Canon today introduced the new compact camera series Canon PowerShot G. The new Canon G1X addresses the professional photographers and enthusiasts but looking for a compact camera performance. Canon G1 X is the new flagship of Canon's compact and has a large CMOS sensor that will provide quality images than expected but a smaller depth of field due to the generous size of the sensor and lens but light, with f/2.8 maximum aperture.

The most anticipated feature is the new sensor CMOS, now only slightly lower than that of ASP-C DSLR (4 / 3, 18mm, for 6.x or greater than the G12's) and offers a focal length objective equivalent 28-112mm (4x zoom). The new sensor is composed of the same pixel size as the Canon 600D DSLR, and it may be a first indication in terms of image quality that you register X. Although G1 is a camera "system" (mirrorless ), Canon G1X will be a competitor of similar performance due mirrorless models but in a more compact body. mirrorless Although Canon's first model to be seen (but rumors say it will be released this summer), Canon G1 X is probably a "response" of the Canon's Fuji X10.

Other technical specifications include X G1's RAW format recording on 14-bit image processor DIGIC V in burst shooting up to 6 frames per second helps you capture action shots and shooting in full HD 1080p and the "Movie Digest "will appeal to those who prefer to photograph but" slip "and land Video from time to time.

As expected, the new canon addresses G1X photographers who want maximum performance from a compact camera.

Canon G1 X is, at least for now, Canon's answer to the "avalanche" Mirrorless camera with a sensor competitive but in a more compact body. After all, how many of those who buys a camera to buy their mirrorless go buy a set of objectives, in addition to the kit?
