Canon Powershot G9 VS. Powershot G10 camera?
I am a new beginner photographer, I really like both of these cameras, but I cant really tell / decide what one is better.
I am interested in all types of photography, photographing people, landscapes, everything…
If you own one of these or have used these cameras, what one do you think provides best performance?
when answering this question, also feel free to suggest other good semi - professional digital cameras.
But remember, I would still like for the main question to still be answered 1st =]
If I were looking for a point and shoot I would have to say the G10 would be in consideration. I think you will be better though long term with a DSLR and it about the same price as a G10
I would say the Nikon D40 Its an entry level DSLR. A digital SLR will give you a much larger sensor than any point and shoot camera. Larger sensor = more light to each pixel = clearer, crisper photo with better color saturation. DSLR will also let you grow and take more control as you learn more and you can change lenses when you have a need to. The sensor on the olympus is smaller than on Nikon or Canon
I am a nikon person and have had nikons since the 70's I personally think the nikon D40 give you more for the dollar than any DSLR today. There are some that do more but you pay a good bit more. Do not let the lower megapixels concern you if you do not do very very large prints you will never notice the lower DSLR. My brother recently needs a DSLR for a class and I recommended the D40 to him So I would also say get the D40 not the D40X. The Nikon D40 does not have limited functions compared with other entry DSLR. Yes it has fewer funtioncas than a 1500 dollar camera body would. It is not a a cut down version its equal or above most any entry level DSLR.
There is a great article in this months Digital Photopro Magazine that is titled "Megapixels how much is enough" EVERYONE looking at buying a new digital camera can profit by reading this article. Its here

I have a d300 and a d40 and when I am shooting for fun I grab the d40. Its weightless, a joy to use and gives good results
