Canon PowerShot G6 Spotted in the Wild...
It looks like the French shopping website Fnac.com may have inadvertently spilt the beans on the much-rumoured but as yet unseen Canon Powershot G6. It looks like a 7 megapixel version of the G5 to me, albeit with a slightly redesigned silver body. Fnac.com has a larger picture of the camera and the following specs are listed:
- 7.1 megapixel camera
- 3x optical zoom lens, equivalent to 35-140 mm on a 35mm camera
- Aperture range f/2.0-3.0
- Maximum file size of 3072 x 2304 pixels
- Supports JPEG, RAW, AVI formats
- 640 x 480 or 320 x 240 video
- CompactFlash Type I / II memory cards
- USB Interace
- 104 x 70 x 72 mm dimensions
- Weighs 375 grams
- PictBridge support
- Advertised price of 899,00 Euros
The following URL is working at the moment, but bear in mind that Fnac.com may well take it down once you all start visiting it!
UPDATE: Somewhat predictably the Fnac.com webpage for the G6 has now been taken offline…
Thanks to eagle-eyed PhotographyBLOG reader Joao Mestre for letting me know :-)
