Re: Thought canon dropped.....

I defo wont pay $500 for it when I paid only $750 for my SLR and you could get the Nikon SLRs for $600

Re: Thought canon dropped.....

it is a good camera but when you can pay 300 more and get a rebel xti ... kinda a no brainer. if the G7 was priced around 350 or less. would be a steal of a deal. but it has the digic III. once a SLR comes out with that ... it is mine. ... waits.

Re: Thought canon dropped.....

the difference is the G7 is one unit and ready to go. no need to buy too many accessories as you do with a slr.

Re: Thought canon dropped.....

but so is the xti. flash, lens, body, memory.

G7 is a dead end camera. no upgrades.

exactly what I meant from my previous post. what you buy is what you get. with the slr, you need to get different lenses, flash, etc etc. ;)

Re: Thought canon dropped.....

I wish I had taken the Powershot 620 or 630....my 540 is nive, but those puppies are the best you can do when you don't want to take the trouble of buying a DSLR imo...

Re: Thought canon dropped.....

Yeah, I got my Digital Rebel from ebay for $500 with the basic lens pack. Theres no reason to downgrade for slightly less.

By the way: I love my camera!
