Canon PowerShot G9 X Mark II
The Canon PowerShot G9 X Mark II was released by Canon in February 2017. It kept the small size of previous PowerShot models, making it 3 grams lighter than its predecessor. It replaced the Digic 6 processor with a Digic 7 processor, making the camera operations faster. It features a 1.0-inch, 20.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor. The camera is in the Canon PowerShot G series.

Canon Inc
Canon Inc. (; Hepburn: ) is a Japanese multinational corporation headquartered in Ōta, Tokyo, specializing in optical, imaging, and industrial products, such as lenses, cameras, medical equipment, scanners, printers, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Canon has a primary listing on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the TOPIX Core 30 and Nikkei 225 indexes. It used to have a secondary listing on the New York Stock Exchange. Name The company was originally named (). In 1934, it produced the ''Kwanon'', a prototype for Japan's first-ever 35mm camera with a focal-plane-based shutter. In 1947, the company name was changed to ''Canon Camera Co., Inc.'', shortened to ''Canon Inc.'' in 1969. The name Canon comes from Buddhist bodhisattva (), previously transliterated as Kuanyin, Kwannon, or Kwanon in English. History 1933–1970 The origins of Canon date back to the founding of Precision Optical Instruments Laboratory in Japan in 1933 by Takeshi Mitarai, ...

DIGIC
Digital Imaging Integrated Circuit (often styled as "DiG!C") is Canon Inc.'s name for a family of signal processing and control units for digital cameras and camcorders. DIGIC units are used as image processors by Canon in its own digital imaging products. Several generations of DIGICs exist, and are distinguished by a version number suffix. Currently, DIGIC is implemented as an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) designed to perform high speed signal processing as well as the control operations in the product in which it has been incorporated. Over its numerous generations, DIGIC has evolved from a system involving a number of discrete integrated circuits to a single chip system, many of which are based around the ARM instruction set. Custom firmware for these units has been developed to add features to the cameras. DIGIC in cameras Original DIGIC The original DIGIC was used on the PowerShot G3 (Sep 2002), Canon S1 IS (Mar 2004), A520 (Mar 2005), and other cam ...

CMOS Sensor
An active-pixel sensor (APS) is an image sensor, which was invented by Peter J.W. Noble in 1968, where each pixel sensor unit cell has a photodetector (typically a pinned photodiode) and one or more active transistors. In a metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) active-pixel sensor, MOS field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) are used as amplifiers. There are different types of APS, including the early NMOS APS and the now much more common complementary MOS (CMOS) APS, also known as the CMOS sensor. CMOS sensors are used in digital camera technologies such as cell phone cameras, web cameras, most modern digital pocket cameras, most digital single-lens reflex cameras (DSLRs), mirrorless interchangeable-lens cameras (MILCs), and lensless imaging for, e.g., blood cells. CMOS sensors emerged as an alternative to charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensors and eventually outsold them by the mid-2000s. The term ''active pixel sensor'' is also used to refer to the individual pixel sensor i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Canon PowerShot G
The Canon PowerShot G is a series of digital cameras introduced by Canon in its PowerShot line in 2000. The G series cameras are Canon's flagship compact models aimed at photography enthusiasts desiring more flexibility than a typical point-and-shoot without the bulk of a digital single-lens reflex camera. The G series has a lithium-ion battery, full manual exposure control, an articulated LCD screen (G7, G9, G10, G15, and G16 have a fixed screen), Raw image format capture (all models except the G7), a lens with a wider maximum aperture than standard PowerShot models, remote capture (except the G11), and faster image processing. The range also includes a hot shoe (except the G7 X and G9 X) for an external flash, including Canon's EX range. New models in the series (all containing "X" in their name) have larger sensors than most other point-and-shoot cameras. In recent years, smartphones and interchangeable-lens cameras have squeezed the compact point-and-shoot market, and as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
List Of Large Sensor Fixed-lens Cameras
This is a list of large sensor fixed-lens cameras, also known as premium compact cameras or high-end point-and-shoot cameras. These are digital cameras with a non- interchangeable lens and a 1.0‑type (“1‑inch”) image sensor or larger, excluding smartphones and camcorders. Without a lens mount, a substantial portion of the lens assembly can be fitted inside of the camera body right up to the sensor. This makes it possible to fit a larger sensor or a lens with a larger aperture compared to a camera and interchangeable lens combination of similar size. Cameras with a prime lens The Leica Q series, Fujifilm X100 series, and Ricoh GR series are popular cameras in this category. This list excludes cameras with removable sensors, such as the Phase One XC. Cameras with a zoom lens Almost all zoom models with larger sensors have been discontinued in favor of their interchangeable lens counterparts that offer more flexibility. Current compact mo ...
