  • The PowerShot G11 is a very flexible compact with many power features normally associated with SLRs, As well as the ability to shoot in RAW and take quality lowlight shots without flash, the G11 is fast and intuitive, with generally unflappable metering...
  • 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...
  • For G series obsessives, or well-heeled owners of Canon SLRs seeking a backup camera, the G11 makes sense.There’s certainly a lot to like about this camera, but its relatively high price, combined with some design and usability niggles, mean that le...

  • Priced exactly the same as its still current predecessor in the G10, the G11 offers the advantage of a flexible LCD screen plus higher ISO options. If neither is particularly important and a higher resolution will serve better, then the older G10 is ...

  • Timeless design, excellent image quality, variangle LCD one of the best of its type
  • Viewfinder too small, crowded backplate, soft shutter release
  • In the world of advanced compacts, the G series from Canon has long been regarded as one of the best. While the models aren't always as small as some other advanced compacts on the market, the sturdy design and advanced feature-set mean that they are...

  • Abstract:  Canon PowerShot G11 Hands-On and Compared First – Where It Fits In Designing cameras entails a series of compromises, as of course does buying cameras. When a company such as Canon sets out to make a new camera they need to balance a series of variab...

  Published: 2006-01-01, review by: gizmodo.com

  • Abstract:  It's fat. It's $500. It takes fantastic photographs. The G11 is Canon's top-of-the-line point-and-shoot. It occupies a sorta strange spot, towering over the average point-and-shoot in basically every metric—image quality, size, weight an...

  • Abstract:  The Canon Powershot G11 is an outstanding digital camera. It makes an excellent back up to a Digital SLR or as a more portable camera for anyone who does not want to carry round a Digital SLR. There is so much to like. To start with the picture qualit...

  • Flexible and versatile. Loads of controls within easy reach Sturdy build. Clear, tilt-and-rotate screen
  • Barrel distortion at the wide end of the zoom. Not as compact as most compacts. No HD video
  • The most serious compact has taken a step forward by taking a megapixel step back. It could be smaller, but it’s still beautiful ...

  • Ultraversatile, loads of quickaccess controls, high quality screen
  • Pushes the definition of “compact” to its limits, barrel distortion at wide end
  • The ideal compact backup to a DSLR, or a step-up point-and-shoot for snappers looking to up their game...
