I previously owned a Canon G5 and G7. The main advantage of the G9 over the G7 is having RAW format available. The main advantages over the G5 are pixel count, higher ISO (usable only with external noise reduction IMHO) and a smaller footprint (OTOH, the G5 had some other advantages, like a movable LCD screen and remote control).
This camera looks and feels well built and it is. I was particularly impressed at my G9 surviving a fall from near shoulder height to a hard pavement. It was cold, I received a phone call, tried to remove my glove in a hurry and the wrist strap I was using came off with my glove. There is a slight scratch mark on the top-left rear corner of the chassis, and the back plate just to the right of that has a slight buckle. Nothing you would notice without really inspecting the camera, and more to the point, there has been absolutely no loss of functionality or deterioration in image quality.

After reading such mixed reviews about the G9, I was hesitant to buy it. But I went ahead and I'm glad that I did. I'm not a professional photographer, nor will I ever be and photography is more of a hobby for me. That is why it was nice to have the point and shoot/automatic features for basic photos, and to also have the option of manual features if I'm feeling artsy. I would say that it's also great for someone who is still learning about how to use manual features. You'll always have the automatic option if you want.

Takes great photos, resolution with the image stabilization is very good. I do alot of traveling with my work and DSLR is a little big, on the other hand the Casio Exlim I have is almost too small, hard to not move the camera when you push the button to take the picture. This is a great fit in between and the pictures are much closer in quality to my Rebel XT and 17-85 image stabilized lens. LOTS of controls, alot of ability to do picture manipulation in the camera, but I think I'll pass on that. 3" screen in back is great - I work in industry & I use my camera to "capture" the running conditions on the computer screen. Image stabilization helps alot here, as does the 3" screen to help review.
I also bought the "semihard" case for this, nice fit. I threw out the neck strap and bought a wrist strap.
I have a G6 that sits int he glove compartment of the car (takes great photos) - bought it used - much prefer the 3" screen to a smaller swivel screen.

camera has great possibities but can be used on automatic. my only complaint was that the included memory card was so small that it only held 9 pictures. the resolution was so good that it used lots of memory. i may never use all the complexity of the camera but who knows, it doesn't hurt to have it, just in case.

This is the best point-and-shoot that I've owned. The only problem that I have is the size. Not that it's that large, but kind of big to carry in your pocket. Great camera though.

I upgraded from a Canon PowerShot G2 to the G9 and am not disappointed. There are many selections to take the pictures in all kinds of lighting. Today I visited Fantastic Caverns in Springfield, MO, and, using the Night Snapshot, I was able to capture some amazing photos (in both low light and total darkness). The photos are crisp and clear. After using this camera for 3 weeks, I still have so much more to learn and am excited to do so!

I have had my G9 for 9 months now and love it! I have wonderful pictures of my family in all kinds of family situations. Low light is a challenge for all P&S... practice makes perfect ! This really is a fun camera. It is quick and fits in your pocket.

Theres really not much difference between the new 12.1 megapixel Canon PowerShot G9 and the 10 megapixel PowerShot G7 it replaces. They pretty much look alike. They both are optically stabilized the same way. They have the same zoom lens (35mm equivalent), hotshoe and an optical viewfinder that's about the same. The G9 has a slightly bigger 3-inch wide view LCD. But I find them pretty much the same.
I do love the fact that this camera responds quickly and it's built really tough. These days, that's a major asset.
It does seem to have quite a bit of distortion at the widest angle when you zoom it way out as far as it will go. And the lens sort of gets in front of the viewfinder. It rather interferes with it to a small degree. Also there is no optical zoom during movie capture.
This is a good camera that's similar to a true dSLR. And the fact it is ruggedly built adds to its desirability.
The fact the zoom is stabilized is important. I wouldn't consider buying a camera that didn't offer this. Also, my macro shots are terrific. Another good feature with this camera.
This is truly a camera for a real photographer. It includes a dedicated ISO dial, multi-control dial and customizable shortcut button.
Highly recommended.

I am a canon fan and had only very positive experiences so far with canon cameras and lenses. I changed my Powershot S80 (5 stars in my opinion) for the G9... which also has 5 stars specifications for my needs (mainly outdoor photography).
Unfortunately I had to return back my G9 after a week because the lenses were full of dust. Not sure yet if I was unlucky in getting a poorly build examplar of the G9 or if the tropicalisation is badly conceived, but dust entered far too easily in the lens which can be unmounted only in a specialized canon center (still haven't received it back after 3 weeks now).
Should you consider using it for outdoor activities where dust can be a issue, you may reconsider using/buying the G9. In general, most specialized reviews will correctly point out that Canon seems not to be at the level of other constructors for tropicalisation (exposure to dust & water) related matters, so be careful if this is an important issue fot you.
Hope this information will prevent you from getting into troubles.
Kind regards.

My Canon Rebel Digital was stolen, so this Canon G9 was a replacement camera for me. I am pleasantly surprized by the versatility of the camera; I also like the fact that its less of a hassle to carry around compared to the SLR. The full manual features are great for us casual users that want a little more than a point and shoot.
I also like the movie function, good enough for those unexpected moments when film will do more justice than a picture.

Recently bought the G9. I find the dials and controls to be very intuitive and well located, probably the easiest interface I have ever seen on a camera. I love the small body size. This camera will not replace your D5 but for travel photography and general use it fills a great niche. A lot of my artistic photography is done while on vacation with the family. Big cameras, backpacks and heavy weight just don't fit in anymore. The G9 seems capable of replacing most of my heavy gear and fits in a small Lowe Pro Photo Runner. The telephoto adapter and wide angle adapter are not too expensive and buff up the range for this camera. It is so cool stepping up to a 72mm polarizer in front of this small body.
Image quality is good. I am not excessively critical and seldom blow pictures up beyond a 17" Mac. My initial look at the G9 images suggests that they need a small tweak of contrast, subtle adjustment of brightness and perhaps mild unsharp masking in photoshop. After these three tweaks I am totally satisfied.

I've been using this camera for about six weeks and I am totally impressed with both the picture quality and ease of use. This is my fourth digital camera and third Canon digital camera. I've also had an S30 and S60. While I liked my previous two Canons, this camera is designed much better. It's easier to use all of the features because they are so accessible. The picture quality has been great, especially in Macro mode. For novices interested in learning digital photography, this isn't a bad camera to have because it can allow you to experiment, but you can always shift it to "Auto" when you just want to point and shoot. It is larger and a little heavier than a lot of today's point and shoot cameras, but its feature set and picture quality rival those of a dSLR - and it is much smaller and lighter than a dSLR.
If you enjoy photography, I think you will really like this camera. If you're looking strictly for a point and shoot, you'd probably be better off looing at a different camera.

I took this camera on a recent vacation (rather than my Rebel XT). This is not a point and shoot and you have to think about what you are doing. Initially, I didn't like it because the menus were confusing to me. I still haven't figured out how to use RAW. The more I used it, however, the more I liked it. The smallest aperture it has is F8. There is no way to use a cable release. You lose control of the focus point in scene modes. Having said that, it has outstanding build quality and once I got used to it I found it fun to use. It is great to use with a monopod. I was quite happy with the photos I took. You can check them out at [...]

Have had this camera now for three months and love it. It's bigger than my Canon compact Powershot digital but much smaller than SLR's. My concern was that I wouldn't carry an SLR and thus the pictures wouldn't get taken. With the G9 I have the flexibility to shoot excellent video (comparable to my Canon camcorder), low light shots and other "tough" shots that are impossible with a lesser compact but at the same time it's not so big that I don't bring it along. In all I'm very pleased with this camera. The battery life is great, I bought a big memory card for it which is nice as the file sizes are big at higher resolutions. I also love the look and feel of this camera. It's kind of retro looking, feels good in hand and overall feels like it's built with quality. It's worth adding that I'm not a professional photographer and have had no problem learning or using this camera.

I put off buying the Canon G9 because it lacked both the fast lens and the swivel LCD screen of my Canon G1. But photos on the web persuaded me to buy the camera. Now I love it. For a point-and-shoot, it turns on quickly and is soon ready for an additional shot. The Manual mode controls are easy to use. I am pleased with the photos that I have taken with it.
It works well with the Speedlite 430EX. I use the neck strap with the PSC-5000 case.
I like the feel of it; it makes me want to use it.

BACKGROUND: I've owned G7 about a year now. Delighted with G7, my first digital - prior experience all film and Nikon F2. Yes, G9 addresses many needs unmet by G7, and I've put my hands on G9 several times, but wait to see a G10.
REVIEW: The G9 offers three important usability features never mentioned in any review.
1) G9 has a far superior battery life indicator that shows battery charge status (G7 battery life indicator shows up only when battery is basically dead)
2) G9 control wheel has ridges with a superior 'bite', delivering a significant usability improvement
3) G9 greater LCD size and sharpness provides for a larger 'in-focus' window especially useful in macro mode

The purpose for purchasing this camera was to carry it in my purse for golden opportunity photos when I didn't have my SLR cameara with me. I was disappointed in this camera. It had all the features I was looking for, but it was difficult to use, heavy, and really too big for easily stowing because the lens did not retreat when turned off.
I returned this camera and purchased the PowerShot A650 IS instead, which has the essential capabilities, 12.1 megapixels, and the lens retreats when turned off, so it easily fits in my purse.

This is an AMAZING!!! camera. More money need not be spent. Next step up is much more $$$$.
Only one small problem, IF you are using the wide angle attachment, it casts a shadow while using the built-in flash.
Easily solved.
Best Bang for Buck!!!
Love the underwater mode when diving using the Canon Housing!

Canon has a real winner here with this new G9! You have great coverage with the optical zoom (6x) and the fact that it does RAW is a real plus for me. I shoot professionally and I love the RAW format. Some other point and shoots also shoot RAW but are so slow in writing the file it is almost unusable. This little gem is only slightly slower than straight jpeg. You will not miss a shot in this mode. The additional feature of an external flash, even though the flash is bigger than the camera, is a super plus. I shot a small concert using this camera and a 420ex Canon flash and was shooting well exposed shots of the stage from 120 feet. The built in flash is very good up to about 20 feet but beyond that is a waste of time. The face recognition also works on animals! That was a surprise to me but I'll take it!
It is not as versital as my DSLR but it makes a great backup camera.
When you need a great small camera, this is the one to take along.
You will need to use the program that comes with it to translate from RAw as this RAW format is very new.

I have had several digital cameras, and most are Canon. This is now my favorite. The viewing screen is a very good size, and since I already have the S80, there was not much to learn with the G9. My only problem was the case that I purchased. It is way too tight for this camera.

This is my first "real" digital camera but I was quite involved in photography in the film era.What is nice about this camera is the build quality.The camera just feels good to hold,if you own a basic compact camera you will see and feel the difference the moment you pick it up.
The down side is the inaccurate viewfinder.I like to use the viewfinder in direct sunlight and to steady the camera without a tripod but like all compacts the viewfinder shows only 80% of the actual field. You will also get better results by choosing white balance settings rather than leaving it on auto white balance.
I think $500 is a lot for a compact but this camera has the manual controls and solid build quality that the others don't have.The program and iso dials on top make those functions easy to use and the display screen is big and bright.There is a separate on /off switch for the display so you don't have to boot the whole camera to review your pictures.
I'm not disappointed with this purchase because I wanted a quality camera with manual controls and still be able to carry it in a jacket pocket or slip it into my laptop case.
