The G-series of Canon compacts marked themselves from the crowd of other high-end models by providing a near professional level of specification in a (some would say) “bulky” but robustly built package. Well the latest in the lineage, the G7 fulfills only the last of those facets. The G7 is extremely well built. The 2.5-inch screen on this model is bigger, very good, viewable in most lighting and at oblique angles, but gone is the camera's trademark swivel LCD screen. The camera's main features include a 10-megapixel sensor, a 6x optical zoom lens, ISO 1600 top sensitivity for low light work without flash and optical image stabilisation. You also get 25 shooting modes including a full suite of manual shooting modes and two custom settings and a hot shoe for use of accessory flash units.
