Powershot G7, Canon has again deliver one of the best camera in town.


Canon has finally announced the long-awaited new G series compact to replace the G6 (launched August 2004). The $550 PowerShot G7 features a new Digic III processor, 10 megapixel (1/1.8-inch) CCD and a 6x (35-200mm equiv.) image stabilized zoom lens. The G7 also sports a hot shoe, face detection software and ISO settings up to 1600. Disappointingly what it doesn't have is a raw mode, which appears to have been completely dropped by Canon for its compact models - presumably to protect the sales of entry-level digital SLRs.

Features includes:
10.0 Megapixels
6x optical zoom with optical Image Stabilizer
DIGIC III and iSAPS
Face Detection AF/AE
2.5" LCD screen
ISO 1600 ISO and Multi Control Dials
25 shooting modes
Digital Tele-Converter and Safety Zoom
