I own a slew of DSLR's and lenses, but I know absolutely nothing about the less expensive equipment Canon produces. One of my good friends is looking for camera advice, but does not want to venture into the world of the DSLR. He has the basic $100 point-and-shoot, but is dissappointed in the results.


Does anyone own the Canon G9 or G10...and does it work well? From specifications, they look like perfectly nice cameras and the refurbished G9 at Adorma fits his $350.00 budget.


I notice they can shoot in RAW and even accept external flashes...Any experience with these?
