Canon PowerShot G7 10MP Digital Camera with 6x Image-Stabilized Optical Zoom
Hey I actually do not have this exact camera, I have the much older G2, but I just want to plug in and say as an amateur photog with little idea of how to do much more than point and shoot at things I like, I have been completely amazed at how often the capabilities of the G2 have earned me major praise from folks on my picture quality. I’ve been offered one job doing photography, and am the one person who’s private photos of a festival have been specially invited to be submitted for future promo pieces. Not even counting the many folks who want copies of my pics, 8×10 blowups, or say that should be a postcard, etc. etc.
Even with a broken viewer button on my camera, I’ve been so impressed by my G2 photo quality that I’m loathe to “upgrade”… and if I do, I’m sticking with the Canon G series.
So, if you’re an average photog, who likes to have people rave over your photos — don’t go anywhere else, stay with the canon G series. (uh, and remember to learn how to focus on a digital camera, or use the flower button for closeups… that’s it, all else is done for you).
Or, if like me, you want good quality photos of yr kids to keep forever, again, buy this.
Unfurtunely this camera is uncomfortable to use. The worst fault: you can see part of lens while you are wathing trhu viewfinder. The neck strap is very thin. A wrist strap could be better.
I was just about to buy this camera when I found out that you couldn’t shoot in the RAW format.
After shooting exclusively RAW for the last year and knowing all the benefits of it, I can’t bring myself
to buy this camera now.
This is the best camera that I have had! It takes great pictures.
Have had an Olympus 4.0M.for 4 years and been very happy with it. As a gift I got this Canon and was very diappointed in the color quality and sharpness. Shot about 600 pictures people were blurred,not crisp and dim even on a sunny day. Had to return it.Don’t buy
