Canon PowerShot G6  Digital Camera

A New "G"eneration in Compact Power!
This exciting successor in the high-performance G-Series takes a big step forward with a new optical system that optimizes the impressive 7.1-Megapixel CCD for crystal clear image quality. And while the camera is loaded with SLR-style functions and sports a 2-inch LCD monitor, it's more compact than the previous model!

Features:

  • Superior Resolution, Newly Optimized
    7.1 Megapixel CCD and Enhanced Optical Shooting System for Stunning Image Quality
    PowerShot G6 captures an amazing 7.1 megapixels of resolution to give even your largest prints rich, smooth detail and color. The CCD is optimized by a new optical system for superb image clarity.
  • Fast, Bright Zoom Unmatched in its Class
    Powerful 35-140mm (35mm equivalent) 4x Optical Zoom
    Experience an exceptionally powerful and responsive zoom with a fine-tuned drive mechanism that speeds nimbly from the wide-end to the telephoto end in under two seconds. The G6's f/2.0-3.0 zoom is unmatched among competing cameras in this class.
  • Designed for Comfortable, Convenient Shooting
    NEW Ergonomic SLR-style Grip and 2-inch LCD Monitor
    A new, ergonomically designed grip evokes the traditional comfort and secure hold of an SLR camera.
  • Canon Technology Ensures High Quality Images
    DiG!C Image Processor
    Canon's exclusive DIGIC Image Processor revolutionized how you shoot digital by allowing the camera to process images faster and improving the accuracy of the autofocus. DIGIC also reduces the effects on noise in your images.
    iSAPS Technology is an entirely new scene-recognition technology developed for digital cameras by Canon. Using an internal database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works with the fast DIGIC Image Processor to improve focus speed and accuracy, as well as exposure and white balance.
  • Perfect Focus, Anywhere in the Frame
    9-point AiAF for Precise, Accurate Focus
    9-point AiAF gives you unlimited flexibility in framing your shots your way. The system ensures that even far off-center subjects will be quickly and accurately focused.
  • Shoot in any Situation; Get Creative with Reliable Results
    12 EOS-based Shooting Modes plus Photo Effects, Super Macro Mode, Wide-area FlexiZone AF/AE and Spot Metering
    The camera's numerous shooting modes will satisfy both beginners and advanced photographers. Everyday shooting situations are made easy with preset parameters, and creativity is encouraged with plenty of flexibility for the user control. Shooting Modes:
    Custom Mode - Define and store your own settings to achieve the effects you prefer.
    Manual - The user controls every aspect of the shot, including aperture and shutter speed.
    Aperture Priority - The user defines the aperture, and the camera chooses the corresponding shutter speed.
    Shutter Speed Priority - The user selects the shutter speed, and the camera finds the appropriate aperture. With slow exposure times, Canon’s noise reduction system activates to ensure low image noise.
    Program - Similar to auto, but user has access to exposure compensation features.
    Auto - Shoot freely while the camera sets all parameters.
    Portrait - The camera chooses a large aperture, focusing the subject and creating beautiful background blur.
    Landscape - A small aperture creates greater depth-of-field for sweeping scenery shots.
    Night Scene - For impressive sunset or nightlife shots, the camera properly exposes the background and uses slow-sync flash for the subject.
    Stitch Assist - Perfectly align sequential shots to create seamless panoramas.
    Movie - Choose one of three movie quality modes to create clips with sound up to three minutes long. Edit and replay your movies right on camera.
    Photo Effect Mode - Advanced creative effects made easy:
    Vivid Color yields vibrant shots with dramatic contrast.
    Neutral Color produces images of subtle, elegant tonality.
    Low Sharpening creates a soft-focus filter effect.
    Sepia recreates the look of vintage photographs.
    Black & White delivers enhanced clarity and is especially useful for shooting text.
    Custom lets you create and store your own special effect.
    Super Macro Mode - Shoot spectacular close-ups as close as 2 inches from your subject.
    Wide-Area FlexiZone AF/AE
    Move the AF point freely around in the frame, without recomposing the shot.
    Spot Metering - This light-metering mode lets you link exposure compensation to the AF point or the center of the frame.
  • Quality Movies and Advanced Print Options
    VGA-quality Movies, ID Photo Print*, Movie Print*
    PowerShot G6 lets you record smooth VGA-quality movies (640 x 480 pixels at 10 frames/second) up to 30 seconds long. Two additional movie quality modes are also available.
    ID Photo Print is a great convenience, offering an easy way to create ID photos in 28 sizes to match typical ID-photo requirements for many countries.
    Movie Print lets you print multiple, successive stills from a recorded movie on a single sheet. The number of stills printed is automatically chosen to correspond with the paper size.
