Product Description
Advanced amateur photographers are a judicious assemble, and they’ve flocked to Canon’s G-Series for its ability to meet and exceed their demands. The third-generation PowerShot G10 is a stunning successor, biased with stubborn specs like 14.7 megapixels, a 28mm wide-angle lens, and Canon’s new DIGIC 4 Image Processor for notably improved face and shift detection. This is a camera that supports and nurtures creativity, with a full range of shooting and recording modes and compatibility with exciting accessories including Speedlite flashes.

This camera is awe-inspiring for what it is supposed to be; a compact camera with lots of power and versatility. Everyone likes my party pictures because they beat everyone elses compact cameras. Face detection is awe-inspiring. The camera really lets you be as creative as you want to be or it can do it all for you. It’s idiot proof (my GF took it to france and did ok!) I just bought the underwater housing and that is gonna be so awe-inspiring.
My D300 is a lot better but i’ve been using it a lot less lately. I Try to keep the ISO on 80. It is noisy but high ISO pics i turn blk and white and they look fantastic. Seriously its no huge deal. Also i picked this over the lumix because the controls are simple to reach, really simple!
I gave it 1 star just to piss people off and to get attention on my review. =b (Haters feel free to despise.) My conclusion is that i like it a lot and you should try it out.

dust gets on the sensor and in the lens casing very promptly. don’t take it anywhere the wind is blowing. and don’t count on canon to repair it. not a problem with one, but many of these cameras. takes fantastic pix though.

DOES NOT LIVE UP TO HYPE AT ALL…so far.
THIS IS A GREAT CAMERA… IF YOUR FAMILY VACATION PLANS ARE A TRIP TO THE CENTER OF THE SUN…….other than that it is a very very noisy low light camera.
So I agree with the other reviewer, if you are a bright light outside type, then get it,….. no problems there…nice!!!
If you bought into the low light DITCH-IT 4 processor hype, then it is a real let down.
My ancient 1 megapixel powershot (8 years ancient) did just as well, in the low light noise area…with zero image stabilization.
I will do some more tests, but so far this camera is a major let down.
Requires a lot of light, and looks like it has the RAW measles above ISO 200.
Honest, wait for more reviews to come in, by the way, I have a Rebel, an XTI, and an XSI as well. Also 4 other Canon Digitals, I am (was) a Canon fan, and thought this would be a breakthrough product…but it wasnt.
Simply cannot give up on the hype.
Unless someone can get a better handle on the low light noise settings, it wouldnt take a Nostradamus to predict this camera will get yanked quicker than the G9.
As usual if you try to compesate with one board sparkle, it has the Frankensteins lighted lightning labratory garish effect.
I dont really shoot JPEGS much so I dont know about those yet.
Sweet much shoot raw. XSI was less noisy in raw mode.
I really had hoped this would be the first practical digital do all art museum camera. I will try some more tests at the Detroit Art Institute on all types of light and media, but for now any hopes I might have had are shattered.
If you do have excellent indoor lighting at ISO 100 and 200 under excellent light the color is fantastic very nice pictures. In most museums they wont let you use sparkle, same with other artsy places. Wide angle is nice fantastic museum camera from that perspective……but low light and Image stabilization are a must…..

Sigh. This looks like a fantastic camera, apart from (1) Canon has fallen prey to the Megapixel Marketing Myth, and (2) the proprietary $70 battery pack.
I get superb poster-size blowups from my 7 megapixel Canon S710. And I can carry around cheap rechargeable AA batteries, or pick up Duracells at any newsstand or grocery store in a pinch. But I covet some of the G-series features (sparkle hotshoe, metal body, SLR-like exposure dial, etc.).
I’d like to see Canon build a camera in the G10 form factor with AA batteries and a better (lower-pixel, lower-noise) sensor chip.

I have many Canon cameras–35mm film and DSLR models. I bought the G10 to give to someone. But, I soon learned that this model is flawed. It’s a fantastic camera for shots in perfect open-air light situations, but when the ISO increases the metaphors are the worst pixilated metaphors I’ve seen. For example, at ISO 400 and minus 1 stop exposure, even RAW metaphors aren’t recoverable. At ISO 200 you’ll have to work in Photoshop to get a excellent image.
Generally, photographers consider that the small sensors used in P&S cameras barely make the grade–they can’t handle low-light and the on camera sparkle is an out of control light-source. The G10 goes a long way to prove how terrible it can get with a P&S.
That said, the reason I bought the G10 from Amazon is because of their no-hassle refund and I’m glad I did in this case.
