Great in-between camera
(L Holmes - 10/16/08)I wasn't quite ready to pay the $$$ for an SLR, but I was frustrated with my basic point-and-shoot camera. So I upgraded to the G10, and it meets my needs well. While it works fine out of the box, it really shines when you use the Manual settings. I'm finally able to get the sharp, balanced, saturated photos I'd been trying and failing to get before. I find it's a little noisy at 400+, but far better than what the old 400 film used to be. I tweak my indoor shots with noise-reduction software for a flawless finish. The wide-angle-to-telephoto lens is a big plus as well. All in all, I'm very pleased and think this is probably as good as it gets this side of an SLR.
