Background and Identification

First introduced in 2000, the Canon PowerShot G series is a range of digital cameras produced by Canon as part of its flagship PowerShot line. Cameras in the G series are compact and are aimed at photography enthusiasts who desire more flexibility than a traditional point-and-shoot without the bulk and weight of a digital single-lens reflex camera. As compact cameras, they have a fixed lens. All the G series cameras use a 1-inch type sensor except for the Powershot G1 X Mark III, which uses an APS-C size sensor.

The PowerShot G Series cameras feature a lithium-ion battery, full manual exposure control and an articulated LCD screen. However, the G7, G9, G10, G15, anf G16 have a fixed screen. Moreover, the G series cameras have RAW image format capture in all models except the G7 and have a lens with a wider aperture than standard Powershot model. Additional features include remote capture, except in G11) and faster image processing.

The cameras also feature a hot shoe except in G7 X and G9 X for an external flashgun including those from Canon’s EX Range. Newer models in the G series have larger sensors than most other point-and-shoot cameras such as the G1X, G1X Mark II, and the G7X.
