Canon's new PowerShot G2 is a precise and powerful tool for professional and advanced amateur photographers who want a very high-resolution digital camera that offers quality, performance, and reliability, similar to fine 35mm SLR cameras. The PowerShot G2's 4-megapixel CCD provides high resolution for prints that are comparable to the products of fine 35mm cameras. This increase in resolution produces a dramatic difference in image quality over the standard 2-megapixel class cameras. The CCD is also equipped with primary color filters (RGB) for superior color reproduction. While in the past, primary color filters caused images to be somewhat noisier than complementary color filter, the G2 includes a new IC with improved signal processing to compensate for this. So images are not only rich in detail but also include true-to-life color, and lower noise levels than ever. The G2 features a genuine Canon 3x Optical Zoom lens giving an 35mm equivalent focal length of 34 to 102mm. Less

The Canon PowerShot G9 is a compact powerhouse of a camera. 6x optical zoom and Canon optical image stabilization are packed in with superior, DIGIC III image processing. iSAPS Technology uses an internal database of thousands of photographs to calculate the best possible focus, exposure, and white-balance for taking that perfect shot. The Canon PowerShot G9 sports a large, 3 inch LCD screen that provides a wide angle look at your work and utilizes an anti-glare, anti-scratch coating to protect your hardware from accidental nicks and scratches.

I've been a fan and owner of several Olympus Camedia digital cameras over the past couple of years, but my 35mm SLR camera of choice is the Canon EOS Rebel II. Since I've been extremely happy with both, but always wondered what type of digital performance Canon was able to generate, I decided to... Read full review »

The new Canon Powershot G2 is the digital camera I had hoped for when its predecessor the Canon Powershot G1 was introduced a bit more than a year ago. Here?s what I had to say about the Canon Powershot G1 (review 2/01) ?Where does the G1 fail to measure up? Disappointingly, in a large number of... Read full review »

Introduction

My Canon A620 digital camera has been a faithful backup camera for over a year now. It does pretty much everything I ask of it and it's made me a big fan of Canon's A-series cameras. The next step up from this series of camera is Canon's G-series, which is supposed to be the... Read full review »

I am not a professional photographer but I have owned several digital cameras, including the Canon G2, G4 and G6. My review here of the latest G9 is based on personal use and a comparison to previous G series cameras. My comments will be general in nature and intended for non-professional shoppers...
