My 3rd Powershot G

This is my 3rd Canon Powershot from the G series I like the solid metal body. Automatic lens cap/shutter that protects the lens when the camera is off. The photo quality is very good. The video quality is acceptable. There's a viewfinder, which is nice. The larger body makes it easier to hold and stabilize. Some things that are almost negative: This G16 model does not have a foldable screen. The wide angle of this lens is 28mm, sometimes I need 24mm. I have a transition lens. It's a little big and heavy, but that's to be expected given the solid metal body. I've got all the big, heavy pro gear and glass, but this is my EDC camera, everyday carry. When I go out to eat, you'll find this in my jacket pocket. I have a 1.25 inch wide Canon strap for easy carrying. I would recommend this camera to almost any photographer.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • boring packaging
