Votre avis :

Chunky, but that's a small price to pay for the finest camera yet to bridge the SLR-compact divide

The G10 is compact but it packs plenty of manual features and is ideal for an enthusiast who doesn't want to lug around a D-SLR. We found it to be very well-suited to low-light photography and macro shots, but it will perform well in any situation.

No DSLR replacement, but perfect for ambitious amateurs or pros looking for a new toy

We feel the G10 has received a set of valuable upgrades over the G9, particularly controls on the top plate and there are distinct performance improvements too. Images are very good with very slight softness by default but the lens is a cracker. Although not a fan of ever-increasing pixel counts, here Canon has carried off the G10’s resolution boost well helping to produce a camera that is sure to appeal. Looked at as a whole, the G10 is a worthy addition to the G-series lineage able to produce great images and provide excellent performance.

There is however, a caveat in that I’m not convinced by the price tag. At a quid short of £500, the G10 falls into the price threshold of budget DSLRs and as such it may seem a steep price to pay given the other benefits afforded by a lens interchangeable DSLR.

Okay, so it’s pricey but it is a feature rich, responsive and capable of superb results and it is a distinct improvement over the G9. Canon has just about got the balance right and as such this camera is sure to be a real winner.
