Digital camera reviews of Canon Powershot G10 14.7MP Digital Camera with 5x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom
Digital camera Review: 99.9% perfect!
Summary: 5 Stars
What can I say that hasn't already been said about this remarkable camera? It is hands down the best point and shoot camera on the market today. I know many professional photographers that reach for this camera INSTEAD of the old professional standbys. You'd have to nit-pick to find something wrong with this camera. Canon did their homework well on the G10 and it looks like no doubt the up and coming G11 will be setting new standards. Lensmateonline has great adapters made specifically just for the G10. Without a doubt the G10 also has one of the best batteries that we've ever seen on a product like this, as it seems to last forever. If you're a professional, or just want the best point and shoot camera on the market, the Canon G10 will make you a happy camper! The video that this camera shoots is also quite remarkable. Google for the best price and you won't be sorry that you bought this camera. I take a LOT more pictures than I ever have before, and it's all because of how well made this camera is, and how well it does everything.Digital camera Review: A COMPACT DIGITAL CAMERA FOR SERIOUS USERS.
Summary: 5 Stars
IN THE G10, CANON HAS CREATED A COMPACT DIGITAL CAMERA THAT IS A WORTHY AND EASY TO CARRY COMPANION TO MY DSLR. THIS IS THE ONE THAT HAS MY MOST DESIRABLE FEATURES AND QUALITY AT A FAIR PRICE.
IMAGE QUALITY AT 100 AND 200 IS SHARP AND SHOWS LITTLE NOISE. 400 IS NOISIER BUT IS ACCEPTABLE AND ESSENTIALLY OF LITTLE OR NO CONSEQUENCE ESPECIALLY IN 4 X 6 PRINTS. IMAGE STABILIZATION FUNCTIONS PROPERLY AS IT SHOULD. THE WIDE 28 TO 140 LENS IS FAST AND LOSES LITTLE APERTURE AT FULL ZOOM COMPARED TO MOST OTHER SIMILAR CAMERAS. AN OPTICAL VIEWFINDER, HIGHER RATIO ZOOM RANGE AND INTERNAL FLASH ARE WELCOMED FEATURES MISSING ON AT LEAST ONE MUCH HIGHER PRICED CAMERA.
RAW CAPTURE AND RAW/JPEG FURTHER ADD TO VERSATILITY AND HIGHEST IMAGE QUALITY CUSTOMIZATION WHEN NECESSARY OR DESIRED. A SHARP, REAL MACRO RANGE ALLOWS FOR CAPTURE OF VERY FINE DETAIL OF SMALL OBJECTS.
FEATURES SUCH AS ISO, EXPOSURE COMPENSATION, AND SHOOTING MODE ARE NOW TRADITIONALLY SET USING CONVENIENT DIALS INSTEAD OF CUMBERSOME MENUS.
USERS WITH LESS CRITICAL STANDARDS AND/OR LESS EXPERIENCE CAN USE A OR P WITH EXCELLENT RESULTS, BUT WILL FIND THEMSELVES SOON LEARNING AND UTILIZING THE ADVANCED FEATURES THIS GEM OF A CAMERA OFFERS.

Summary: 5 Stars
Canon Powershot G10 14.7MP Digital Camera with 5x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom I am a serious amateur photographer. I want a camera that will perform in all types of situations. The G-10 is a successor to the prior top end range finder digital cameras in the Canon line. It is more expensive than most range finder digitals but I think it is well worth it.
The new model offers a 5X Optical Zoom (28 MM lens). It allows full control of ISO and White Balance and a number of other features that can be toggled - like Image Stabilization. Plus the image quality is up to 14.7 MP. I normally shoot with a 40D SLR but there are times when I simply do not want to carry along lenses and the other equipment. I first used this on a trip to Veracruz, Mexico and tried to push the limits of the camera. I don't like flash photography except in exceptional circumstances. With the available controls I was able to get the shots I wanted. That included some macro shots which would have been chancy with any other range finder camera. The G-10 has a large view finder to be able to see what you shot.
I will continue to use my SLR but the handy size and bounty of features will make this a prime candidate for everyday use. If you want to see some of the results of this camera - check out my shots from Tajin or the Cortez landing site on my FLickr site at [...]
Digital camera Review: A Nice Little Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this camera a few weeks ago. This was my first digital camera after years with my faithful Canon AE-1 (the film processing got expensive!). I am very satisfied with the camera. It is the first autofocus lense that I am truly satisfied with the response time--I leave the lense on continuous focus. It pays to spend time with the manual. The icons may be intuitive to someone with digital experience, but I found study helpful. It was also important to set up the default settings by stepping through the manual page by page. Also, I purchased the teleconverter attachment which I recommend to anyone seeking to extend the 5X range. It is important to set the camera to teleconverter to avoid vignetting. All in all, I have been pleased with the purchase.
