Canon PowerShot G16 iFixit disassembly guide
Before Sony ever put a 1"-type sensor in a compact, there was the Canon PowerShot G series. If you wanted extensive controls without all the weight of a DSLR, the G-series compacts were where you looked. The PowerShot G16 was the last in that line, sporting a 12MP 1/1.7" sensor before Canon ushered in a series of 1" compacts with a similar form factor.
The G16 may be gone from retailer's shelves, but it is not forgotten. It's also the subject of a recently published iFixit disassembly guide. The good people at iFixit publish product-specific disassembly guides, written to help common folk make simple repairs to their own electronic devices. They're also an easy way to peek inside a modern digital camera without voiding your warranty. This week, we look inside the Canon PowerShot G16.
