The power to capture every moment
Seen a great shot? Just turn on the S2000 and snap away. With the 3x optical zoom far away scenes can be brought into sharp focus, and because it's an optical zoom rather than digital you'll get excellent image quality even at high magnifications. Once you've taken a shot you're proud of, a resolution of 10.1 megapixels means you can make a quality poster print at up to A3 size, or crop the image without losing any of its crisp detail.

Perfect portraits
How many times have you missed that perfect moment with friends and family? Smile Shutter delays your camera shutter action until your subject has started smiling, making the S2000 ideal for party scenes and portrait shots. It has an adjustable smile threshold so you're not kept waiting too long, and you can change the setting from adults to children, and back again. This works alongside Face Recognition, which adjusts the camera's settings to make sure faces look sharp and clear, with natural skin tones. Put the technologies together and you've got beautiful portraits, whatever the location.

Simple, fuss-free shooting
Helpful auto features set you free to concentrate on catching life as it happens. If you're just getting started with a camera, Easy Shooting mode ensures it's a fun experience, with simplified controls and easy-to-read instructions. Intelligent Auto recognises scenes, lighting and faces and adjusts settings, so that wherever you are and whatever the situation, you'll get the best results possible. Make fuzzy pictures a thing of the past with Steady Shot, which reduces blurring when you're taking handheld shots in low-lit conditions. Trickier shots like twilight landscapes and backlit portraits are taken care of with Intelligent Scene Recognition. Choose from seven pre-set exposure modes and the S2000 will automatically alter aperture, shutter speed and colour balance so you get great results in a range of conditions.
