Our Review & Notes:
Retro looking sure, the best camera you can buy ABSOLUTELY. The Canon G1X digital camera brings DSLR camera performance into a medium format camera. Everyone wants to talk about megapixels but this truly is not what makes a great camera, it is all about the size of the sensor in the camera and the G1X has a sensor that is not far off the size and performance of the bigger and bulkier DSLR cameras. The G1X is the type of camera the professionals use when their big DSLR cameras just can't do the job. It really is that good. You can take full control of the G1X in manual mode and capture images in RAW format so what you shoot is what you get. The G Series from Canon has always been the market leader and with the G1X there truly is no competiton. Do we recommend it, without hesitation and quite possibly is the best compact camera we have EVER used, hands down.
Canon G1X - The Heart and Soul of the Camera
The latest-generation Canon DIGIC 5 Image Processor in the Canon G1X brings phenomenal
increases in processing speed and power. Improved chip architecture and
algorithms deliver greatly expanded functionality with further
refinement in image quality. Improved noise reduction produces clearer
images when shooting in low light at high ISO speeds. Enhanced
i-Contrast performance adjusts differences between light and dark areas
to achieve even more natural-looking results. The faster processing
speed also results in faster continuous shooting capability. The DIGIC 5
Image Processor also makes possible a new, highly advanced automatic
white balance system.
Canon G1X - 1.5" CMOS Sensor
Canon engineers developed a sensor for PowerShot G1 X digital camera
that is nearly the size of an EOS DSLR camera's APS-C sized sensor, and
built with a similar pixel structure - each pixel site is larger,
allowing more light to be captured - giving the PowerShot G1 X a
completely different level of image quality than compact cameras that
have come before it. At 1.5 inches, the sensor is approximately 6.3
times larger than that of the PowerShot G12 digital camera.
Canon G1X - Full HD Movie
In addition to the HS SYSTEM, the combination of the advanced CMOS
sensor and DIGIC 5 Image Processor in the Canon PowerShot G1 X digital camera
makes it possible to shoot crisp, clear high definition video. Imagine
the fun and excitement of being able to shoot spectacular 1080p Full HD
video with stereo sound that you can later watch on your HDTV or
download to your computer to share with family and friends. In addition
to being able to shoot Full HD 1080p video at 24* frames per second, the
Canon G1 X digital camera can also shoot 720p HD video at 30**
frames per second.
Canon G1X - Optical Zoom
The Canon G1X digital camera is equipped with a newly designed 4x
Wide-Angle Optical Zoom and 28mm lens. Canon engineers specifically designed this lens
to take advantage of the PowerShot G1 X digital camera's exceptionally
large sensor. Bright and fast, the f/2.8 lens captures a wealth of
subtle detail, even indoors and in dark scenes, and easily covers a full
range of shooting situations. It incorporates the latest in Canon UA
lens technology, suppressing lens aberration for outstanding image
quality throughout the entire zoom range. Images are richly expressive,
from areas of highest resolution to beautifully artistic background
blurs. The wide angle gives you more to work with in every shot,
expanding your avenues for creative photography. Zooming is fast and
precise, and 4x power takes you in for the close-up.
