90% – The G11 is DSLR-expensive, but you can’t fault the pictures it takes.

The G11 is an intimidating camera. Hand it to someone inexperienced and it’s likely they’ll hand it straight back. The top is scattered with dials controlling everything from the shooting mode, exposure compensation and even – unusually – ISO.
This is a double-edged sword. On the one hand it makes the G11 – already the biggest, heaviest camera here – about as user-friendly as a Boeing 747, at least for beginners. On the other hand, for photographers who understand the basics, it makes setting up a shot and compensating for different subjects and lighting conditions an absolute snap.

The folks out at Canon have done it again, folks, but this time there’s a caveat–I don’t recommend this for anything but the advanced photographer because it’s really kind of a handful. Today I’m talking about the Canon G11.
The Canon G11 is a ten megapixel camera that offers a 5x optical zoom (with a 20x digital zoom), a 2.8 inch LCD display, DIGIC 4 image processor, image stabilization, face detection, a variety of scene modes and a panorama mode, a nine-point autofocus, white balance modes and auto flash, a variety of special effects, a wide variety of supported storage media (including Secure Digital and MultiMediaCard), USB interface with AV outlets, the capability to print directly from the camera without aid of a PC and editing software.
