Product Description:
The legendary Canon Powershot G6 was a great success in the world of digital photography. This is why Canon has now released its successor, the PowerShot G7, which takes over and keeps the legend alive! Underneath its professional yet stylish design, the PowerShot G7 is full of technological features! Thanks to a 10-megapixel resolution and a powerful 6x optical zoom, you can take photos in larger formats, capturing even the tiniest details. You can also enjoy excellent colour quality thanks to its DIGIC image processor. Its optical image stabiliser compensates for any vibrations, allowing you to use the camera in poor lighting conditions without the risk of blurring. The PowerShot G7 is also compatible with a number of Canon lenses, enabling it to considerably reduce the effects of ghosting on your photos and almost all chromatic aberration. Furthermore, it has an increased sensitivity of ISO 1600, which focuses and sharpens your images. This technology also allows the camera to detect up to 9 faces within one frame, with the best focus and exposure options possible. The PowerShot G7 takes its inspiration from traditional cameras as it incorporates a multi-control scroll and a personalised shortcut button. With a 2.5? LCD screen, this camera is a real pleasure to use.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Good throw away camera
Canon PowerShot G7 purchased on 9th June 2007 total failure october 2008. New circuit board required. Repair bill will be £265.00. I contacted Canon to ask for a goodwill jesture only to be told no chance. The camera had very little use holidays etc.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Most versatile camera I've ever owned....
I have previously owned a Canon S70, S2IS and G6, and this camera is really like a combination of all three. It has the small size of the S70, the full manual options and ND filter of the G6, and the zoom/video quality/image stabilization of the S2 (well, almost).

I was originally reluctant to sell my G6 but I'm glad I did, as this camera cost me £100 less and is far more usable. Admittedly you lose the amazing F2.0 tack-sharp lens of the G6, but in return you get a camera which is half the size, twice as fast, and far easier to use in everyday situations. If they could have fitted the F2 elns into this body then that would have been nice, but then it would have needed a lens cap, bigger body and so on - basically the G6 was as ... Read More:



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Superb
I was looking at the G9 but then Amazon offered the G7 at a great price (£200) so I went for the G7.

This is an enthousiast's camera -- you need to spend some time looking at all the options, studying the manual and then setting up the camera for you before it delivers what you expect. I worked out which mode to choose, change the area for autofocus and set the camera to maximum resolution. Amazing photos. The camera has a very good flash with red-eye reduction which works!

Highly recommended if you don't need RAW which the G9 does, and if you can get the G7 at a good price. Digital cameras change so quickly these days and last year's model is usually superb yet at a reduced price.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic Camera
Good
Excellent resolution and respectable edge-to-edge sharpness across the zoom range... Classic 'rangefinder' styling looks great, fit & finish superb... Capable of very good results at lower ISO settings... ISO 200-400 usable for standard sized prints... Huge feature set... Face detect... AF a bit of a novelty but it is very effective for novice users... Real, usable photographic control... ISO dial on body and external access to all important controls... Bright, sharp screen that works well in bright light... Rugged, solid construction and excellent build quality... Useful 35-210mm focal length range... Effective image stabilization with 3 stop advantage... Fast and responsive performance overall... Optional lens adaptors... Flash ... Read More:



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good but I suspect not the best....
First, top marks to Amazon for getting this to me within a few days of ordering.

Next, this is/will not be the best camera you can get for your money. The G9 is available for for a few dollars more on the same site.

Also - I don't know yet if this counts as a fault but I too have a flickering LCD. This only occurs in certain artificial light conditions, strangely not under fluorescent light as per a previous reviewer. I'm considering living with it because, under all other light conditions including normal daylight all is fine.

The best bits - it's a great camera in terms of feel, appearance and features. Really easy to use, great quality and really good images. The retro look is just great.
