 Outstanding point n' shoot. May 15, 2008
Short and simple.
I got this camera as a gift, from my uncle who is a pro. Best camera out there! For point and shoot, for family, and other purposes this camera is all you will ever need! Unless you are a pro? This is it!
 Lousy customer support - dust in lenses May 10, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Beware of Canon customer support. I bought a G7 a year ago and after six month something that look like dust particle managed to get into the lens (all pictures and videos have a black dot). First I thought that I could clean than but then I realized the lenses are sealed. Then I wondered, if the lenses are sealed the only way a particle of dust could have gotten there was when it was manufactured. Well, I call Canon and guess what; they offered me to send the camera for repair (at my expense) or a refurbished one for $250 dollars. If I knew how I would sue this company for utter irresponsibility. Now all my pictures and videos have a black dot thanks to Canon's lack of support. So long for a honey moon with Canon...

Cannon G7 April 28, 2008
Best camera I have ever owned. It has so many features that it takes a lot of time to learn them, however, it also works great as a "point and shoot". Well worth the money. Best features are multiple face recognition and image stabilization.
Totally Pleasing Point & Shoot! March 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Canon G7 is one of the best Point and Shoot cameras I have ever used, and besides looking great (very retro), it's images are outstanding! I bought mine from some local electronics store because I am impatient and needed it right away for a business photography need, but could have saved some money by buying it from Amazon or elsewhere online.
It's settings are astounding and I am just getting to the point of where I can use more versatility than just the standard program or auto functions. I especially love shutter priority where it's 3 very sensitive CCDs "push" the images colors over the top! When indoors and shooting stills, it's so good on these images that I don't need a flash many times (although it may require a few pratice shots to keep the body still when exposing for extended frames). If you're new to the idea of video available on a point and shoot, this camera will also impress the user by being easy to use and easy to review your newly captured video footage. It has 2 options: very-good and high-quality for the video footage (not the real setting names).
It's a durable camera as well, but (being too embarassed) I won't describe how I found that out! :O I will tell you that I am completely impressed and delighted that I spent the money I spent, after having tried SOOO many cameras that fall short in one area or another.
If you're looking for a great camera, the G7 or the G9 will not disappoint. Unless you're exploding images up to poster size routinely, this camera could be your best daily photography tool. This camera seems to do it all for me @ my level (I am a former SLR owner, who doesn't like taking the full kit with me just for snapshots). My only regret was not waiting on the G9 because the screen size appears to be a little bigger, and it has a better set of sensors (it's 12MP). Overall, I am very happy with it even if I never get to upgrade to the G9.

Purchased this camera in Jan 2007, and last week received the infamous and well documented message, "lens error, restart camera".
