A bit bulky and seemed slow

(Ashley Caviness - 1/5/07)

I purchased this camera just before Chrismas to take some pics of our little girl opening presents etc.. and as I had lost my IXY 800IS (same as powershot 700IS). It seemed great at first as I loved the style and weight of the camera. It also seemed to take great pictures. I noticed though that even with the picture review off it seemed a bit slower than my Ixy and the size of the camera prohibited me from carrying it everywhere as I would usually wear my Ixy on my belt. I actually found my IXY under my nightstand of all places and returned the G7 to my local Brandsmart where I had purchased it. They were easy going about the return but beware only 5 days on returns for some items. Overall the size was just too big and it seemed slow. Keep in mind with 19 month old children these things have to be fast! Also, the IS or image stabilization is a must have!
