Great camera but has a weak spot
1

I loved my G9, Great photos, jpeg and raw, sturdy and versatile, the little gem was my go to camera for travel to Europe and Canada...until she let me down when them it stopped working in Southern France. I took it to Canon Service in Irvine, CA when I returned home and shelled out $150 to repair it, and used it for another year until the G12 was available.

The lens on this thing is great. Nice pictures at ISO 80/100.
