Responsive and stylish, the Canon PowerShot G11 Digital Camera represents the 9th generation of the PowerShot G-series and offers professionals and advanced amateurs superior control and imaging capabilities. The coupling of a 10 megapixel CCD sensor and Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor dramatically increases light sensitivity while reducing noise. High ISO 3200 capability makes it possible to capture critical shots even under poor lighting conditions. A 2.8" Vari-Angle LCD returns to the G-series allowing users to compose and review images at almost any angle.
Retro and ergonomic, the G11 features classic control dials to change the exposure mode, exposure compensation, and ISO. The "quick control" dial on the rear of the body mimics the design standard of Canon EOS SLR cameras. At just 1.9" thin and weighing about 12 ounces, the Canon PowerShot G11 offers the control of an SLR in the compact and easy to carry body of a point and shoot.
