G3 final review at dcresource.com

What camera(s) was he referring to when he said it did not have the best resolution? The G2, Sony 717?

Well, redeye doesnt bother me. I can live with that.. but CA is bad thing. I did get familiar to it with Oly C-4040 and its really pain in the ass. Sharpening can be adjusted from camera itself to more aggressive if that is what they ment.

those 3 things are really annoying

Redeye worse than expected (even with repeated tests)
Strange chromatic aberrations (rare, but annoying)
Images not as sharp as the very best 4/5 Megapixel cameras

"Press the Func. button, and you'll be able to save the image in RAW format instead of JPEG. I have no idea when you'd ever need this feature."

..Its odd that he didnt find that feature useful. :-)
 
same problem here, but I guess G3 is still beats both of them...
You must bo joking. I think you mean in term of price and size. Come to resolution and clarity, G3 does not come close to F717.
Looking for alternative.. 717 is too huge for me. 5700 AF is slow.
Anything else?

Reticent ? What are you talking about, didn't we read the same lines ?

"The Canon PowerShot G3 is one of the finest digital cameras on the market. It offers robust performance, tons of manual controls, unmatched system expandability, and excellent photo quality. The DIGIC processor has made the G3 one of the most responsive cameras I've used."

That sounds pretty damn nice to me...

First - Steve's Digicams gives a completely non commital review of
the G3.
Now - DC Resource has basically done the same thing.

While I have seen some very decent landscapes and portraits taken
with the G3 by participants on this forum - I really have to ask
  • why are the pro reviewers so reticent about the G3?

images are not sharp as most cams, red eye and bad CA problems....

Well maybe you believe my G3 findings a little more now...........

The G3 IS inferior to the S45! I have tested them both!

LOL! LOL!
I am somewhat dissappointed now:

those 3 things are really annoying

Redeye worse than expected (even with repeated tests)
Strange chromatic aberrations (rare, but annoying)
Images not as sharp as the very best 4/5 Megapixel cameras
 
"nice" choice of words you choose and a lot of people still disagree with you... s45 has it's own set of problems that are more annoying.... and be careful don't choke...
