I have the Canon G5, much like the G3, except for the 5 Megapixel CCD.
The good:
1. Beautiful color clarity
2. Lots of Auto and manual modes
3. Takes an adapter to mount other lenses
4. Good battery life when not using the lcd
5. Goof flash
6. Manual white balance
7. Takes pictures in RAW mode in manual mode, which is uncompressed and unprocessed and lossless
8. Great 8x10 enlargements
9. Takes Compact Flash media, which are cheap, large and re-usable in my PDA, laptop reader and mp3 player
10. Standard flash shoe
11. Good menu system
The bad:
1. Only 4x optical zoon, with an additional 4x digital
2. Flash is a little weak
I got it on one of the days Dell Small Business was having a 15% off sale and I had a coupon code for another $30 off. These sales are frequent. Wound up being only $629 with tax, free delivery. It compares very well with the others and it costs a lot less when on sale.
I'll post some pictures if you'd like..
