You read our special preview of this camera, right?

The photographs below were taken at default settings, with the ISO fixed at 100. The image quality and resolution were at their highest levels. The Canon 16-35 mm lens was used for all the shots except for those with the cars racing. For those photos, I used my own Canon 75-300 IS lens.

>> Photos are from a preproduction camera and image quality is subject to change! <<

Photos 1-7 were taken at the Monterey Historic auto races at Laguna Seca.

Photos 8-11 were taken in Chinatown. Photos were taken at the same time as those from the PowerShot G6 gallery.

Photo 12 was taken in SF's Marina district.

Photos 13-19 are from Stanford University. Photos taken alongside the G6 as well.

Clicking on the thumbnail will display a reduced, 800 x 600 image. Clicking on the link below that will show the full-size (large!) image. Please do not judge the photo quality from any image except for the full-size image, as these smaller images were recompressed when they were downsized.

I've noted any special modes I used underneath the photo. You can click on "View EXIF data" to get additional information about each photo.
