A equivalent) may be used to make the hot checks. Leakage current must not exceed 0.5 milliamp. In case a measurement is outside of the limits specified, there is a possibility of a shock hazard, and corrective action must be taken before returning the instrument to the customer.

1 Development Background 1-1 Development Objectives Canon began offering the PowerShot A100/PowerShot A200 to consumers who want to enjoy a straightforward digital camera in the spring of 2002. With their excellent image quality, classy looks and advanced features that transcended their class, the 2-megapixel PowerShot A200 and the 1.2-megapixel PowerShot A100 offered consumers who wanted to enjoy a simple, easy-to-use digital camera complete satisfaction. Looking ahead to the 2003s market, however, we find that we must keep moving toward higher resolutions and keep enhancing movie features to maintain our advantage over our competitors. With this background in mind, we decided to introduce a new top-of-the-line model, the PowerShot A300, with approx. 3.2-mega camera effective pixels. The PowerShot A300 offers even better image quality, enhanced movie features and improved operability while maintaining the same fundamental design concept of the 2-megapixel PowerShot A200 and the 1.2-megapixel PowerShot A100. The new cameras goal is to have the best image quality and most advanced features of any camera in the entry-level class.

2 Features 2-1 High Image Quality -Approx. 3.2M camera effective pixel CCD (Total of Approx. 3.3M-pixels) The PowerShot A300 comes with a CCD sensor with approx. 3.2-mega effective pixels (Approx. 3.3 megapixels in total), which is similar to the IXY DIGITAL 320 sensor. The area of this CCD sensor chip has been reduced by a remarkable 39 percent from the previous 1/1.8-inch approx. 3.2-effective-megapixel CCD sensor (approx. 3.3 total megapixels) found on the PowerShot G1/S30. Figure 2-1 Chip relative area comparison However it achieves the equivalent performance to the previous sensor owing to improvement of the picture elements structure and the electronic charges drive method. -High resolution single-focus 5mm f/3.6 lens (35mm film equivalent : 33mm) The PowerShot A300 is equipped with the 5 mm, f/2.8 single-focallength lens used on the PowerShot A200/A100. The lens consists of 5 elements in 5 groups including one aspherical (single-sided) lens. Focusing is accomplished by a full sprocket method in which all five lenses move. The 35 mm equivalent focal length of the lens has become slightly wider 33 mm compared with 39 mm for the PowerShot A200/A100 due to the change in the screen size of the CCD sensor. This allows the camera to get more out Figure 2-2 Lens construction (Conceptual) of composite photos and landscape shots. For the same reason as the change in focal length, the maximum aperture has changed from f/2.8 to f/ 3.6.
- High definition and fast processing with the Digital Imaging Processor "DIGIC" The PowerShot A300 comes equipped with the "DIGIC"a digital imaging processor. DIGIC achieves enhanced high picture quality by improving signal processing algorithms as the successor of prior processor. Furthermore it saves power. The following three elements are the principle contributions to the PowerShot A300.

-High speed AF and high definition AE/AWB based on iSAPS technology Using Photographic Space information, the PowerShot A300 estimates the distance between the camera and the subject from the focal length (zoom position)* of the lens and the peripheral brightness when taking a photo. Furthermore, by adding the photo paramenters obtained with the previous photo, the scene the user is about to shoot is preanalyzed and pre-calculated. This method achieves faster AF and more precise, AE and AWB than ever before.
* The PowerShot A300 has no optical zoom
Figure 2-4
>iSAPS High-speed AF Using iSAPS technology, the cameras achieve fasror focusing speeds by optimizing the control of the AF scan range through a pre-analysis process to match the scene the user is about to shoot.
>iSAPS Intelligent AE/AWB Using iSAPS technology, the cameras achieve precise exposure and white balance through an algorithm optimized for the scene the user is about to shoot by analyzing the scene beforehand.
-High-precision white balance (Auto + Five preset positions + Custom) The PowerShot A300 adds custom white balance to the white balance functions (auto and five-position preset) . The custom white balance allows the user to record a desired white reference (usually a white piece of paper) beforehand under the shooting conditions (light sources) employing a camcorder or other device. This white reference data is stored in the camera and used. This function is useful when users cannot get the white balance they want in the auto mode or from one of the five presets when shooting under special light sources or when mixing two or more light sources. The custom white balance data is maintained even when the power is turned off and can be updated anytime by performing the sampling operation again.

2-2 Full Features -5-point AiAF and 1-point AF selectable The PowerShot A300 come with a 5-point AiAF , which increases the number of AiAF measurement zones from the previous three (PowerShot A200/A100) to five. This improved AiAF system makes precise focusing possible regardless of the position of the subject or the shooting orientation (vertical or horizontal). When focusing, the positions of the focused measurement zones are displayed in green (when two or more positions are in focus, all focused measurement zones are displayed). The cameras are also equipped with standard single center-point AF, enabling users to select the easiest AF function to suit the shooting conditions.
-Digital zoom function with continuously changing angle of view (Approx. 5.1x) The digital zoom magnification of PowerShot A300 enlarges to approx. 5.1x owing to employment of 3M-pixel CCD. It can adjust the field of view from 33mm to 168mm (35 mm film equivalent) Furthermore, several dozen image input positions are calibrated for the monitor display to ensure a smooth digital zoom of the image on the monitor display. The actual zoom position can be stopped in seven positions in consideration of practicability.
1-9
- Three types of metering function (evaluative metering, center-weighted average metering and spot metering) With the PowerShot A300, the metering modes of center-weighted average and spot are added to PowerShot A200/A100s evaluative. The center-weighted average metering measures light over the entire image and weights the sensitivity according to proximity to the center of the image; accordingly, this light metering emphasizes the center of the image. The spot metering, light is measured within a specific portion at the center of the image. - Total of 12 image quality modes (recording pixels (4) x compression (3) ) Since the number of CCD pixels has been increased to approx. 3.2 million camera effective pixels with PowerShot A300, there are now 4 possible settings for the number of recording pixels: Large, Medium 1, Medium 2, and Small. Since there are also 3 compression rates (Superfine, Fine and Normal), a total of 12 different combinations can be selected. -Settable display times for rec review (Off, 3 to 10 seconds) (Images can be erased during display) The PowerShot A300 is specified so that the image-display time* in rec review (confirmation of recorded image) can be set between 3 to 10 seconds in 1 second intervals. In this way, users can select a duration to suit their applications. Furthermore the shot image can be erased during display in rec review.
* Off can also be set
Large Medium Medium 2 Smal
- Direct Print function compatible (Card Photo Printers and Bubble Jet printers) The Direct Print function has been equipped to the PowerShot A300 so that high-picture-quality prints can be made easily by merely connecting the camera with the supplied cable to a Canon card photo printer (CP-100/10 ) or Bubble Jet printers supporting the Direct Print function. (Refer to 5-2 System diagram) Furthermore, the PowerShot A300 adds a trimming capability not found on the PowerShot A200/A100, which allows the user to expand and print an area of the image. After selecting Figure 2-7 Trimming screen the trimming mode, the section denoted by the trimming frame superimposed over the image displayed on the LCD monitor can be printed. The size of the frame can be adjusted in either 8 steps (when placed horizontally) or 5 steps (when placed vertically) with the zoom lever and the position can be moved with the cross buttons. When making card size prints, prints on full-size label sheets or eight-label sheets are possible. When connected to Bubble Jet printers, five paper sizes (L, 2L, postcard, A4 and credit-card) can be selected. For each of these, border, borderless, multiple copies, indexing and trimming options are available. And since the BJ 895PD and BJ 535PD printers, and new BJ printers released in the spring of 2003, support the Exif 2.2 standard, printing from the PowerShot A300 is automatically optimized for image quality.

-Sound memos of up to 60 seconds can be appended during replay When replaying images on the PowerShot A300, because a sound recording of up to 60 seconds can be appended to images, you can easily attach comments to images as desired after shooting. The recording format is WAVE (monaural).
- My Camera function (Customizeable of Start-up image, Start-up sound, Operation sound, Self -timer sound and Shutter sound on-camera content can be also created) The PowerShot A300 can customize start-up image, start-up sound, operation sounds, self-timer sound and shutter sound with the My Camera function from the Solution Disk included with the camera or from the My Camera Contents in the On-line photo service on the Canon Image Gateway*1 Web site accessible via ZoomBrowser EX/ImageBrowser. Also, images or sounds*2 captured with the camera itself can be used as camera contents.
*1 Only for the Japanese market. *2 The start-up sound, operation sound, self-timer sound and shutter sound can be recorded separately with the microphone.
- FAT12/FAT16 and FAT32 support In the near future, memoty cards with 2GB or more storage capacity will be released. The PowerShot A300 automatically uses FAT32*1/2 to format such memory cards. In addition, the PowerShot A300 automatically uses FAT12 or FAT16 to format memory cards under 2GB, depending on the storage capacity of the memory card.
*1 File Allocation Table *2 The memory card with 2GB or more storage capacity is not recognized by Canon digital cameras which were released before spring in 2002.

2-3 Fulfiled Movie Function -Three types of recording pixels (VGA/QVGA/QQVGA) for movie mode (VGA is high image quality ) The PowerShot A300 can record movie clips with audio at a rate of 15 frames per second in one of three recording pixels, VGA, QVGA or QQVGA. Furthermore, the newly developed camera-effective 3.2M-pixel CCD can read one vertical line in three, or approx. 520 lines per frame, thanks to a refinement in the electrode structure (charge-reading method). This enables the camera to record high-quality VGA size movies that not only 3Approx.1570 Approx.520 480 megapixel digital cameras, but also digital CCDs vertical pixels Recording pixels VGApixels cameras equipped with conventional interline type CCDs cant.
-Long movie recording with audio (internal microphone and speaker, max. of 3 minutes) The PowerShot A300 can record moving images at 15 frames per second along with audio in 3 formats, VGA (640 x 480 pixels), QVGA (320 x 240 pixels) and QQVGA (160 x 120 pixels). Because a method is employed that consecutively writes images that are temporary stored in the buffer to the CF card while recording, long continuous filming times are also achieved. In practice, if the write speed of the CF card is slower*1 than the speed to write an image to the buffer, the recording will stop when the buffer capacity is reached. Taking this circumstance into account, the specification limits the maximum recording time in VGA format to 30 sec.(When using FC-256MH) and both QVGA and QQVGA formats to three minutes. Even after 30 sec. or 3 minutes of elapsed filming, the PowerShot A300 allows the next recording to be resumed in less time than previous models. During filming, the values for the focus, exposure and white balance determined at the beginning are used continuously to the end of the recording. The storage time is also displayed on the LCD monitor during filming. The file is saved in AVI format, while the image is saved as Motion JPEG data and the audio data in WAVE format (monaural). Since the camera is equipped with an internal microphone and speaker, movie with sounds can be played on the camera without connecting to a computer.
*1 The write speed varies depending on the brand and capacity of the CF card. *2 If the free space on the CF card is less than the size of the recording, recording will stop just prior to the CF card reaching full capacity.

-Unwanted scenes can be deleted in movie replay mode (image and audio) The PowerShot A300 allows unwanted sections to be deleted in the movie replay mode. However, the sections that can be deleted are either from the start of the movie recording to an arbitrary point or from an arbitrary point to the end of the movie recording.
- First frame, Last frame, Next frame, Previous frame, Fast forward and Rewind available during movie replay During movie replay on the PowerShot A300, next frame, previous frame, fast forward and rewind operations that correspond to those of a VCR are provided. Instantaneous jumps to the start or end of a clip are also provided, which are impossible with tape media.

-1.5-inch amorphous silicon TFT LCD monitor with low power consumption back light
The PowerShot A300 uses the highly detailed, newly developed amorphous silicon TFT LCD monitor. Even outdoors, the visibility of this LCD monitor is greatly improved due to the efficient absorption of external light as a result of a special optical film. Furthermore, this allows the use of a weaker backlight than conventional monitors, thereby reducing power consumption.
-Slide type lens cover suggests easy operation The PowerShot A300 has moved from the PowerShot A200/A100 lens cover, which operates with a one-click (rotational) method to open and close, to a sliding style of cover. The sliding cover makes it easy to see how to open and close the cover as well as making it possible to check if the cover is open or closed at a glance.
1-14
-Convenient operation with cross-buttons and tact switchs The PowerShot A300 operation is straightforward and comfortable due to the use of a cross button. Also, by changing from the rubber switch buttons on the PowerShot A200/A100 to tact switch type buttons*, a subdued yet classy feel is given to the camera.
