The Japanese camera maker has also announced Canon PowerShot N digital camera, which is an interesting addition to its PowerShot line-up. The PowerShot N comes with what Canon dubs as a Creative Shot. Creative Shot is a new imaging mode that intuitively analyses an image and automatically creates a series of five artistic photos of the original with varying composition, lighting and colour for an array of options and to help users in getting the best shot every time.

From the specifications point of view, the Canon PowerShot N features a 8x optical zoom and a 28mm wide-angle lens, packaged with a 12.1- megapixel High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor and DIGIC 5 Image Processor. This camera is also capable of capturing videos in 1080p Full HD resolution. It comes with a dedicated movie button.

Canon PowerShot N also has a built-in Hybrid Auto and Face ID systems, which enables the camera to automatically recognise and focus on familiar faces. Canon PowerShot N is expected to hit the shelves by April 2013 for an estimated retail price of $299.99. It will be available in two colour options white and black.

"An ever-increasing number of internet users continue to post their own photos and videos online," said Yuichi Ishizuka, executive vice president and general manager, Imaging Technologies & Communications Group, Canon U.S.A. "The new PowerShot N opens up a new dimension of photographic expression, helping people express their personal style and creative flair with powerful innovative Canon technologies."

Apart from this, there has been an addition of two new cameras in its point and shoot range with Canon PowerShot A2600 and A1400.
