The Cannon PowerShot G7 – big brother to the G6 – is a smart-looking camera, with a tough matte-black exterior made of metal and plastic. It’s lighter in weight and flaunts an array of upgrades to its predecessor. Some of them being; the Digic III processor, a wondrous 2 cm macro focus, a 10 MP 1/1.8-inch CCD, x optical zoom lens and optical image stabilization. Plus, the G7 is crowned with an ISO dial while the ISO lets you choose from a range of 80-16000 for low-light
conditions.
Although the G7 is a performer, it has its downsides, such as its price. At a whopping $600, why wouldn’t someone buy an SLR camera as opposed to getting restricted to a digital one? Secondly, the G7 surprisingly doesn’t support RAW image format nor an optical zoom for the A/V shooting mode. If one has a thing for the user-friendly interface of digital cameras, then it’s better to opt for a mega zoom camera. All-in-all, there’s no doubt that the G7 performs well, but it is worth the buck, our answer is, ‘no’!
For: Commendable macro focus, presence of ISO dial and hot show support.
Against: Overpriced, no support for RAW-image format.
