    Technology and creativity in perfect balance.

    Feels great
    From the minute you pick it up, the PowerShot G6 inspires confidence. All key controls fall immediately under your fingertips and the rubberised grip makes the camera feel like an extension of your hand. Flip out the large 2.0" vari-angle LCD and you are ready for anything.

    Resolution to burn
    The 7.1 Megapixel resolution allows detailed prints in excess of A3 size and prints without loss of detail from tight, post-shoot crops.

    Precision lens
    Great in low light conditions, the fast f/2.0 - f/3.0 lens has a versatile focal length range of 7.2 to 28.8mm (35-140mm equivalent in 35mm format).

    Wealth of options
    An SLR-style Mode Dial allows you to call up any one of 12 different shooting modes. Two custom modes can be used to save and retrieve your favourite combination of settings.

    High-performance
    With incredible speed, Canon's purpose-built DIGIC processor executes the complex algorithms required for accurate image rendering. The result is superb quality images, more accurate focusing and metering, longer battery life and fast start-up times.

    iSAPS Technology
    Like a built-in photographer's assistant, iSAPS improves auto exposure, auto white balance and auto focus accuracy by monitoring settings and readings, and using these to interpret the shooting situation.

    Stay focused
    When you need to be fast, the 9-point AiAF focuses quickly on your subject, even when it is off-centre. For full control, FlexiZone AF/AE allows scrolling and selection of the auto focus point from across the frame.

    Room to grow
    For professional lighting results, the PowerShot G6 is compatible with all Canon Speedlite flash units. Optional converter lenses further extend the camera's range.

    Image Management
    For total post-shoot control, the PowerShot G6 supports simultaneous JPEG and lossless RAW image recording for both flexibility and flawless 'digital negatives'. ZoomBrowser (Windows) and ImageBrowser (Mac) help manage your work, while ArcSoft PhotoStudio provides extensive image editing and manipulation options. Share shots and create online photo albums with 100MB of free space through CANON iMAGE GATEWAY.

    Direct printing
    Your PowerShot G6 is fully PictBridge and Canon Direct Print compliant, allowing it to connect and print directly to any compatible photo printer.

I've been a long time user of Canon's first G-series digital camera, the G1 and I've certainly been impressed with its performance over the years, despite the fact that its 3.34megapixel CCD has now been eclipsed by the rest of the ‘G' range. But as many...
