Hmmm. A hard one. Well

Nothing. For a small sensor compact this is as good as it gets.
The highly-regarded Canon G11 is designed for keen photographers who want a pocket-sized camera to complement their SLRs. See how it performed in our group test ...
Optical viewfinder , Articulated LCD , Very good photo quality for its class
Shot-to-shot performance still a little sluggish , No HD video
Though it doesn't offer the whizziest new features like an interchangeable lens or a tiny size, the Canon PowerShot G11 still delivers a good shooting experience for photography enthusiasts. Plus it's the only model that includes an optical viewfi...
Abstract: Canon surprised many industry observers by replacing the 14-megapixel PowerShot G10 with the 10-megapixel G11 model. However, this move makes sense because image noise was an issue with the G10 at ISO 400 and most photographers should appreciate having...

The big story here is that Canon has heeded the G10's critics. Reviewers loved that camera's retro design and logical ergonomics but they hated the 14-megapixel sensor. Panasonic's LX3 won the competition for best serious compact with 10 megap...

Full manual control, pivoting screen, good high ISO performance for a compact camera
Buttons feel spongy, no fine control over zoom, noticeable barrel roll at the wide angle, slightly soft images, no bulb mode
The Canon PowerShot G11 is a good camera, but it’s not without its flaws. We wish it had sturdier buttons and that its zoom control was better. Photos are a little soft, but this camera is still capable of capturing some excellent pictures. It&rsquo...
Abstract: The bridge market between point-and-shoot compacts and entry-level DSLR’s has become more and more competitive over the last couple years. With many companies concentrating a stronger effort on the Micro Four Thirds technology and offering great val...
The G11 scores high in accessibility to body (non-menu) controls for many essential field operations; a bright and readable display that really comes to the fore in low light; excellent image quality at reasonable ISO settings; live view-like settings ...
Very nice design, Very good low light performance, Very good image quality, Great flipout LCD screen,
Lost some nice features from the G10, Rear buttons too easy to accidentally push
The G11 will appeal to point-and-shoot users who are ready for more power, control, and quality, but don’t want to carry around a camera with the bulk of an SLR. ...
