Canon Powershot G12 in 2021
The small chip size with a lower pixel rating (10 MP) would seem to be a real image killer. However, this does not seem to be the case. The images look good and can stand cropping and enlarging pretty well. It will not perform to the level of the newer chips but it does take images as good or better than todays latest smartphones.
The camera is easy to use and has a lot of features that enhance the picture taking experience. I even shot a few test videos of 8mm film projection with good success. Overall this old but functional camera has been a surprise performer.
Attached are some sample shots with the G12. The one of me crouching down was taken by a 4 year old!
I haven't had an opportunity to try out any of the newer Canon Powershots from this top of the line area. I suspect that the images of these new generation cameras are even better, but for a little over a 100 dollars it is hard to beat the bang for the buck. When you need a camera with full DSLR type controls this camera is hard to beat for the money.
