Canon pursues high-quality images and advanced usability as well as smaller camera bodies, adopting new technology to facilitate resource savings.
Thinner and Lighter Camera Body
Overall advancement in PowerShot G7:
• 6x optical zoom (4x for PowerShot G6)
• Built-in Optical Shift-method Image Stabilizer
Also, the PowerShot G7 has a body that is approximately 30 mm thinner and 16% lighter than the previous model as the result of a newly designed lens and lens barrel and using smaller batteries.
Newly Developed DIGIC III Imaging Engine Realizes High-Quality Photos
Newly developed high-performance DIGIC III imaging engine improved the basic features. The engine also uses advanced new Face priority AF/AE and noise reduction technologies, making it easier than ever to take high-quality photos.
Face priority AF/AE detects the faces in a scene to ensure the best focus and exposure quickly and automatically. Using a high ISO 1600 speed setting can help control camera shake and prevent subject blurring while shooting.

Good Visibility with Large LCD Monitor
The PowerShot G7’s large 2.5-inch, approximately 207,000-pixel LCD monitor makes for good visibility. A wide viewing angle allows users to frame shots easily and check and search images accurately. The highly illuminated backlight allows the monitor to display images sharply and clearly.
