Canon PowerShot G5 prices and specs
The Canon PowerShot G5 was produced on Jun 2, 2003 and is on sale in USA for 699.00.
The Canon PowerShot G5 belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The PowerShot G5 has various automatic modes but you won't make pictures of the same perfect quality in comparison to DSLR cameras.
The camera can shoot photos at 5 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better photo quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/1.8' (7.144 x 5.358 mm) sensor which means that the PowerShot G5 will take photos with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has smaller dimensions and weight. But if you want to shoot photos of the professional quality pay attention to Leica M (Typ 262).
The PowerShot G5 has max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. It is an average shutter speed which will be enough for taking action photos of a satisfactory quality. The lens is built into the camera and you won't be able to change it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
