The editors didn't like

  • Now that SLRs have Live View
  • Movie modes and lower price tags
  • There’s less of a reason to stick with compacts

  • So it’s not ideal for sports p...

  • Noise management could be better above 400 ISO

  • Abstract:  This seems to be happening a lot lately, but it's exactly a year and a day since I reviewed the Canon PowerShot G9 . Time and technology march ever onwards, so today I'm taking a look at the G9's successor, unsurprisingly named the PowerShot G10. Actually...

  • The Canon PowerShot G10, then, has been over a year in the pipeline and yet on the face of it, the new camera isn't so very different from the old one.But there are some significant differences. The one that's likely to grab the most headlines is the G...

  • Abstract:  The Canon Powershot G10 has 14.7 megapixels and a wide angle, 5x optical zoom lens. It is one of the most advanced compact digital cameras you can buy. In fact I cant think of one that is more advanced. It has a full set of manual exposure modes, plus...

  • Wideangle lens; great image quality; accessible controls; good low-light performance
  • Some noise problems; not the fastest burst mode
  • Still the Godfather of compact cameras, the Canon G10 is a worthy successor to the G9. A wideangle lens, accessible controls and a list of features as long as your arm put dSLR power in your pocket ...
