During this review of the Canon G10, I will try to find
out if it fulfill my
expectations and needs as a enthusiastic amateur.
|
Lets start to compare it to its older sister the Powershot G9.
|
Even thought you can easily see that those cameras belong to the same family they
are and looks quite different
in there look and feel, a short overview of the most important differences will follow.
They also uses different lenses
the G9 is a 7.4-44.4mm 6x zoom lens (35mm equivalent: 35-210mm)
while the G10 has a wider but shorter 6.1-30.5mm
5x lens (35mm equivalent: 28-140mm)
(More about that and more in the tech data page)
The G10 is slightly larger and heavier
G9 (WxHxD) 106.4 x 71.9 x 42.5 mm 320g
G10 (WxHxD) 109.1 x 77.7 x 45.9 mm 350g and blacker :0)
|
|
The G10 also have one more selector knob, so the iso selector on the left of the G9
has now become a exposure compensation knob on the G10.
And the shooting mode selector on the G9 has been replaced with a dual
mod selector / ISO selector knob on the G10 (I really like the exposure compensation knob)
|
|
Not much to say a bout the back, looks pretty much the same as the G9 and there is
only small differences in the menu, except for the added "My Menu" page that make it
possible to create and store custom menus for different needs. |
|
|
There is also lots of accessories for both of those cameras from Canon.
I will not list them here so I suggest you take a look at Amazon.com for a wide
range of Canon Powershot G10 accessories and Canon Powershot G9 accessories
both from Canon and from 3rd part producers.
