Question: Does anyone know hoe to do this feature on a cannon PowerShot SD790 IS!?

Many, if not all, of the CANON point and shoots do have a "feature" called My Colors or something like that to do this!. Try reading your owner's manual!. It tells you how to do it there!.

You have to do this in post- heres how on photo shop
go to Layer - Duplicate Layer

Click OK

Then go to Image - Adjustments - Hue / Saturation

Drag the Saturation slider all the way to the left to make the photo black and white!.

Click OK

Then get the ERASER tool from the tool box on the left side of the screen!. It is usually the next tool under the clone stamp tool!. Just hover your mouse over the tool, and it will say Eraser!.

When you have selected the Eraser, go up to the Brush options box at the top of the screen, and click on the downfacing arrow!. Set the Hardness of the brush to 100% so you will have accurate control of selection!.

Erase away any black and white from where you want the color to be revealed!.

When done go to
Layer - Flatten Image

Then just do a Save As to wherever you want to save the photo!.

That is not a feature of the camera, but rather post processing with some software like photoshop or gimp!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
