Unboxing: Canon PowerShot ELPH 300HS / IXUS 220HS

For about a year, I have been enjoying the ability to upload YouTube videos in high definition. Granted, I was recording in 720p, I was impressed with the quality of my Flip MinoHD. Alas, the time has come for me to desire more in a camera. My knowledge in photography/videography is constantly growing thanks to my major in Broadcasting and the Flip began to feel limiting.

Enter the Canon PowerShot ELPH 300HS (aka the IXUS 220HS in UK/EU). This small yet powerful point-and-shoot packs full 1080p HD video as well as manual ISO, white balance and 5x optical zoom controls in video mode. This camera also offers autofocusing while shooting in high def. With this impressive feature set at the consumer price of $249.99, this will be the perfect camera for many YouTubers. This is my unboxing and some test footage of this little gem!
