    Top comment

    "By no means do I expect it to measure up to my DSLR but I find it much poorer than my Canon G7X Mk II. Big difference in megapixels (12 vs 20) but the Olympus exhibits a lot more noise, even at low ISO, and lacks sharpness. ...This is a light weight, easy to use, high quality camera. It takes photographs like professional cameras except you click and shoot. ...Tough Water Resistant Digital Camera, 12 MP"

    Product Description

    Capturing moments is important. But, it’s also not always easy. Being the family photographer often requires you to pause the moment, asking everybody to pose, making sure everyone is in the frame, and even if all that goes well the person behind the camera doesn’t get to be in the picture. Canon PICK changes all this and more. By ensuring that you record experiences as they happen organically, genuinely. No posing, no pausing—just candid memories that can last forever.PICK's unique algorithm has been years in the making, with a dedicated app to get the image just right. It will automatically* search for faces and smiles while adjusting the composition of the frame with its Pan, Tilt, Zoom (PTZ) mechanism. The camera captures and records moments while you’re enjoying them and you don’t have to do anything, no timers, no clicking, no posing—just living in the moment.
