Digital Canon Powershot G3 Camera

Friday August 1, 2003 – Today 11 years ago – took this first (test) picture late at night 1 AM with the great prosumer grade digital Canon Powershot G3 camera bought that same day … within 2 weeks after first starting digital photography with a very simple camera (see ① memo 20140722).
Image of the dutch newspaper NRC taken with available light , handheld 1/8 sec , iso 75.
With this Canon G3 camera also movie clips (320 x 240) up to 3 minutes with sound are possible – however for scenes with a lot of detail (like a forest) video quality was poor .. because of image compression due to memory / card limitations those days.

The original three megapixel PowerShot G1 was announced at Photokina 2000 (September 2000), just less than a year later (August 2001) they announced the four megapixel PowerShot G2 with a fairly significant range of improvements. A year after that at Photokina 2002 Canon announced the new four megapixel PowerShot G3, with a sleek new body design, new control layout and image processor and four times optical zoom lens.

Start Digital Photography July 2003

First encounter with digital photography July 28, 2003 at the Nort Sea beach in Katwijk aan Zee, Holland – I was very impressed at my first encounter with digital photography starting July 20th 2003 using a simple Konica Revio C2 camera. A lovely very small quick fixed focus camera for 1280×960 picts, which also allowed making 10 second video clips with no sound, my first experience with filming altogether.
