Newly added 4 fun filters to enhance the fun of printing
The new PIXMA Smart Home series support 4 fun filters, namely, fisheye, soft focus, toy camera and miniature effect. The fisheye effect is best for taking funny shots of pets and children; soft focus can soften skin tones; toy camera effect produces vignetting and color shift; miniature effect can simulate the look from a tilt-shift lens for a small-scale model look. Fun filter effect is easily applicable, simply install the bundled software disc and you can create unique and artistic effects effortlessly.

Enhanced Full HD Movie Print function for capturing the best images
All new printers are equipped with an upgraded full HD Movie Print function. With the use of bundled software, users can capture high quality prints from HD movie clips taken by Canon digital compact cameras or DSLR cameras*, and the printout images will be optimized automatically. Three new features are included: “Merges frames” function helps combine multiple clips and produce a composite of movements; “Movie clips index” with thumbnail scenes allows easy preview and image search; “Auto Frame Capturing” selects sharper and clearer frames automatically, ensuring the best possible image quality.

MG8270 and MG6270 are manufactured with a 6-color individual ink tank system that produces broader color gamut, delivering an outstanding color performance in both pictures and text. Also, a separate water-resistant pigment-based ink is added to render deeper blacks for stronger B/W document printing without smudges.
