Canon PowerShot G10 digital camera test : The Canon PowerShot G10 was introduced worldwide around the time of the Photokina 2008. The G10 is the latest model of Canon's successful G-series cameras. The Canon PowerShot G camera is always prone to attract the attention of photographers, the amateur as well as the professional photographer. The Canon PowerShot G10 is the immediate successor to the G9 and it comes as no surprise that both cameras look a lot alike. In spite of what you may have expected, the PowerShot G10 has not decreased in size, in fact, it even got somewhat bigger.• Read our full Canon PowerShot G10 review.

Canon PowerShot G10 review - Camera design
If you're looking for an ultra-compact and light camera, you should not go for the Canon PowerShot G10 since the Canon G10 is a sturdy compact camera that weighs quite a bit. And when it comes to design, personally I don't find it the most attractive camera in the world. However, these are all features that don't have anything to do with a more important factor; the quality. The housing of the G10 feels very solid. The material used for the housing is mainly metal with the exception of two covers (Interfaces and battery compartment). Its weight has increased by 40 grams compared to that of its predecessor.
Canon PowerShot G10 test - Advanced compact camera
It makes more sense to use the various features of a digital camera such as the Canon G10 while taking pictures rather than leaving it to shoot in auto mode. The latter is very well possible, but you don't purchase a G10 to only do that. When it comes to operation, the G10 is more similar to a DSLR than an average compact camera. Emphasis is on the many setting options which make this camera ideal for the DSLR photographer to use as second camera.
Canon G10 review including a DIWA Labs test
We had the Canon PowerShot G10 in the office for awhile and tested it extensively in practice as well as in the lab. LetsGoDigital is a co-founder and member of DIWA Awards, which means that we have a fully equipped test lab at our disposal. The Canon G10 went through rigorous testing procedures in the DIWA Lab in combination with our experience in practice; ultimately turning into a full camera review.
