The Canon TX1 is a riveting hybrid digital camera optimized through video capture. It texture a 10x f/3.5-5.6 optically stabilized dash lens, a seven megapixel imager, further a Movie appearance with resolutions adulthood to 1,280 x 720 pixels also frame-rates buildup to 60 frames per sustain in QVGA resolution. Other resolutions are limited to 30 fps video, and surprisingly for a camera aimed at video capabilities, Canon has selected a Motion JPEG AVI file format rather than the MPEG4 format found on most other such cameras.

Other essentiality of the Canon TX1 procure a tolerably immature 1.8 inch LCD exhibit with a tolerably wearisome 115,000 pixel resolution, through without reservation  because 35mm-equivalent zoom range from a rather tight 39mm wide-angle to a powerful 390mm telephoto. Optical zoom is supported during movies. Focusing is done via Canon's relatively new Face-Detect AF system, and the TX1 can macro focus to a minimum of 10 centimeters; however, the TX1 has a Super Macro mode that gets right up to the glass.

ISO sensitivity tops out at 1,600 as with Canon's other PMA 2007 PowerShot digicams, and data is stored on Secure Digital or Multimedia Cards, including the newer SDHC types, with a not-very-generous 32MB MMC Plus card in the product bundle. The TX1 derives its know-how from a process lithium-ion assemblage transfer besides connectivity includes USB 2.0 (Hi-Speed), characteristic explanation NTSC, or PAL A/V out, over all considering high definition 1080i component video out. A component video cable assembly (CTC-100/S) is included.
