Canon powershot g5 black professional point & shoot vintage camera complete kit
- Condition: Used
The Canon PowerShot G5 is a true classic in the world of professional compact cameras. Released as a high-end model with an original price around €800, this camera was designed for photographers who wanted full manual control in a compact yet extremely solid body.
Built like a tank, it features a high-quality anti-scratch body that still feels premium even today. The design includes many physical buttons and controls, allowing quick customization and giving you full creative freedom whether you shoot in manual mode or any other setting.
The camera is equipped with a sharp Canon 4x optical zoom lens (35–140mm equivalent) with a bright f/2.0–f/3.0 aperture. The lens produces beautiful, detailed images with excellent clarity and contrast. Even though it is a 5-megapixel camera, the image quality is impressive, especially the colors, which are more organic and closer to film than modern digital cameras.
The camera is in excellent condition considering its age. There are some small cosmetic imperfections on the body and light marks on the screen, but these are only visible when the screen is off and at certain angles. When the screen is on, it is super clear both in the menu and in live view. The lens optics are clean and clear, and the viewfinder is also clean and bright. The camera has been fully tested and works flawlessly, delivering excellent results.
On the front side, there was originally a small rubber grip which has been removed over time, something common with this model, but it does not affect the appearance or the functionality. Inside the battery compartment, the small clip that helps hold the battery is broken, which is also a known issue for this model. However, Canon designed the battery door with very strong and secure clips, so once closed, it holds the battery firmly in place with no issues at all. In practice, nothing is affected, and this is similar to other professional cameras where the battery is secured mainly by the door itself.
The camera uses Compact Flash (CF) cards, which are still easy to find today. It comes with a 512MB SanDisk card, which can store around 200 photos at the highest quality. You can also shoot more photos by lowering the resolution, or upgrade to a 1GB or 2GB CF card if needed.
The camera also features full manual mode, aperture priority, shutter priority, built-in flash, hot shoe for external flash, and a fully articulating flip and swivel screen which is very useful for creative angles and shooting flexibility. It is fully tested and ready to use, offering a unique shooting experience and beautiful image rendering that stands out even today.
The camera comes as a complete package, ready to use straight out of the box. It includes the camera, an original Canon BP-511 battery, a dual USB charger for convenient charging anywhere, a 512MB Compact Flash card, and a USB cable so you can easily transfer your photos directly to your computer without needing an extra card reader. An amazing opportunity to own a highly sought-after Canon G-series camera at a very friendly price, perfect for both enthusiasts and collectors.
