The Canon G9 a is real marvel for the professional who doesn't want to drag heavy gear everywhere. Large live view and nearly every setting a full size DSR. Not that great with low lighting due to small optics... grainy even at ISO80. #1017927Michelle Alton October 17, 2008
I agree with your analysis of the G9...I carry it everywhere but the low light noise is frustrating! This, however, is a wonderful shot! Cindy is beautiful, even behind the camera! #6612578Jim Huffield October 17, 2008

Hi Steve! I hope that I make Tony Sweet proud! One of my favs -- thanks so much for including this shot in your gallery! :-) #6619950Patrick Rouzes October 19, 2008
Outstanding clarity, detail, tones, pov, comp & background here, Steven!!!Steven, I do like my G9 very much but -like you- I find it does not do well in low light. Overall, though, I would give it an 8/10.
Have a nice day, Steven!!! #6621575

This is a great portrait of your neighbor friend as a photographer. Very dynamic angle. I can see how serious and passionate she is. Like I said before, your fill flash is perfect. Hope she is recovering well. Please tell her I'm praying for her. #6709731Dawn M. Schneider January 21, 2009
I bet cindy loved this what a great pov she looks great even behind the camera! #7061368Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
