Does anyone know this

I want to know the difference between the Powershot HS and IS

Example The ELPH 115 IS and the ELPH 340 HS

The IS is standing for Image Stabilisation, they all have this even though it is not in the name.

HS stands for high sensitivity, I did think apart from anything else, that all HS models use the 1/2.3 BSI-CMOS sensor and the non HS use a 1/2.3 CCD or CMOS sensor, but when I look up the specs for the two models you mention this theory is not the case, assuming the tecnical specs on this site are correct.

So maybe there is more to this that someone else can explain.
