Canon G9 Reviewed

The Canon G9 made a big splash as the first camera other than a DSLR that could shoot images in RAW mode. The G9 also features a 12MP sensor and a 6x optical zoom lens with image stabilization and SR coating.

The G9 also has a hot show for external flash and a manual mode. The camera can also shoot movie clips. DPReview reviewed the G9 recently and said the pros included excellent resolution, Raw mode, ISO dial on body and excellent movie quality among other things.

Cons were missing some features of other G series cams like variable angle LCD, Raw mode required for best images, and shadow noise visible at ISO 80. In the end the G9 get the highly Recommended rating, but barely.
