Canon PowerShot G11
The Canon PowerShot G11 is a compact digital camera introduced in 2009 as part of Canon's enthusiast-oriented G-series. It features a 10-megapixel sensor, a flip-out articulated LCD, RAW file support and a zoom lens, positioned when new as a pocketable companion to a DSLR for photographers who wanted manual control in a small body.
At UK auction in 2026, hammer prices for the PowerShot G11 have ranged from about £60 to £240, with a median around £120 — these are saleroom results, so retail and dealer prices sit higher. Condition and completeness drive value, with clean, tested examples including charger and battery pulling the top end, while untested or cosmetically tired bodies sell for less. The G11 today sits in a narrow band where enthusiast buyers are willing to pay for working examples because it remains usable as a small-sensor compact with manual control.
