The G Series
Comes Full Circle.

You
asked, and Canon not only listened, but delivered big-time. Advanced amateurs
who have overwhelmingly embraced the G Series will be delighted with the
PowerShot G11, which features RAW mode for unlimited editing options, a 28mm
wide-angle lens, and a 2.8-inch Vari-Angle PureColor System LCD. Add to that
Canon's new High Sensitivity System and high-speed ISO for incredible image
quality, and Canon's top-range compact digital camera is a truly groundbreaking
successor.
Image
Quality That's Better Than Ever.
New 10.0 Megapixel sensor coupled with Canon's DIGIC
4 Image Processor designed as the High Sensitivity System for improved low light
image performance.

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.
 
Creative
Power in Your Control.
Full range of shooting and recording modes including
RAW + JPEG for the ultimate creative control.

The PowerShot G11's RAW mode lets you shoot images without JPEG compression. It
gives you clearer images and complete creative control in editing. RAW images
are transferred directly to the computer where they can then be edited using
image adjustment software or a processing application to adjust your images as
you please. The camera can also be set to allow the simultaneous recording of
both RAW and JPEG images while shooting.

Also, with 26 Shooting Modes, you're ready for
whatever shot comes your way.
Shooting Modes
Advanced presets for the best possible photos under certain conditions.

AUTO
Recognizes typical shooting scenes, and detects faces, brightness, colors,
distance and movement without the need to switch modes.

P Program
Access advanced exposure compensation features while shooting mostly
automatically.

Av Aperture-priority
You define the aperture to either isolate your subject or have clarity
throughout the entire picture, and the camera will choose the corresponding
shutter speed.

Tv Shutter-priority
You select the shutter speed to stop or blur action, and the camera finds the
appropriate aperture. With slow exposure times, Canon's noise reduction system
activates to ensure low image noise.

Manual
The ultimate in creative control, you select both aperture and shutter speed
manually.

Portrait
The camera sets a large aperture, focusing the subject and artistically blurring
the background to make your subject "pop."

Landscape
For front to back sharpness, the camera sets a small aperture.

Custom
Define and store your own settings to achieve the effects you prefer.

Portrait
For high quality image capture in an amazing range of dimly-lit situations.

Quick Shot
The lens constantly autofocuses, avoiding any shutter lag.
Special Scene Modes

Sunset

Night Snapshot
Get natural-looking pictures with brighter backgrounds and subjects lit by
flash.

Kids & Pets
Reduced focusing time freezes fast-moving subjects, so you won't miss those
special shots.

Indoor

Foliage
Capture brilliant shots of autumn foliage, greenery and blossoms.

Snow
Shoot clear snow scenes without darkened subjects or an unnatural bluish tint.

Movie

up to 1 hour or 4GB per clip.

Color Accent
Choose to retain a single color in your image while other colors turn
monochrome.

Color Swap
Select a color and replace it with a color you specify for special effects.

Stitch Assist
Build awe-inspiring panoramas by neatly aligning sequential images.
Actual results may vary from examples shown
above.
Final image may vary depending on picture composition.
A World of
Advantages With Canon's New Technology.
DIGIC 4 Image Processor improves the overall camera
performance.

DIGIC 4 Image Processor
Canon's proprietary DIGIC Image Processors have long set its cameras apart from
the competition, and the new DIGIC 4 sets the bar even higher. Faster, more
accurate noise reduction delivers better image quality, even at high ISO speeds.

DIGIC 4 Image Processor
iSAPS Technology is an entirely original
scene-recognition technology developed for digital cameras by Canon. Using an
internal database of thousands of different photos, iSAPS works with the
advanced DIGIC 4 Image Processor to improve focus speed and accuracy, as well as
exposure and white balance.

Diagram of Photographic Space
A new Face Self-Timer automatically
detects an increase in the number of faces and makes the appropriate
adjustments. For instance, to include a photographer's face in a group shot,
there's no need to rush in. Just put the camera on a stand or tripod, select the
Face Self-Timer, and the camera will wait for the photographer's face to get
on-camera before it takes the shot. Motion Detection now tracks moving subjects
in a much larger range, and the new Servo AF retains focus on a moving subject
after the shutter button is pressed halfway - allowing you to wait for the
perfect shot without refocusing. Also, Face Detection and Motion Detection are
markedly improved.

Intelligent Contrast Correction
DIGIC 4 also makes possible the new 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. The PowerShot G11 can
even use i-Contrast in playback mode to adjust images that were shot without the
setting activated.

Red-eye Correction provides
options for removing red-eye from subjects in flash pictures.
1) The Red-eye Correction during shooting actually identifies and corrects
red-eye in human subjects as pictures are taken.
2) The G11 can be set to automatically detect and correct red-eye during image
playback.

Life doesn't give you second
chances to capture special times. That's why the G11 features ISO 3200 to reduce
the effects of camera shake and sharpen subjects in low-light situations, giving
you greater shooting flexibility.

HDMI output for
viewing still images on an HDTV.

With the advanced PowerShot G11, you can capture breathtaking, high-resolution
still images and impressive standard definition movies with ease. The camera
also makes it simple to enjoy and share your stills and SD movies with a
mini-HDMI connector for direct connection to a high-definition monitor or HDTV,
so every color and nuance can be appreciated like you intended them to be.
