Canon PowerShot G6 ........S$490........call or sms me for
detail 91431198
Successor to the popular PowerShot G5 the new PowerShot G6 was
announced on 19th August 2004. At the beginning of the year it
became clear that Canon wouldn't be jumping on the six megapixel
1/1.8" CCD bandwagon, instead they were holding off for the higher
resolution seven megapixel sensor and chose to introduce both the
G6 and S70 with this CCD in August. The increase in output pixel
count from the G5 to the G6 is quite a bit more (2.0 million
pixels) than from the G3 to the G5 (1.2 million pixels) and so it's
likely that the G6 will be of considerable interest to G5 owners
and also those G3 owners who chose not to upgrade to the G5.
Although the G6 looks quite a bit different to the G5 (it's 16 mm
narrower) it has the same lens (although apparently with improved
coatings to cut down CA) a similar control layout and feature
set.
The PowerShot G6 becomes one of the first prosumer digital cameras
to utilize the new 1/1.8" seven megapixel CCD. Just to add a little
confusion to the mix Canon isn't particularly logical with its
naming conventions; PowerShot S60 (5 megapixel), PowerShot S70 (7
megapixel), PowerShot G5 (5 megapixel), PowerShot G6 (7
megapixel).
