Fabulous camera! |
Did a lot of research before buying the G10. This is my 4th digital camera. I've been using it daily for a week now and I'm very impressed. The macro ability is excellent - even hand held. Built in scene settings (snow, indoor, sunset, kids & pets, etc.) in addition to full auto, meaning you can handle most common situations easily.
What sold me: 1st class build quality, incredible view screen, high resolution, direct access to exposure compensation, most exposure modes (AV, TV, Auto, Program, manual, movie and panoramic) and ISO via dedicated dials (not buried in menus!). Most other modes are only one level deep in a menu. Full manual is a snap to use, and RAW mode is easily available. The G10 has a hot shoe, but not a PC connection for external flash.
Small gripes: I wish the scenic modes were right on the main dial, but there are so many this might not be practical. The smallish optical viewfinder (tied to the zoom) is nice, but covers only about 3/4 of the actual view, so what can I really use it for except rough estimates?
I actually showed some of my G10 shots to a photo dept. technician and he thought they'd been taken with an SLR. If you are looking for very high quality images and SLR like versatility without the bulk of an SLR, get this camera. It's not pocket size, but it is compact and packs a lot of photographic power into that package. I've rigged a padded fanny pack to carry it easily. Others will use a coat pocket.
Summary: If you are tired of lugging around an SLR and lots of accessories (as I am) or even a large prosumer camera (like my Fuji S9000), you will love the G10. Worth the $400 price tag.
Suggestion: be careful with the LCD screen - it's big and beautiful and it would be a shame to damage it. I'm putting a protector on it as soon as I can. |

It's ok. |

This G10 is an upgrade to the G9 I previously owned. I am happier with the better quality of pictures in bright light, but still the camera leaves me wanting. I had hoped for better image quality at ISO 200-800. It's just truly disappointing your buddy pulls out a $200 point and shoot and turns out better quality pictures at low light level situations. I wanted this camera to be a compact DLR replacement but it is not a great camera for that. I guess this'll go on eBay and I will buy a DLR for spectacular photos and a P/S for decent indoor pictures. |

Great Camera |
|
Great camera big improvement from the earlier Canon G series, and a strong contender to take use away from a DSLR. |

Excellent camera! |

I don't have much to say, the camera speaks for itself. For a point and shoot camera, this is the absolute best that you can get. Excellent Camera. |

What The?!?! |
I bought this camera based on the reviews, intending to use it as an everyday camera that would produce images that could easily be used for publication. I had the Canon G2 years ago, and actually shot a magazine assignment with it (using Safesync so I wouldn't blow up the camera with my strobe equipment). That job paid me 850.00, which paid for my G2 and hooked me on digital and the Canon G-series.
Although many reviews had reservations at the G10's noise level above base ISO, I couldn't ignore the superlatives being draped over the G10. I've been spoiled by the legendary 6mp Fuji Finepix F30, which, although no longer in production for a couple of years now, is still considered to be the litmus test for low noise images at relatively high ISO. There are many geeks out there comparing the Canon G10 and the Panasonic LX3 against the F30, and quite a few are saying that the F30 is still the champ.
I have to say the F30 would beat the G10 at higher ISO's like Pacman beat De La Hoya in that recent embarrassing title fight. When I tested the G10 at ASA 200 at the highest JPEG level, which I thought was a reasonable ISO, I was horrified by the noise. Blown highlights and purple fringing.
Disappointed, I quickly returned it. It might be great at base ISO, but when you pay nearly $500.00 for a camera, you shouldn't have to run ISO 200 images through a noise processor to come up with a usable image. |
