Genuine Canon Lens - 28mm Wide-Angle 5x Optical Zoom Lens
With a Canon 5x optical zoom lens (6.1-30.5mm f/2.8-4.5) with a 35mm film equivalent of 28-140mm, and Optical Image Stabilizer Technology, the PowerShot G11 is suitable for almost anything including landscape, action, portrait and macro photography. It can focus from 0.4 inch (Macro mode) to infinity, and utilizes Canon's superlative TTL AF system. It sports Canon's exclusive Optical Image Stabilizer that detects and effectively cancels camera shake, perfect for shooting in dim lighting situations, indoors without a flash and at the end of the zoom range.

Canon's heritage as an imaging company dates back over 70 years to the company's founding in 1934. Since then, Canon has worked hard to perfect the process of creating extremely high-quality optics for its line of imaging products and is now the world's largest manufacturer of cameras and lenses. Canon is a global leader in optical design, with many advanced and original technologies that allow Canon users to achieve the sharpest images possible.

Canon DIGIC 4 Image Processor
DIGIC 4 Image Processor
Developed to speed up all operations between shooting and recording images, the DIGIC 4 Image Processor ensures that the PowerShot G11 operates as quickly and intuitively as possible. Thanks to the DIGIC 4 Image Processor, the implementation of new technologies like Face Detection Self-Timer and Intelligent Contrast Correction do not slow down the camera's performance, or drain excessive battery power, ensuring that no matter the shot, you're always ready to go.

DIGIC 4 is Canon's most advanced image processor ever, and builds on the superb performance of its DIGIC II and DIGIC III predecessors. As the "nerve center" of the camera, DIGIC 4 brings excellence to many areas. Images have brilliant color and smoother gradations, and performance is fast and responsive. DIGIC 4 also empowers some of Canon's newest and most advanced features including Blink Detection, Face Detection, Face Detection Self-Timer and ISO 3200 for images in low light with improved noise reduction. DIGIC 4 not only allows higher ISO settings for beautiful images in low light or fast action shots, but also reduces the resulting 'noise' to keep image quality at its best.

High Sensitivity System
Canon's High Sensitivity System is dramatically more sensitive than previous CCDs with the same number of megapixels. Working in concert with Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor and higher ISO speeds, Canon created the system to reduce noise, expand the dynamic range and deliver images with a new level of clarity and depth.
10.0 Megapixel CCD
10.0 megapixels of resolution give your photography incomparable depth and ensure that any section of any shot can be enlarged and cropped with no loss in quality when you edit the image and even in large printout. It creates crisp, clear 13" x 19" posters.
Canon PowerShot G11
RAW File Format, Simultaneous JPEG and RAW Image Capture
The PowerShot G11 offers you the choice to shoot in uncompressed RAW format. This gives you the highest possible resolution and offers no-compromise creative control in post-processing. When RAW images are transferred to a computer, they can then be edited using image adjustment programs like Canon's DPP software, meaning parameters like white balance, sharpness, color space and more can be applied post-shooting. The G11 can also be set to record both JPEG and RAW images simultaneously, providing JPEG image files that can be printed and shared immediately, while saving the RAW file for archiving and later use.

As for another advantage of shooting in RAW format, you can control noise that tends to occur when shooting high speed or long exposure (Adaptive Noise Control level between 0 and 10). The RAW images can be sharper than JPEG images. With RAW files, no matter what setting is used for a shot, parameters such as color balance, noise reduction, exposure and sharpness can be revisited and changed on a computer screen. The G11 is designed to speedily process image data, capturing both JPEG and RAW images simultaneously so each image is saved quickly and the camera is ready to capture another shot right away. You can enjoy image quality and performance on par with professional digital SLR cameras without the bulk.

Optical Image Stabilizer
Camera shake is common when shooting in low light and at long focal lengths, and can result in blurred images. The PowerShot G11 is equipped with an advanced Optical Image Stabilizer that uses sensors to detect camera shake and signal precise lens shifts that effectively cancel it. This technology allows the G11 to take excellent-quality images in many more situations -- outdoors at dusk, inside without a flash, anytime when lighting conditions are not ideal.

The PowerShot G11's Lens-Shift type optical image stabilization system is based on advancements made in the development of Canon's EF lenses and video lenses. Unlike electronic or digital image stabilization systems that typically degrade image quality, the PowerShot G11 digital camera's lens shift-type preserves maximum optical performance while providing up to three stops of shake correction in shutter speed equivalent.

Canon PowerShot G11
2.8" PureColor Vari-Angle LCD Monitor With Wide Viewing Angle
The PowerShot G11's 461,000 pixel 2.8-inch PureColor LCD II features great contrast and color reproduction, which greatly increases the viewing angle for composing shots above or below the head. On the face of the LCD, there is a protective cover finished with multiple coatings to prevent smudging, scratches and reflection. The LCD screen offers a tremendous live preview of your image with all shooting data displayed. It even offers a real-time histogram to help fine-tune exposure and it can display the camera's ISO, aperture and shutter speed. The Vari-Angle LCD screen swings out, permitting the user to compose shots from virtually any position, such as over-the-head or under the knees.
Advanced Face Detection AF/AE/FE/WB Technology With Face Detection Self-Timer
Your most cherished image often feature faces, and Canon's advanced Face Detection Technology gives every face its best chance to shine. With Canon's Advanced Face Detection AF/AE/FE/WB function, the G11 can detect, lock on, and track up to 35 human faces in a scene. It can even detect profiles. The face detection algorithm automatically prioritizes and selects faces (based on Canon's Intelligent Scene Analysis/iSAPS technology). It will then optimize the focus, exposure, white balance and flash to help ensure the best possible results for even easier picture taking moments. The result is flattering portraits and group shots where all of the subjects are in clearer focus and accurately exposed.

Face Detection Self-Timer waits for the photographer to get on-camera before it takes the shot. For instance, to include photographer's face in a group shot, there's no need to rush in. Just put the camera on a stand or tripod, and specify Face Self-Timer, and the camera will wait for the photographer's face to get on-camera before it takes the shot. Face Detection AF finds faces, tracks them as you frame your shot, then delivers perfect focus. Face Detection AE makes all your group shots better by concentrating exposure on your subjects' faces, not their clothes or the background. Face Detection FE adjusts the flash exposure based on the location of the faces in the frame. Face Detection WB detects the faces in the shot and concentrates auto white balance on them, for the best possible skin tones.

Servo AF
One of the most important new features made possible by the DIGIC 4 image processor is Servo AF, which is a form of continuous focus tracking for moving subjects. By pressing the shutter button halfway, the camera can track subject movement up to the instant of exposure, resulting in sharper photographs.
Canon PowerShot G11
Intelligent Contrast Correction
DIGIC 4 also makes possible the i-Contrast (Intelligent Contrast Correction) system, which controls the compensation level in pixel units to brighten dark areas while leaving bright areas unchanged for better images where the main subject is dark, and more natural transition.
Motion Detection Technology
Canon's Motion Detection Technology makes it easier than ever to capture a clear, sharp image every time. As you compose your photos and snap away, it automatically optimizes ISO settings based on change of brightness and frame interval information, and motion detected by Optical Image Stabilizer, Face Detection, AE function and AF technology. All you need is to set High ISO Auto mode and the result is stunning photos with every shot.
ISO 3200 Sensitivity, Low Light Mode and Auto ISO Shift
The PowerShot G11 employs a newly-developed, 10.0 Megapixel High Sensitivity System by combining a powerful CCD sensor and Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor. Thanks to this technological advancement, the G11 is dramatically more sensitive than cameras with identical megapixel counts, and delivers spectacular images with minimal noise. Increased sensitivity demands a higher ISO speed, and the PowerShot G11 delivers with a new maximum setting of ISO 3200. Blur and camera shake are notably reduced for the ultimate in sharpness and clarity. In addition, a new Low Light mode lets you capture images in an astonishing range of conditions. The camera automatically adjusts the ISO speed from ISO 320 to ISO 12800 in relation to ambient brightness, subject movement and camera shake.

While sensitivity should in general be kept as low as possible for maximum image quality, too low a setting can cause camera shake and blurry photos. Auto ISO Shift instantly maximizes sensitivity for the given light, either automatically or at the push of a button. It minimizes camera shake, without the need to change the setting manually. The feature keeps you in creative control, allowing you to specify parameters for an ISO shift, or be notified when sensitivity is adjusted automatically.

Advanced Red-eye Correction
Red-eye Correction provides three options for removing red-eye from subjects in flash pictures. The Red-eye Correction during shooting actually identifies and corrects red-eye in human subjects as pictures are taken. The G11 can be set to automatically detect and correct red-eye during image playback. You can manually locate any red eyes in a scene during image playback on the LCD screen, and command the camera to remove them.
9-point AiAF and FlexiZone AF/AE
In fully automatic modes, the camera defaults to a 9-point AiAF system that evaluates a much larger percentage of the picture area than the 3-point system used in earlier models. This makes it easier and quicker for the camera to detect the main subject, even when it is considerably off-center. The PowerShot G11 offers manual focus in addition to a full range of autofocus options. FlexiZone AF allows you to move a single AF point around the frame. Continuous shooting AF freezes moving subjects in their tracks and allows you to manually focus without changing the mode.
Canon iSAPS Technology
Over the past 70 years, Canon has accumulated a vast amount of photographic data and know-how and used it to create some of the most innovative camera products in the marketplace. Now, using that same data and know-how, Canon has developed an exclusive technology called iSAPS (Intelligent Scene Analysis based on Photographic Space) that can predict certain camera settings such as focusing distance, exposure and optimum white balance based on zoom focal length, overall light level and tonal distribution data. Canon refers to this collective data as "Photographic Space." By incorporating iSAPS technology into its PowerShot line, the cameras can analyze a scene just before the image is made and in doing so, increase the speed and precision of the camera's autofocus, auto exposure and auto white balance.
27 Shooting Modes, Including Aperture and Shutter Priority
The Canon PowerShot G11 offers a wide variety of shooting modes to optimize the camera's performance based on user preferences or shooting conditions. These modes include:
