With all of these lenses featuring identical focal length/aperture ranges and similar features (like vibration/optical stabilization), other lens aspects become the prominent differentiating factors. The G9 was released in 2007. RAW support was restored, and it has a larger LCD screen, and a 1/1.7″ sensor rather than the 1/1.8″ sensor on previous models. [3] Filters of this size are certainly not inexpensive, but... compatibility with filters makes for a more versatile lens.

Like three of the four lenses in this comparison, the Tamron 150-600 G1 features a 95mm front filter thread.Enjoy high quality performance, low cost prints and ultimate convenience with the PIXMA G series of refillable ink tank printers.

Reduced CCD resolution to 10MP. Vari-angle screen. Improved noise control – up to ISO 12800 in 2.5MP resolution. Second curtain sync for flash. Added HDMI Out. [16] For those needing focal lengths beyond 600mm, the G2 has new dedicated 1.4x and 2x teleconverters available. Wan, Don (November 2008). "Canon PowerShot G10 Review". Digital Photography Review . Retrieved 30 October 2009. In Q3 2015 Canon introduced the successors to its older G16 and S120 cameras. These were G5 X and G9 X respectively. Both of these use one inch sensor instead of the older 1/1.7". The G5 X is essentially a G7 X with an integral electronic viewfinder. The G16 had an optical viewfinder. The G5 X also has a DSLR-like form factor with viewfinder in the center instead of the rangefinder-like in the G16. The G9 X is similar in size to the S120 it replaced. The larger sensor necessitated that the zoom range was reduced from 5x to 3x i.e. 24 – 120mm to 28 – 84mm. With the introduction of the G9 X the S-series was discontinued and all top models are in G-series. It also meant the end of the use of 1/1.7" (9.5mm diagonal) sensors in Canon cameras and all top models being at least one inch (16mm diagonal) and other models having 1/2.3" (7.7mm diagonal). control layout and image processor and four times optical zoom lens.

Editor’s Note: Tamron’s repair service has a three day turnaround and is free for all customers. You don’t need to be part of a program unlike Canon’s. As I’ve stated, the chromatic aberration isn’t a major issue of any sort with the Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD. I couldn’t make the lens fringe or flare–and I’m sort of sad about the latter. I really, genuinely enjoy lens flare but it seems to have been engineered out of the Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 Di VC USD. Color Rendition Below is a feature comparison chart followed by the available maximum apertures by focal length for the lenses discussed above. The G7 marked a major change in the G series. Previous G series models had a fast lens, raw image format capture, and a tilt-and-swivel LCD. These were all considered [ by whom?] hallmarks of the G series, but were removed or altered for the G7. Some of the major changes included:
