Almost 15 million pixels go into the CCD of the Powershot G10 CCD. And those pixels give you an outstanding image quality, plus an amazing choice of cropping options with the final image.

Unlike, say the Canon A590IS model, which is geared to amateurs, the Powershot G10 is very much a prosumer model. The list of features alone make that clear.

The G10 features a 28mm wide angle lens and couples that with a 5x zoom. Optical Image Stabilisation helps you to keep the image sharp even when using the long end of the zoom - very important for anyone who can’t hand-hold a camera as steadily as before. The image stabilisation feature should mean that more of your shots should come out sharp.

The lcd monitor is a 3.0-inch Pure Color LCD II screen. That makes it much easier to line up your shots - you won’t need to squint anymore to see what’s on the screen. If you’ve never used a large lcd screen digital camera before then you’ll be astonished at just how much easier it makes life. The Canon Powershot offers a really beautiful display.

Canon have also added their DIGIC 4 image processor. The DIGIC 4 offers faster operation and enhanced image quality - something that everyone will make use of.

The Powershot G10 is truly a stunning example of engineering and design. For most people it will be a more practical alternative to an SLR. It’s certainly not the smallest digital ‘compact’ on the market, it’s probably one of, if not the best specified and well designed cameras available today.
