Use a few easy tricks to get the most out of you photography.
The PowerShot G9 is a popular compact point-and-shoot camera produced by Canon. Although the PowerShot is user-friendly, there are some things you can do to get more from your photography experience. Canon offers a range of accessories for the PowerShot G9 that can improve your storage capacity, protect your camera and enhance your photos.
Memory
Although the Canon PowerShot G9 comes with built-in memory, it's always a good idea to have more space. Purchase a 4 gigabyte (GB) memory card and you'll have plenty of room for all your photos. You can also purchase 2 GB memory cards if you wish to swap out memory options. Having a memory card also gives you the option to buy a card reader and put the photos directly onto your computer.
Batteries and Backups
The Canon PowerShot G9 requires a lot of power, and the last thing you want is to run out of batteries right at a pivotal moment. Carry some extra batteries with you wherever you go if you plan on using the PowerShot. You can fill a plastic bag with extra batteries, a microfiber cloth to wipe the lens and a spare memory card as your "back-up bag". You can also place your camera in the bag if you change environments suddenly to keep the lens from fogging up.
Protection
One of the features of the PowerShot G9 is the big, glossy LCD screen. You can protect this delicate part of your camera with a transparent film, such as the ones made for PDAs. You can also purchase a Canon Semi-Hard Leather Case to protect your PowerShot when traveling or on-location. Canon also offers a special waterproof bag, the Waterproof Case WP-DC21, for underwater shoots.
Lighting and Reflections
You can get a quality soft lighting effect when placing a small white cloth over the flash on your PowerShot. If you're dealing with reflections, consider purchasing a polarizing filter to reduce glare. Canon also offers lighting accessories, such as the EX Series Speedlight, to further control the lighting in your environment.
