FEATURES



Continuing the Canon G-Series Legacy … The Mastery of Image Quality, Functionality and Performance.
The fourth-generation PowerShot G11 continues the Canon’s G-series legacy as the camera that supports and nurtures creativity with a full range of shooting and recording modes and compatibility with exciting accessories including Speedlite flashes

Dual Anti-Noise System
The new Dual Anti-Noise system comprising of Canon’s proprietary DIGIC 4 Imaging Processor and a high-sensitive CCD to deliver crisp, clear images in all demanding lighting situations.

Improved Smart Auto Mode
Smart Auto mode is improved with Servo AF / AE. Camera automatically tracks moving subjects when you half pressed the shutter button.
Smart Auto mode uses both Scene Detection and Face Detection technologies to detects subject (people / item) and determine subject brightness, contrast, distance, overall hue and motion. The mode can also differentiate between day-time and low-light (night time) scenarios for an effortless capture of the perfect picture.
The Smart Auto mode intelligently selects the proper settings for the camera based on 22 pre-defined shooting situations

5x Optical Zoom, 28mm Wide Angle and OIS (Optical Image Stabilizer)
Highly versatile camera with a wide-angle zoom lens that reaches all the way from 28mm at the wide end to 5x optical zoom (28mm – 140mm) at the telephoto end (35mm format equivalent). You'll capture more in every shot, and add greater depth to your overall photography.
Canon’s superior Linear Lens system with lens-shift-type image stabilizer enables you to shoot distant subjects with razor-sharp precision
Digital teleconverter and safety zoom functions allow you to double your zoom power with uncompromised image quality
Full Range of Shooting and Recording Modes Including RAW + JPEG for The Ultimate Creative Control.
In RAW mode, images are recorded without modification and as the files are unprocessed, colours can be manipulated to precise requirements before converted to TIFF or JPEG.   
To edit, use Canon’s DPP image adjustment software.
The camera can also be set to allow the simultaneous recording of both RAW and JPEG images while shooting
