Is Canon G7 Digicam A Good Buy?

Considering the number of digicam models being introduced in the market one is likely to get mixed up while narrowing down on a model. This article identifies what factors need to be taken in to consideration while buying a digicam.
What factors do you look for before you decide whether or not to buy a camera? In this article I am going to find out whether or not the Canon G7 digicam is good value for money.

A digicam is something you’d like to carry around, wherever you go. So portability is a major issue. The Canon G7 is very light, and is pocket-sized. However it has enough body to it to allow comfortable use.

The rugged design with its solid metal and black plastic motif is stylish.

The sharp lens and good focal range of this camera allow you to take pictures with great image quality. Noise reduction is comparable with the best digicams, and you can expect noise-free pictures up to ISO 400.

This camera has great auto-focus, aperture and shutter speeds, and you don’t have to be a professional photographer to take clear pictures, using this digicam.

You will also love the other features this camera has. They include an optical viewfinder, a large zoom with a good range, audio recording, image stabilization, optional lens adapters, a wide range of parameters for image color and sharpness, a good built-in flash, continuous shooting mode, movie mode, etc.

The only complaint about this camera is that it lacks raw mode. This means you will not have the privilege of processing the picture using external software, to bring out the highlights of your choice. The pictures are processed by the camera itself, and it does so, in 8-bit JPG format. Also, there’s no battery level indicator on this camera.

The positives of this camera outweigh its negatives, and you shouldn’t mind paying the premium price this camera commands, given its wealth of premium features.
