Canon Power G12 Highlights
10.0 Megapixel sensor combined with the DIGIC 4 Image Processor
creates Canon's HS SYSTEM
The Power G12 employs the HS SYSTEM by combining a powerful
10.0 Megapixel CCD sensor and Canon's DIGIC 4 Image Processor.
Thanks to this technological advancement, the G12 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 Power G12
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.
Shoot 720p HD video in stereo sound and play back on an HDTV via
the HDMI output
The Power G12 lets you record video in beautiful high
definition (1280 x 720 pixels). The camera also makes it easy to
enjoy HD videos (and still photos) on your HDTV with a mini-HDMI
connector for direct connection to a high-definition TV monitor.
You'll enjoy the HD experience with no degradation of image or
audio in the signal, plus the ability to display up to 130 still
images at once.
The Power G12 also includes spectacular video functionality.
When shooting video, you can get up close with the 5x Optical
Zoom for riveting detail and realism, from the overall appearance
to facial expressions! And the camera's Smart AUTO technology
that helps ensure the perfect still image works to bring that
same quality to your video.
Shooting and modes including RAW + JPEG
The Power G12'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
of both RAW and JPEG images while shooting.
Canon's Hybrid IS compensates for angular and shift camera shake
during close-up shooting
The Power G12 is equipped with Canon's highly advanced
Hybrid IS function, which corrects camera shake from two sources
to deliver sharp, blur-free images even when you zoom in close to
your subject.
Hybrid IS employs both an angular sensor and an accelerometer,
enabling it to suppress both the blur caused by the angle of the
camera and the "shift blur" that happens when your subject moves
parallel to the camera, a problem that is especially noticeable
at large zoom factors.
With the ability to produce clear, steady images in all
situations and at any zoom length, the Power G12 is the
camera you'll want to take everywhere.
2.8-inch Vari-angle LCD with 461,000 dots plus an optical
viewfinder
The Power G12 gives you a large 2.8-inch PureColor System
LCD screen for excellent control when framing your s. But
size is only part of the story. Canon's PureColor System LCD
offers spectacular color, resolution and contrast even at an
angle. The screen is durable and easy to see. It is a perfect
feature for gathering friends and family around to see your
images.
5x Optical Zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer, plus a 28mm
Wide-Angle Lens
The camera is equipped with a long, 5x Optical Zoom, and Canon's
own Optical Image Stabilizer Technology keeps images steady and
blur-free all through the zoom range--even in low light--by
detecting motion and generating a corrective signal. Because it
is an optical system, more corrective movement is allowed and
there is no degradation of image quality.
The G12 is a highly versatile camera with a wide-angle zoom lens
that reaches all the way from 28mm at the wide end to 140mm at
the telephoto end (35mm format equivalent). You'll capture more
image in every , and add greater depth to your overall
photography.
Optional accessories including Speedlite flashes, underwater
housing and Tele-Converter Lens are available
The Power G12 is compatible with the Speedlite flash series
intended for all EOS series SLR cameras. Attach a Speedlite flash
to the hot shoe, then you can set and control the flash on the
"Flash Control" menu in the camera. With a Speedlight, the G12 is
given extra functions such as autoflash metering, FE lock and
Flash exposure compensation; continuous shooting with external
flash. Also Canon's Speedlite Transmitter ST-E2 enables you to
have multiple slave flashes and wireless control. A
Tele-Converter lens designed for the G12, Filter Adapter FA-DC58B
and WP-DC34 Waterproof Case is also available.
High Dynamic Range scene mode combines multiple s into one
picture
Shooting in high contrast environments can often result in
photos with overexposed and underexposed sections. So to tackle
this problem, Canon developed the High Dynamic Range shooting
mode to make select Power cameras even more intuitive. Under
High Dynamic Range* the camera will shoot three different
exposures in a succession (underexposed, overexposed and normal)
and then merge them into a single image. Underexposed areas are
combined with the overexposed and vice versa, resulting in an
evenly detailed image with flattering shadows and highlights.
*Tripod is required.
