Had a Canon G6 years ago, gave it up for a Digital Rebel. After a myriad of other cameras i got a used G6 with bent CF pins for $10 and straightened the pins. Figured I would sell it and now finding myself selling one of my other cameras instead. This is a wonderful little camera, high resolution, don't expect anything higher than ISO 100 to be great, then again don't expect any compact to be great over 100. Its usable all the way up to 400 but i tend to not shoot over ISO 50 anyways.

Easy, outstanding photos every time

I got this camera in early 05 and have been thrilled with it. It has been banged around, dropped, spilled on, etc and never had a problem. I would highly recommend it to anyone!

Outstanding Digital Camera
rating: 5
I purchased this camera in July 2005. I have taken thousands of pictures with this camera. It's easy to operate. The camera has a lot of functionality to it. It's great for those of us who don't want to move up to a DSLR.
In the two-plus years I've owned the camera, I've not had one problem with it. It just survived a trip to the races at the dirt track in Wheatland, MO.

Perfect for amature enthusiasts who want a little more control over their Photo
rating: 4
The Canon Powershot G6 is a nice amera, Physically the camera looks a bit different than the G5, the G6 is narrower and stubbier. The extra Girth supported by the G6 makes it easier to handle than its predecessors. especially those with large hands like me.
What i like about this camera is the 9 point auto focus point, which it got from the higher end SLR professional cameras. Normally, to focus on a subject one has to aim using the center of the camera, where the focusing point is. but what if you want to put some artistic flare into your photo, and what if you have to subjects that are not aligned? by having the 9 auto focus point spread throughout the viewing area, when you press the shutter half way, the camera instantly focuses on all the subjects. it instantly puts squares over what you have in the frame indicating That it has locked on. it will then adjust the settings and the light to give you the best possible shot. The downside of this camera is that it is expensive.
Whether your an amateur enthusiast or a serious Photographer on the verge of going pro the Canon G6 is for you.

The best camera ever owned!
rating: 5
This is my third digital camera I have owned, and it is by far the best. It takes wonderful pictures (excellent I must say!) and the rechargeable batteries do last a long time without having to recharge them all the time. I can take about a hundred pictures before I think about recharging them. Yes, I do take pics with the LCD on. I do not find that it is slow turning on and getting ready for the first shot. Mine is really fast. Also, buy a compactflash card that has a 20 MB/sec sequential read/write speed (SanDisk SDCFX3-2048-901 2 GB Extreme III CompactFlash Card). With this type of card you will be able to take your next shot immediately.
