Customer Review: A heavy camera with a great LCD screen but a lousy clickwheel
This camera is a lot heavier than all the Sony Point and Shoot cameras i have used until now.
Here is a summary of the positives and negatives

POSITIVES
1. Great 3 inch LCD screen
2. Fast startup
3. Uses SDHC cards so you can use an 8GB or 16GB and never worry about memory full
4. Value Price
5. Compact and lightweight battery charger with worldwide 100 ~220v compatability

NEGATIVES
1. Horrible Rotating Wheel. Many of the functions you can use the click wheel, but for the selections you have to use the rotating wheel, it is a nightmare getting use to this
2.Lag time to shoot is still slow, a common problem with compact point and shoots
3. No touch screen
4. Not slim - Stubby and a wee bit heavy
5. If you don’t like the ubiquitous silver color - no other choice

Customer Review: Not what I expected, Willing to give it chance, Ultimately satisfied
(Purchased on 01/05/2009)
Received camera much later than when I ordered. Not a problem wasn’t in hurry anyway. Once in hand camera seemed very solid. I had read all the reviews from amazon and elsewhere, and even considered getting the Nikon P6000 in its stead. Two issues arose immediately. First, was a light banding issue in the LCD. Whenever I pointed the camera in the direction of a light source (ie. a energy saving light bulb hanging from the ceiling and its reflection in a mirror) perfect solid bands of light would streak across the LCD screen emanating from the lights. I contacted Canon and they seemed baffled by this. They suggested that it might have been firmly jostled during shipping and affected the processor. If I sent it to them I was looking at a two week turn around, or I could just send it back to the shipper as defective, which I ultimately did. The Second issue was an error message regarding its ability to write to the card. The actual wording of this message escapes me but I did bring it up with Canon at the time called. He was not sure what was wrong either, but did suggest the memory card could be bad. It was a 16gb PQI SDHC card class 6. It in fact was a defective card and I have since received another PQI 16gb card and that issue was solved. So in conclusion the camera was returned and another was sent out. …..TO BE CONTINUED

(Purchased on 01/16/2009)
…APPARENTLY I can only post once even though I was sent three reviews.
I received a another G10 because the first was defective. When I pointed at a source of light (ie. energy saving bulb) a solid band of light emanating from the source would stretch across the LCD screen. The other issue was solved by exchanging a defective 16gb card. Now, this new camera had the same light banding issue, and this time it also had a few dead pixels on the LCD. I could not believe my luck. The dead pixels was a no brainer this camera was going back too. However, in all the reviews I had read, I had not come across one regarding the light banding issue. So, I sent this camera back. I did replace the order. I have since received yet another G10. It writes fine to the SD card, in fact I also purchased another 16gb and now have a PQI and a Transcend. I had also purchased two extra batteries for this camera, so I was committed to make this work. As a side note, each 16gb card can take up to 2450 shots on superfine mode @ 15MP, 3984 @ 9M, 6126 @ 5M, 9999 @ 2M and web size, 3267 @ WS, and 756 using RAW.
If you set RAW+JPG you only get 636, this is the setting I use mostly. So with three batteries I am supposedly good for up to 1200 shots. Can’t comment on video, because I have not really delved into it.

(Purchased on 02/02/2009)
Finally, received my third attempt at purchasing this camera. As I said before I am committed to making this work. Review after review insists that this camera is unparalleled in its class, and I am a Nikon leaning personality. Anywho, my third attempt. Camera in hand. LCD screen is perfect. No issues with either memory card. I point towards a light source, stare at the LCD. Light banding issue? YES. as it turns out it happens no matter what type of light I point to. Although it shows in the LCD it does not translate to the actual pic. So, LCD- yes, photo- no. Overall the camera seems to be a very decent choice. I bought it to take pictures you might take with a good DSLR but not have to carry one. Something to fit in the pocket. I am barely a photo enthusiast, but like to have quality and the ability to achieve more than my initial intentions. Who knows, might actually take this more seriously in the future as a hobby. Most of the shots I have taken are marco, and I have to say I am impressed. I do not regret the choice, for the most part I am satisfied with the G10, but I am curious in knowing if I could have saved a little more by going with the Nikon P6000, and achieved relatively similar results.

I rated this camera as three stars for the overall experience. The camera itself is more like Four Stars. If not for the light banding issue, I would have given it Five.

Customer Review: Great purchase
I just received this camera a couple of weeks ago, came in perfectly packaged and on time and so far I’m very please with it. This is my second CANON digital camera and they work great and also are very reliable and handy at the same time. The most important part is that through Amazaon I got it at the lowest price after shopping around different stores.

I’m glad that I spent my money in this unit and at least in my case it was worth it!!!

the canon soft case looks better than it is. It fits the camera like a glove and has a small zippered area for batteries, however once you put the batteries in, it becomes to tight a fit for the camera. Not worth the [...] bucks, maybe [...].

This camera offers so many options for the user. I’m able to use the manual settings to satisfy my more creative moments and I can set it to auto when I’m looking to get the quick, no hassel shot. Even handed it over to Mom (hates new tech) to take a few shots and she had very little problems. Still playing with the features, but it’s easy to use and menus are easy to navigate. The zoom makes for great printed pics.
