Earlier G series PowerShots were real objects of desire
But the PowerShotG11 is unlikely to elicit many lustful glances
The swivelling LCD housing means it’s quite a fat and awkward camera
And while Beth Ditto fans may disagree
Portly doesn&r...

Lost some nice features from the G10.
Rather slow lens (in terms of aperture) by traditional G series standards

Abstract: La série PowerShot G est la série des compacts que Canon destine aux experts/pros. Entendre par là un boîtier plus léger qu'un encombrant reflex, mais à l'ergonomie similaire. Car une fois qu'on a goûté aux charmes de la maîtrise de son boîtier, rie...

pas de vidéo HD.
Canon reste dans la démarche de l’évolution dans la continuité. Le petit dernier, le G11, et le G10 se ressemblent comme deux gouttes d’eau. Avec le PowerShot G11, Canon parvient cependant à améliorer son compact exper...
Abstract: Apparue en septembre 2000, la gamme PowerShot de Canon est sans doute l'une des plus anciennes familles de compacts experts existantes encore. Malgré des modèles plus ou moins réussis, la gamme G s'est assurée un joli succ&e...

Abstract: Après plus d'une année de loyaux services, le Canon PowerShot G10 (testé) tire sa révérence et cède sa place de compact expert au nouveau venu logiquement baptisé PowerShot G11. Si l'allure générale semble identique, certaines modifications importan...
Abstract: La Canon PowerShot G11 offre lo stesso form factor dei modelli che l'hanno preceduta. In particolare, la differenza estetica con il modello G10 è praticamente impercettibile. Sembra anche un controsenso il fatto che questo nuovo modello monti un sensore d...
La domanda che la maggior parte delle persone si pone è: "Ha senso comprare una macchina fotografica di questo genere?". Stanziare il budget per l'acquisto di una Canon Powershot G11 e poi utilizzarla solo in pieni automatismi al pari di una qualsiasi ...
Abstract: Le fotocamere compatte non sono figlie di un 'dio minore' e non è vero che una reflex è sempre migliore di una compatta.PowerShot G11 ne è l'esempio. Disponibile a un prezzo intorno ai 450 euro, non nasconde già a prima vista le sue migliori qualità,...
Ce l’ha fatta la nuova regina a conquistarsi il trono? Secondo noi si.La G11 è un prodotto eccezionale nella sua fascia di mercato, e pur costando una cifra ragguardevole (tra i 500 e i 600 euro nei negozi italiani) la sua unicità la rende...
