October 2008My Review
I was told how great the Canon cameras were from my husband, who had used nothing but Canon for his photography, which covered many years. He bought me the G10 as we do a lot of traveling. Twice the camera failed on me. The first time I could not figure out what was wrong and blamed it on the battery. The second time I could not get it to work, so I sent it to have it repaired. It ended up the company had to send it to Canon factory, costing me well over $200. for the money my husband paid for this and to have failed me twice, I know I will never purchase a Canon once this goes out. Also, of note, my husband bought a G12, which he finally gave to our son because he was so disappointed in the quality of the camera. I bought him an Olympus Penn which he loves. I really did like the easy operating of the Canon and the beautiful pictures it does take, but now I have the fear of it failing me once again on one of my travels. It was the shutter mechanism that had to be replaced.
