Solid performer and probably all you ever need in one package if you can't decide between a DSLR and a prosumer.

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Solid feel, colors are rich, convenient to adjust controls, wide angle is bonus
Cons: pricey.
Opinion:
Been using the G10 for a month and I've enjoyed every minute of it. Firstly it's lighter than the G9 (and smidgen cheaper) but slightly bulkier. But I like my cameras to feel like a weapon in my hand so I appreciate the solidness of it.
I'm still learning the controls but they are easy to find and adjust. For someone used to shooting on Auto, it's been a breeze and I haven't had to switch to Auto since I started.
Sometimes though, when your memory card is nearly full, it kinda lags a little but on the whole it's been great.
Was deciding between this and the 1000D but figured I wouldn't bother with the lenses etc and well, I'm glad I plumped for it.
