Who needs another compact camera?  Everyone does! Well at least every couple years or so.  That’s what the camera manufacturers would love to have us believe.

Well I just had to share this Tasty Tech Toy with my BKBlog readers. It is sexy, has incredible specifications and from all I have read produces outstanding images due to its larger than average compact camera sensor size. In fact its sensor is over 15% larger than Four Thirds format cameras, six times the size of the sensors in previous Canon G-series compacts and over two times the size of the sensor in Nikon’s 1 cameras.   I think this Canon is really ging to make waves and is perfect for those not wishing to carry their DSLR, but want better image captures than the classic compact cameras that are presently available. Here is a summary of the Canon Powershot GI X Specifications?

  • 14MP 1.5″ CMOS sensor (18.7 x 14mm)
  • 28-112mm F2.8-5.8 lens

  • 3.0″, 920,000 dot swivelling LCD

  • 14-bit Raw shooting
  • 4.5fps continuous shooting (up to 6 frames)
  • 6.8Wh NB-10L battery rated at 250 shots (CIPA standard)
