Editorial Review: Product Description: Given the success of Canon's highly acclaimed G Series, it's no surprise that ambitious photographers have been eagerly anticipating the next model in its evolution. The wait has paid off handsomely with the introduction of the PowerShot G9. In image quality and functionality, the G9 stands above the competition with 12.1 megapixels of resolution, a 6x optical zoom with Optical Image Stabilizer, and RAW mode for the ultimate in creative control. Sophisticated design and high-quality construction complement the technology and make the G9 a camera to be reckoned with. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - G9 still has the edge on G10 when it comes to portraitsBest Buy outlets have Canon G9 on clearance for $350, which is about the max I believe you should be paying for it nowadays. The model is quickly becoming obsolete. The next generation of prosumer cameras has already entered the the market (Canon G10, Panasonic LX3, Nikon P6000, etc). So unless you get a really good deal, there are few compelling reasons to buy G9 any more. One caveat, however: if portrait taking is of importance to you, this is the area where G9 still delivers the goods (more ... Read More Rating:  - Works great!I am a professional photographer and this is the only camera I use. When I am exhibiting (usually large works of 1m2), other photographers will come up to me with clunky SLRs around their necks asking what I shoot with. When I pull out the tiny G9 they think I am joking. Great camera. Works best in manual mode. I was afraid to get it because I had read so much about bad quality control (factory defects), but I haven't had any problems. Rating:  - A Disappointment - bewareI have only had this camera a few months and have not used it very much. There is already so much dust INSIDE the lens that it severely degrades image quality. I take great care of my equipment, so this is not the result of harsh conditions. If you are counting on the built-in lens cover to protect the lens, think again. Any time I shoot slightly into sunlight now, the photos are basically worthless. With only 3 major uses of this camera, that's a crime. Also, the noise level above ... Read More Rating: - great camera; one star off for no WYSIWYG, ever!The G9 is a wonderful small format all-in-one camera. I've shot around 12,000 images in the last 4 months, literally living in the western National Parks, and I've been very pleased. The anti-shake is a real speed boost in low light...clarity of images is superb. Yet problems remain. Who could design a camera where BOTH the viewfinder (so important in bright daylight and for reading glasses wearers in various situations where one doesn't have time to put them on and see the LCD clearly), AND the LCD ... Read More Rating: - maybe it takes good picturesI bought the G9 several months ago and planned to use it as an underwater camera. I am leaving on a dive trip in several weeks and checked the new camera. The screen is cracked. I have yet to take the first picture with the camera. A cracked screen of a brand new camera is evidently not covered by warranty to the tune of $170. Well .... maybe it takes good picture. Signed pissed off Browse for similar items by category:
