A Canon fez uma cirurgia em sua série PowerShot com a inclusão da Câmera Digital PowerShot G12. Além de se manter fiel a muitos de seus recursos mais antigos, a G12 chega com um recurso que está se tornando padrão em câmeras digitais: Vídeo digital (com som estéreo!). Capture vídeo HD 1280 x 720p com áudio estéreo usando essa câmera compacta e versátil. Incrível, não é mesmo?

Além do vídeo, a G12 também é competitiva com sua captura de imagem fotográfica de 10MP. Capture arquivos RAW e JPEG para cartões de memória SD/SDHC/SDXC, entre outros, com auxílio do sensor de imagem CCD de 1/1,7 de polegada da câmera e processador de imagem DIGIC 4, chamado Sistema HS da Canon. A G12 possui também um ajuste ISO 3200 para imagem excelente em pouca luz.

Adorada por sua natureza discreta, a série PowerShot de câmeras é excelente para o profissional e para o amador da mesma forma - ela não é uma Pro DSLR grande, mas mantém os recursos incríveis de uma DSLR Profissional. Dito isso, a G12 é muito mais fácil de carregar em sua bolsa. Alguns recursos que profissionais, ou qualquer um que deseje tirar fotos, vão apreciar incluem a opção de controle manual, junto da celebrada função IS Híbrida que é a combinação da lente Canon 28mm genuína, zoom ótico 5x e estabilização ótica de imagem. IS Híbrida facilita capturar fotos macro incríveis.

Um outro recurso notável da G12 é a sua Alta Faixa Dinâmica. Baseado no princípio de "bracketing", a HDR ajuda a capturar uma imagem bem balanceada que apresenta cenas com altas luzes e pouca luz (também conhecido como: sombra) de uma forma atraente - oferecendo as suas imagens um destaque maior! Essa função também possui um aspecto chamado i-Contrast. O i-Contrast permite ao usuário determinar a quantidade de correção HDR aplicada na imagem, que pode ser muito útil ao evitar estouro de altas luzes e evitar que detalhes se percam nas sombras. O AF de Rastreamento da Canon também permite selecionar um assunto para "rastrear" no caso de movimento durante a captura.

Você ficará contente em saber que a Canon manteve a sua bem recebida tela LCD Vari-Angle - oferecendo 2,8 polegadas de flexibilidade multi-ângulos "flip-out" para composição e reprodução de todos os seus vídeos e fotografias. Como um avanço em relação aos modelos anteriores, a G12 oferece vários formatos, incluindo: 1:1, 3:2, 4:3, 4:5 e 16:9. Outros recursos notáveis incluem o Smart AUTO da Canon, nivelamento eletrônico, alta faixa dinâmica, rastreamento de AF e um dial frontal - tudo isso foi projetado para tornar seu trabalho mais prazeroso e bem sucedido.

Sensor de Imagem CCD de 10MP + Processador de Imagem DIGIC 4
A PowerShot G12 emprega o SISTEMA HS combinando um poderoso sensor CCD de 10MP e Processador de Imagem DIGIC 4 da Canon. Graças a esse avanço tecnológico, a G12 é mais sensível do que as câmeras com igual número de megapixels - oferecendo imagens espetaculares com ruído mínimo. A sensibilidade ampliada exige uma velocidade mais alta de ISO e a G12 oferece um novo ISO máximo de 3200. Cenas fora de foco e tremido da câmera são reduzidos para maior nitidez

Além disso, um modo de pouca luz, novo na série G, permite capturar imagens em várias condições. A câmera ajusta automaticamente a velocidade ISO de 3200 até 12800 reagindo ao brilho ambiente, movimento do assunto e tremido da câmera.

Vídeo HD 720p com Som Estéreo
A PowerShot G12 permite gravar lindos vídeos em alta definição (1280 x 720/24p). A câmera também facilita exibir vídeos HD e fotografias em sua HDTV com um conector mini HDMI. Usando o mini HDMI você terá uma conexão direta usando apenas um cabo com a sua HDTV para uma experiência HD prazerosa sem degradação de imagem; sem falar na capacidade de exibir até 130 imagens de uma só vez. A PowerShot G12 também inclui um zoom ótico 5x ao capturar vídeo. Além disso, a tecnologia Smart AUTO da câmera ajuda a assegurar arquivos de vídeo de alta qualidade.
Fotografias RAW + JPEG
O modo RAW da PowerShot G12 permite tirar fotos sem compressão JPEG. RAW oferece imagens mais nítidas e controle criativo completo na edição. As imagens RAW são transferidas diretamente para seu computador onde elas podem ser editadas usando o software de ajuste de imagem ou um aplicativo de processamento. A câmera também pode ser configurada para permitir a captura simultânea de imagens RAW e JPEG ao fotografar.
LCD Vari-Angle de 2,8 polegadas
A PowerShot G12 oferece uma tela LCD grande PureColor System de 2,8 polegadas para excelente controle ao enquadrar suas fotos. Mas o tamanho é só parte da história. O LCD PureColor System da Canon oferece contraste, resolução e cor espetacular até de um certo ângulo. A tela é durável e fácil de ver. Ela é ótima para reunir amigos e familiares para ver suas imagens.
IS Híbrida
A PowerShot G12 vem equipada com a função IS Híbrida avançada da Canon, que corrige o tremido da câmera a partir de duas fontes para oferecer imagens nítidas e sem tremido - até ao fechar o zoom próximo ao seu assunto. A IS Híbrida emprega um sensor angular e um acelerômetro, permitindo suprimir o tremido causado pela angulação da câmera e o "tremido de movimento" que acontece quando o seu assunto se move em paralelo à câmera - um problema mas aparente em fatores grandes de zoom.
Lente Zoom Grande Angular de 28mm
A G12 é uma câmera altamente versátil com uma lente zoom grande angular que chega a 28mm na extremidade grande angular e 140mm na extremidade telefoto (equivalente no formato 35mm). Você vai capturar mais imagens em cada foto e adicionar maior profundidade à sua fotografia geral
Zoom ótico de 40x
A G12 vem equipada com um zoom ótico longo 5x - e a tecnologia estabilizadora ótica de imagem proprietária da Canon, que mantém imagens estáveis e livres de tremido por toda a faixa de zoom - até em pouca luz - detectando movimento e gerando um sinal corretivo. Por se tratar de um sistema ótico, um movimento mais corretivo é permitido e não há degradação na qualidade de imagem.
Opções de armazenamento
A G12 grava em memória flash externa - facilitando armazenar e transferir suas fotos e vídeos. A câmera é compatível com as seguintes opções de armazenamento: SD, SDHC, SDXC, MMC, MMC+ e HCMMC+.
Gama de Acessórios Compatíveis Opcionais
A PowerShot G12 é compatível com a série de flash Speedlite feita para todas as câmeras SLR série EOS. Conecte um flash Speedlite na sapata e então ajuste e controle o flash no menu "Controle de Flash" na câmera. Com uma Speedlite, a G12 pode ter funções extras, como medição autoflash, compensação de exposição de Flash e trava de FE e fotografia contínua com flash externo. Além disso, o Transmissor Speedlite ST-E2 da Canon permite ter múltiplos flashes escravos e controle sem fio. Uma lente Tele-Converter projetada para a G12, Adaptador de Filtro FCA-DC58DB e Case à Prova d'Água WP-DC34 também estão disponíveis.
Smart AUTO
Basta colocar a G12 no modo Smart AUTO e você poderá aproveitar ao máximo a sua experiência fotográfica. Trata-se de uma maneira agradável e relaxante de fotografar, pois você pode concentrar-se totalmente no seu assunto, sabendo que a câmera dá conta dos detalhes técnicos. A avançada tecnologia Canon analisa de maneira inteligente a sua situação e as condições de operação. Então, ela seleciona automaticamente uma configuração apropriada entre configurações especialmente definidas. Portanto, seja fotografando flores, o crepúsculo ou seus amigos no parque, você pode ter a certeza de que obterá imagens notáveis e memoráveis.
Conectividade Adicional
A G12 oferece conexão direta com Impressoras Fotográficas Compactas Canon SELPHY, Impressoras Fotográficas Jato de Tinta PIXMA e impressoras compatíveis com PictBridge usando a conexão USB 2.0 da câmera e o cabo incluído.
26 Idiomas a Sua Escolha

I have been photographing for many years as both professional and enthusiast with Leica's, Hasselblad's and Nikon's, and I am continually amazed at the image quality from the Canon G12, even from its jpegs (RAW is very impressive). I typically photograph with both formats, jpg and RAW, and save times are typically three seconds at most--not inconvenient but not instant either. Startup is very fast with the G12, AF is accurate, and the close-up capabilities are crisply impressive at wide-angle. Lens flare is virtually non-existent, image contrast is very high, sharpness is excellent, noise is extremely well controlled, and chromatic aberrations are hard to find (and easily corrected with software). I'd previously owned a G9, which was notable, but the G12 blows it away. I've also owned the Panasonic ZS7, which the G12 leaves in the dust, and own an Olympus E-P2, which G12 images compare favorably with although not as detailed. Even when printing at 13 x 18 inches the G12 results are surprisingly nuanced and detailed with little or no noise (ISO 80-200). Needless to say, I'm very happy with the results. I think it's Canon best G series to date.MOVIES: AF (continuous), AE Lock, and Exposure Compensation ARE NOT AVAILABLE in movie mode! In other words whichever focus point you began with when you started shooting is exactly where the camera will remain for the remainder of that video. No, you can't begin with a close-up and then shift to focus on something far. The AF won't work. Which is dumb. A huge disappointment from Canon for those interested in video! I hope they fix this with a firmware update.SOFTWARE: The included Canon Digital Photo Professional software does a great job of converting RAW files into 16-bit or 8-bit Tiff, including manipulating the parameters for Unsharp Mask, and notates the RAW file so that your settings can be recalled when re-opened. It also lets you adjust White Balance, Contrast, Tone Curve, Saturation, Sharpness, Noise, Crop, etc. While it doesn't have the finesse of controls in Adobe Camera Raw (Adobe Bridge) it does a very good job, including Batch processing. HANDLING: I found the handling and heft of the Canon G12 to be very comfortable, especially in using the swivel-tilt LCD screen (which is very sharp, by the way). The knurled ring on the front just below the shutter/zoom button (which allows you to adjust shutter speed of aperture, depending on Mode) is very useful, although I times I found it too easy to mistake it for the zoom control.Infrequently I found myself wishing that the zoom range was a bit longer, perhaps 28 to 200mm. But realistically I think Canon's decision to limit the zoom range to 28-140mm (more than enough for most situations) is probably one of the factors that makes the lens such an outstanding performer. The Canon G12 is a great little camera that tries to compete with Micro Four Thirds and blows point-and-shoots out of the water.

Overall, I think the G12 is a nice camera. My last Canon G-Series was a G2, which I really liked. Since the G2, I've mainly use Panasonic FZ series digital compacts, because of the high-quality Leica lenses, the zoom range, the ability to achieve focus quickly, and the intuitive controls. I made the switch to the G12 because I wanted better quality from high-ISO images, decent manual controls, and the capability to take HD movies. The good… The camera produces very nice images that I have no doubt will allow printing up to 12"x18" at near the quality of my D300. The images at ISO 100 and 200 are very clean, and ISO 400 is completely usable. The lens has a little bit of distortion (mainly at the wide end), but it is very sharp. Also, the zoom range is fairly decent. The camera feels nice in-hand, and has all of the main controls very accessible.The bad… My main gripe has to do with the build quality and the price. The build quality is definitely nice, but it doesn't feel as nice as what a [$] compact should provide. It really should have an all metal body in this price range (only the front plate is metal). Also, some of the dials feel a little cheap. The other gripe has to do with the controls. As you adjust aperture/shutter speed/ISO/etc., the camera feels a bit sluggish to respond. It's not as fast as my 2 year old Panasonic. It's also not a speed demon when it comes to focusing. It takes about ½ to 1 sec to focus in good light. It's not bad, but I was hoping for closer to DSLR-speed for a high-end compact camera in the $500 price range. The battery charge indicator isn't very useful – it goes from full charge (three bars) to dead in about 10 minutes of actual use. However, this syndrome is pretty common with digital compacts. The tripod hole is not centered with lens axis. Lastly, the optical finder is almost useless.Sorry, no ugly… it's a good looking camera with very intuitive controls.Because of the build quality and the sluggish controls, I'm left just a bit disappointed. I would probably be satisfied had I only paid $400 for this camera. Despite this, I will still enjoy the nice images that can be produced using this camera.

      Comments about Canon PowerShot G12 Digital Camera:

      I have been a G-series owner from the beginning (G2, G7, G10, G11) and now the G12. I upgraded from the G11 due to the HD video and that was worth it. The video is very crisp and clear and even has good audio. The LCD screen is large and bright and it seems to do well in low light. If you are a raw shooter then this is the way to go for your point and shoot camera.

      The G12 is a very good point and shoot for both video and photos. I purchased it for our student newspaper because I wanted the paper to have a camera that took both high quality photos and was easy enough to use for novices. The G12 fit the bill. It has enough manual controls for photogs, but inexperienced people can still pick it up and go. My only complaint is I wish the spot focus was easier to access and use. All of the other manual controls are very easy to use and feel natural in the hand.

          Comments about Canon PowerShot G12 Digital Camera:

          I have 3 dSLR cameras (5DmkII, T2i, and XTi), as well as a G9. The G12 can't match my dSLRs, but does come pretty darn close to the XTi, and blows the G9 away!

          I love the "HDR" feature (takes 3 exposures and merges them in-camera). 720p video is also a plus (but not necessary). In general, the image quality is excellent for a point-and-shoot. And with a built-in hot-shoe, I can still use it with speedlights and strobes, all with a much faster x-sync speed as well.

          Again, my preference is to shoot with my 5DmkII or T2i, but when I don't feel like lugging this gear around, the G12 fits the bill well. A purchase I don't regret.

          Comments about Canon PowerShot G12 Digital Camera:

          This is my second powershot camera. This model is a big ungrade for my general use. I need and use the water proof case for underwater pics and for rain/wet condition pictures. I have not played with all the bells and whistles, but am most happy with the LCD screen visibility, even with sunglasses and in the case. For the money spent, the pics and videos using the zoom or not are very good quality. I plan on many years with this camera.

          Comments about Canon PowerShot G12 Digital Camera:

          I've had it only a few weeks but I have given it a rigorous workout. It's pretty quick to start up, continous shooting is acceptable and the pictures are of good quality. The controls are easy to work and there are many different options. I used some of the automatic settings at times simply because I didn't have much time to get really familar with the camera and they usually yieled good results. I especially liked the My Colors feature and I found the ND filter to be handy.

          I had read other reviews where they said the flash wasn't strong enough. I found it to be pretty strong and did not use my external, which I had carried with me. In fact, I had to power the flash down some.

          I used the low light setting a lot and was surprisingly pleased with the results. There was the occasional photo that had noticeable noise, but not too many.

          The only negative I thought was battery life. It really stinks. With the Canon battery, I got less than 200 shots. I had also bought a Pearstone brand as a backup battery and that lasted as long as the Canon one. When the battery starts to go-you'd better change it quick!

          All in all, it was the perfect camera for the trip I took where I didn't want to lug around my DSLR and lenses, etc. I don't regret purchasing it.

            Comments about Canon PowerShot G12 Digital Camera:

            This a a great compliment to my SLR kit. It takes decent shots whilst not weighing the 5 kgs of my EOS 40D and lenses. The camera was obviously designed by people who use cameras as the controls are intuitive. The low light performance is better than expected and the build quality is in keeping with the price.

                Purchased camera to take pics when on a trip to Italy. I have been using camera to get familiar with functions and the pics are clean and crisp. I do own a Cannon RebelXT with additional lenses and was looking for a more compact camera that takes quality pics. So far I am impressed.

                  I am a newcomer to photography and didn't want to go SLR but wanted something better than your average digital point and shoot....the G12 is IT. It is a powerful camera with a huge set of capabilities but still easy to learn and use as a beginner. What is most impressive about it is its size. For someone who does a lot of outdoor activities and wants to shoot great pics without getting slowed down by a bulky SLR, this camera does it better than any other on the market for its size/weight.

                  Comments about Canon PowerShot G12 Digital Camera:

                  I am a former 35mm (film)camera user. For the past number of years, I have been using a small point & shoot, never really being satisfied with its diversity.
                  The G12 has proven to be the answer for me. It is small enough to easily transport. Having the settings on the outside of the camera allows quicker manipulation. Auto setting is wonderful. Perfect pictures n low light. I also love the movable screen. Only change I would make is the power of the zoom, but I can live without it.

                  Very pleased with the 12. Contrary to some reviews the battery last for quite some time. Much longer than the point and shoots that use disposable batteries. It shoots Macro in Auto mode which is a plus. The controls are very intuitive for all those current or previous Canon owners.
