Canons G series has converted many a serious film shutterbug to digital photography. Launched in 2000 with the PowerShot G1, the sturdy G line helped establish digital photography as something more than a novelty. But judging from the latest entry, the Ca...

The Canon Powershot G9 sits at the high-end of Canon's compact digital camera line up. As such, it is one of the most full-featured compact cameras, including a hot-shoe, bracketing, manual focus and fully manual exposure. Overall, the performance of the...

Cons: Relatively significant distortion at the widest angle of view; when zoomed out completely, lens intrudes into viewfinder; no optical zoom during movie capture.

Cons: Three-tiered multi controller could be better, Quite expensive

The Canon PowerShot G9 is a very powerful compact which will greatly appeal to enthusiasts or anyone looking for a pocketable backup for a DSLR. It features a wide array of manual controls which unlike many compacts are sensibly implemented and on the who...

Review Verdict: Ultimately the PowerShot G9 may not be without its faults, but there's simply few if any alternatives which offer this degree of control and flexibility in a pocketable form factor. There are certainly smaller compacts out there, but none have the G9's co
