Canon PowerShot G10 review

No matter how small they make them, you can't fit a DSLR in your pocket. But is the brand-new PowerShot G10 is the next best thing?

Good Points

The G10 is extremely versatile for a compact and has many features found on more expensive, larger DSLR's. As a hill walker, I was attracted to the reported image quality, raw recording and the size/weight compared to a DSLR and have been delighted by the results.

Bad Points

Pricey for a compact, but you do get what you pay for. The multitude of features and recording options may be daunting to the novice, however, to buy this camera and only use it in “point and shoot” mode would be a crime.

Good Points

Excellent IQ at low ISO (and, after reading several reviews, better than expected at higher ISOs) Very easy to use Built like a tank

Bad Points

No HD vid Could have done with a slightly longer zoom A flip-screen like previous G series cameras would have been good too

Overall score: 9.1
