Canon PowerShot G5 Details
Editors' Comments
The Canon PowerShot G5 receives consistent complaints about its images from professional reviewers and owners alike. While the G5 offers higher resolution and a longer zoom than the G3, many reviewers claim that persistent image noise and purple fringing makes the G3 a better alternative. Despite these complaints, however, the camera's overall performance gets good reviews.
