Product Details
Description:
Bright, fast and more creative than ever: advanced technologies come together for an exciting new camera that moves beyond anything the G-Series has seen before. The PowerShot G1 X digital camera will inspire advanced amateurs who have embraced the G-Series to explore new realms of photographic expression, and give pros an excellent camera that complements their creative demands. The new 1.5-inch High-Sensitivity CMOS sensor approaches an EOS DSLR's APS-C sized sensor, with a light-sensitive area that's approximately 6.3 times larger than that of the PowerShot G12 digital camera. The new 14.3 Megapixel sensor, combined with a new lens and DIGIC 5 Image Processor, creates the HS SYSTEM that delivers image quality previously impossible in a compact camera, with beautiful blur, lower noise, and extraordinary resolution in low-light shooting and can shoot at ISOs of up to 12800. The PowerShot G1 X also has 14-bit RAW capabilities for even greater creative control and Full HD Video recording. Manual settings and operability inherited from EOS cameras impart a high-level shooting experience, and open the door to new creative possibilities. Substantive luxury defines the design: a neatly clarified sculpture with a firm grip, huge Vari-angle LCD and optical viewfinder.

Never used a DSLR and was sort of hesitant/intimidated to go that route. The Canon Powershot G1X was the answer for me. Superior image quality, RAW capability, manual functionality, HDR, and 1080p video capability...

Nice addition to a DSLR.
This is a good addition to a DSLR and not replace one especially during times that having a full sized DSLR isn't practical or not allowed e.g. in certain venues like concerts, museums or dining out, etc.

Canon PowerShot G1 X
THE GOOD: The Canon PowerShot G1 X delivers excellent photo quality and a nice shooting design. THE BAD: Two flaws stand out: the cameras underperforming lens and sluggish shooting speed. THE BOTTOM LINE: A big camera capable of shooting some lovely photographs, the Canon PowerShot G1 Xs slow lens disappoints given its high price.

PowerShot G1 X
The Canon PowerShot G1 X takes the sharpest photos weve ever seen from a fixed-lens camera, and its image quality and video quality are outstanding overall. However, for $800, we expected better macro and burst-mode performance.
