High performance features in the most advanced PowerShot ever
The PowerShot G3 is a combination of high image quality, incredible performance and superior features to satisfy the needs of the most demanding professional or advanced amateur photographer.
4.0 Megapixel CCD
The PowerShot G3 owes its brilliantly detailed images to a high-resolution 1/1.8" 4.0 megapixel CCD. On-chip primary color filters provide vivid and realistic color without the noise associated with other color filters.
4x Optical, 3.6x Digital, 14x Combined Zoom
The G3's lens features a 4x optical zoom, the first on a PowerShot camera, that moves from wide-angle to extreme telephoto with the touch of a finger. The lens aperture is a large and bright f/2.0-3.0 so you can shoot in low light without flash.
FlexiZone AF/AE and EOS-based Shooting Modes
FlexiZone AF/AE allows the user to focus on a subject almost anywhere in the picture. The autofocus assist beam can be turned on or off according to the needs of the photographer.
DIGIC and iSAPS Technology
The G3's DIGIC Imaging Processor improves image quality, enhances autofocus accuracy and increases processing speed for sharper images that can be shot faster.
Canon's iSAPS technology meaningfuly relates peripheral brightness and the zoom position of the lens to precalculate the distance between the camera and the subject.
Improved Movie Mode and My Camera Function
The G3's improved Movie Mode now lets you take individual clips with sound up to 3 minutes long.
My Camera Function lets you personalize the start-up image, start-up sound and operation sounds with your own selections using software provided with the camera.
Intelligent Orientation Sensor
This sensor can tell whether your images were shot horizontally or vertically and then adjust the AF, AE and white balance accordingly. Images are automatically rotated to the correct orientation during playback and downloading.
Direct Print and Bubble Jet Direct Print
The G3 is compatible with Card Photo Printers CP-100 and CP-10 and the S830D and S530D Photo Printers (sold separately).
