This Canon PowerShot G16 digital camera, launched in 2013, has been with me for over a decade. I've changed its lithium battery three times, and currently, all functions are still working well. Despite the convenience of immediate editing and uploading with an Apple iPhone for everyday photography, which has become a handy tool, I still often take this digital camera out to experience the feeling of operating a camera. The Canon PowerShot G16 features a 5x zoom lens with a 135 equivalent focal length of 28mm-140mm. To maintain image quality without using digital zoom, I can attach the original 1.4x teleconverter lens (TC-DC58E) from Canon, extending the telephoto focal length to 196mm.
這台2013年上市的Canon PowerShot G16隨身數位相機，我已經使用了十幾年了，鋰電池也換過三輪，目前各項功能都還很正常，雖然Apple iPhone手機拍的照片具立即編輯和上傳的便利性，已經成為日常生活照的攝影利器，有時候我還是常常帶這台數位相機出門，回味一下操作相機的感覺。Canon PowerShot G16的鏡頭具備五倍變焦，135等效焦距是28mm-140mm，為了能夠在不使用數位變焦，維持原解析度的影像品質下，可外掛原廠1.4倍望遠鏡頭(TC-DC58E )，讓望遠的焦距達到196mm。

During a recent visit to Keelung's Badaozi Fishing Port, I exclusively used the Canon PowerShot G16 + TC-DC58E for photography. The weather that day was overcast, and the camera's white balance faithfully portrayed the simple fishing port, lacking the vibrant tones of smartphone photos, which made it feel like a true representation of what was seen. Several small fishing boats equipped with high-wattage lights were moored in the port, used for attracting light-sensitive fish or squid during nighttime fishing, also known as 'lantern fishing'.
這次到基隆八斗子漁港一遊，就完全使用Canon PowerShot G16 + TC-DC58E來拍攝。當天天氣是陰天，相機本身的白平衡忠實的呈現樸實的漁港，少了智慧手機照片的鮮豔色調，讓人感覺到這才是真正的所見及所得。漁港內停了數艘釣小管的漁船，船上裝載有高瓦數的電燈，夜間可吸引趨光性的魚群或小管靠近捕撈，也稱作燈火漁業。
