  • Earlier G series PowerShots were real objects of desire

  • Canons nye G11 leverer litt finere bildefiler en forgjengeren og da er det spesielt kontroll over bildestøy som er klart forbedret på G11. Den vippbare skjermen er praktisk - og bare det å ha kontroll over de viktigste funksjonene...

  • Kompakt, men likevel velbetjent; god bildekvalitet; et ypperlig speilrefleks-supplement.
  • Vi savner hd-video pluss en skikkelig «diskret-modus» der også alle led-lys kan slås av.
  • Canon har lykkes i å få frem en imponerende mye bedre match mellom ccd-brikke og optikk i G11 enn de greide i G10. Forskjellen er nok ikke så stor at nåværende G10-eiere umiddelbart må sende kameraet sitt ut på Finn.no o...
