best canon i've ever bought from Wolfcamera.com When we were looking for a new camera, I asked an employee her opinion, as her father was a professional photographer. He recommended the Canon G 10. I bought the camera on Amazon. from Amazon.com The image quality is the cake of the G10, the ease of function adjustment is the icing on the cake... Being able to shoot in a very wide range of conditions, and have the large view screen preview what you're getting is a serious advance from my previous point and shoot. from Amazon.com Two days after my purchase, Canon announced the G11 -- a 10 mega pixel camera rather than the 14MP of my new G10, but with better low light noise levels. But I think I will stay with the G10 since shooting at ISO 80 to 200 is providing splendid image quality. from Amazon.com This is the best point and shoot camera I have ever used. While it is also the most expensive, in this case you are certainly getting what you pay for. The buttons are crisp and the screen is huge. from Amazon.com I started shooting digital with a 2 MP Canon digital Elph. It cost nearly as much as the G10 with 1/7th the megapixels and has a much smaller zoom range. from Amazon.com I received the camera promptly. However, the flash did not work and I have had to send it back to Canon for warranty repair. I also contacted Canon re: the issue and, while they were helpful, they told me to send it to the "only authorized Canon repair Station" in Indiana. from Amazon.com This camera takes beautiful pictures in daylight, but once you go above about 400 iso, the pictures get noisy. I expected this with a point & shoot, but didn't expect the noise to be as bad as it is at higher isos. from Amazon.com I wanted a good point & shoot backup to my Canon EOS 5D's. The handsome and above average handling Canon PowerShot G10 fails to fill that spot. from Amazon.com I bought this camera a few months ago along with the Magic Lantern guide (which I also highly recommend) and I have found it to be an exceptional companion/backup to my Nikon D90. I was turned on to this camera after experiencing serious camera-envy from playing around with my father's G9 during the christmas holidays. from Amazon.com
