G11

The G Series Comes Full Circle.

You asked, and Canon not only listened, but delivered big-time. Advanced amateurs who have overwhelmingly embraced the G Series will be delighted with the PowerShot G11, which features RAW mode for unlimited editing options, a 28mm wide-angle lens, and a 2.8-inch Vari-Angle PureColor System LCD. Add to that Canon’s new High Sensitivity System and high-speed ISO for incredible image quality, and Canon’s top-range compact digital camera is a truly groundbreaking successor.

G11 Outperforms my G10 in Low Light

Date: January 13, 2011

Pros: Superior Low-Light Pictures, G11- Even More Custom Shooting Modes Available, Tuff Well Constructed, Variety Of Output Jpeg Or Raw Or Both!

Cons: Liked Fixed 3″ Screen Of The G10, Size Is A Little Big,Would Like To See Gps

The G11 out performs my G10 in very low-light situations. I don’t have to use the flash as often thus I can squeeze off shots that I otherwise might be waiting for the flash to recycle. Ability not to distract subject with the use of the low light modes, non use of the flash once again. I am not a fan of the new viewing screen, I suppose if I shot more in movie mode I might become accustom to it. Once again though Canon has produced the best point and shoot on the market.
