Details
Canon developed 14.3 Megapixel 1.5-inch type High Sensitivity CMOS Sensor (Sensor is 6 times larger than the Canon PowerShot G12).
Capture amazing looking portrait shots with greater depth of field.
The ground breaking new DiG!C 5 Image Processor achieves the most natural looking images with reduced noise and improved white balance.
14-bit images can express 4 times the amount of brightness variations in colours than 12-bit images can. Images captured in difficult lighting situations can be ‘pushed’ further in RAW workflow software, to find detail in shadows and highlights that were not immediately apparent.
Shoot amazing images in low light situations with ISO12800.
Shoot full resolution images at 4.5fps, great for sport or action photography.
Get creative with your photography and enjoy full flexibility with manual control.
Shoot quality FULL HD movies and view easily on your TV with an HDMI terminal

2
If no face is detected and Continuous AF is off, AiAF (9 point) is used. If Continuous AF is on, the center AF frame is enabled.
3
AF frame size is selectable
4
When number of detected faces increases, the shutter is released at 2 sec delay. However if no face is detected for 30 seconds or more, the shooting operation will start automatically.
5
Control to incorporate facial brightness in Face AiAF
6
Fixed to center / Linked to AF frame
7
Camera automatically sets the optimal speed according to shooting mode and subject brightness
8
Camera automatically sets the optimal speed according to shooting mode, subject brightness and subject movement and camera shake. The ISO speed is relatively higher than Auto.
9
Even if the file size has not reached 4GB, the recording stops when the recording time reaches 1 hour. For lesser capacity memory cards, the recording stops when the card becomes full or reaches 1 hour.
