 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. 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.
A New "G"eneration in Compact Power! Massive 7.1 Megapixel Performance,
Canon Reliability. The 7.1-megapixel Canon PowerShot G6 is the successor
to last year's popular PowerShot G5 and is over 10% smaller. The G6 features 12
shooting modes and a new ergonomic design with all of the key controls falling
under the fingertips of the right hand, which wraps around a comfortable
rubberised grip. The clear, anti-reflective vari-angle color LCD is now 2.0-inch
display. The G6 also offers simultaneous RAW and JPEG recording, with selectable
JPEG file resolution, improved image quality, up to 55% faster AF speed than its
predecessor and the start-up time is improved by approximately 30%.
The CCD Quality Makes The Difference. The 7.1 Megapixel CCD sensor
delivers the high resolution expected of a camera in this class, allowing photo
prints beyond A3 in size with plenty of resolution for post-capture cropping.
The fast f2.0 4x optical zoom lens (35-140mm equivalent in 35mm format) has been
optimised to the image sensor's requirements.
All New Focus Techology.
Canon's 9-point AiAF delivers automatic, accurate focusing even with off-center
subjects. The enhancement of the G6's focussing system means single and continuous
AF speeds have been improved by 45% and 55% respectively . FlexiZone AF/AE allows
users to specify the particular spot in the frame from which to focus and meter
– ideal for creative compositions – and focus bracketing takes extra shots focused
in front of and behind the subject.
Enhanced Expsure Control For Breathtaking Realism And Detail.
Users have a choice of 12 exposure modes including Auto, Program AE,
full manual, aperture and shutter priority modes, 2 Custom modes, Portrait and
Landscape modes to control depth of field, a Night Scene mode with slow sync
flash speed to maintain both background and foreground detail. Stitch Assist
works in 5 modes to enable precise alignment of up to 26 images for panorama and
poster shots, merged later with PhotoStitch software. 3 minute video clips with
sound can be recorded in movie mode, or up to 30 seconds at VGA resolution.
Photo effects include sepia, vivid color, black and white, neutral and low
sharpening. The vari-angle 2.0” color LCD monitor rotates fully to allow for
shooting with the camera close to the floor or high in the air. The display
automatically shows a mirror image for easy self portraits. 2x to 10x
magnification playback allows fast, detailed image review to confirm focus
accuracy. A wide range of accessories further expands the capabilities,
versatility and creative potential of the camera. A 0.7x wide converter and 1.75
tele converter cover a 10x zoom range of 24.5 – 245mm (35mm equivalent). True
macro photography is available with a 58mm close up lens and professional Macro
Ring Lite MR-14EX or Macro Twin MT-24EX flash units. The G6 offers full support
of Canon’s extensive EX series Speedlite flash units, including the new
range-leading For photo prints without the PC, the G6 is directly connectable to
all PictBridge compliant and Canon Direct Print printers.
