Canon PowerShot G7

[bpribadi]

Is the price @ Alan Photo with or without GST?

Not sure, I didn't asked that detail.

Here is some other review in Norwegian:

From the pics test, looks like still usable up to ISO 400. Lens: corner softness, but very2 little CA, which is significant for me

I'm going today, Hope can get @ this price. Is this price come with free 512MB card???

The free 512 Mb Kingston SD card is Canon package (maybe only Canon Sgp), so all G7 in Sgp will come with it.

Please post some pics once you got it! Thanks

Note not to be misled by the confusing 'without GST', which actually means 'before GST'. You need to factor in the GST when purchasing.

Geez, I don't understand why anyone is still posting 'without GST' (it's Before, not Without) stuffs. Most locals will be interested in the prices after GST...

I went to Cathay and tried G7 with my own SD card. Very well build, Menu and buttons, the best so far, very ergonomic for the size.

So here is what I want to post here, the noise comparison of ISO 200 and 400, in 10Mp (L) and 5.9Mp (M1) resolution.

The 5.9Mp noise looks better, with less 'hot pixels', but not much

Here is full frame pic:

The comparison side by side:

Larger 100% crop of those pics:
ISO 200 10Mp
ISO 200 6Mp
ISO 400 10Mp
ISO 400 6Mp

AP Funan selling the G7 at $860 inclusive of GST.

Tried one - really like the vintage design, especially the shutter release! It's a throw-back to cameras of two decades ago.

Yet I'd personally go for an S3, seems more voluminous in your hands!

Wouldn't mind the G7 for a back-up camera, that's for sure.

Anybody who has bought G7 has 420EX flash? Is it compatible? Thanks!

Too bad this cam lack RAW & 28mm wide! But the looks is a awsome! :thumbsup:

 

[Snoweagle]

Imagine i buy the G7 and use my 580EX on it. Looks very unbalanced.

 

[newmemberz]

hmmm....

undecided. F30 or G7?

 

[Snoweagle]

I'll go for G7.

 

[A70]

Is the smallest aperture 4.8? Even at tele end? Curious about it, since my A70 can do F2.8 to F8 at wide end and F4.8 to F8 at tele end.

Same as G7, f/4.8 is the "LARGEST" aperture at max tele. Aperture range at max tele : f/4.8 - f/8.0

Do you need high ISO or Hot Shoe?

high ISO would be very nice...
Since I'll be using as my daily camera.
hmm.... Seems Fujifilm ISO still better than G7 huh? (FYI, I have 30D as well)

Is the IS on G7 really helpful to take night shots/indoor?

btw, I love the G7 looks. :lovegrin:
