Canon PowerShot G10 14.7
Overall this is a really nice camera for a point and shoot.You can carry a 5D with a battery grip, but that gets heavy. . This the solid build and features. This camera is as close to a DSLR that you are going to find in a point and shoot.
The image quality at ISO80 impress. The colors are strong, the image is sharp, and contrast is excellent. When we shoot RAW only so you can really make the colors pop in Digital Photo Professional. WE could save as a TIFF and play with them futher in Camera RAW ad achieve excellent results.
The problem with this camera comes in when you start to increase the ISO, and it falls off quickly. Anything above ISO400 is pretty much unusable unless you are looking for creative grainy B&W’s.
You should know what you are going to get for $499. For most families this camera will be fine. You can pretty much stay at ISO80 for just about all situations if you combine it with a decent speedlight (such as the 430EX or even the 580EX). Under these guidelines you will absolutely love the G10.

Hi - very good website you have established. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to publish a comment to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically sweet. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed playing with computers and am attempting to learn computer code in my free time (which there is never enough of lol).
This topic was very informative and well written. I plan to do some more research on this. Thanks for sharing this timely information. We need more like this.
Typically I do not make comments on blogs, but I have to mention that this post really forced me to do so. Really terrific post
