Great Instruments

As a musician, I understand the value of a great instument. The better the instrument, the better the result, especially with study and practice. As someone who is realitively new to photography, I recently upgraded from a Kodak ZD10 to the Canon G12. Wow, what a camera! I received many compliments on my photographs taken with the Kodak, but as my interest in photography has grown, I sought the advise of a couple photographers I know and they both recommeded the G12. After purchasing the camera at the beginning of this year, I immediately saw the difference in the results. Even in automatic mode, the crispness and clarity of the photos I've taken with the G12 are so much better than other cameras I've tried. I've found that now I see scenes and objects so much differently since I've had the Canon. I've been using program mode primarily and I am now experimenting with manual settings. The G12 has contributed to my passion for photography which has begun to match my interest and love for music. I definitely recommend the G12 to anyone trying to decide between it and one of it's competitors.
