Canon has unveiled their latest top of the line point and shoot camera. The G11 replaces the flagship, multi-award winning G10, a favorite amongst professional photographers and bloggers alike. The G10’s 14.7MP sensor has been replaced with a 10.0MP CCD sensor, and although this may sound like a downgrade, the camera boasts a greatly expanded dynamic range that increases image quality and improves noise performance by up to 2 stops (compared to PowerShot G10). Less is more. The PowerShot G11 is also equipped to deal with any light condition, whether dim or bright. A 2.8-inch flip-out LCD screen is also added, making it the ideal choice for any shot where an SLR is impractical or obtrusive. Scheduled for an October release at $499 USD. Added to the wishlist.

These days its hard to imagine living without a digital camera. Everybody always seems to have one around and that is most of the time a good thing.
We have always been fans of quality digital cameras with a bit of a retro look, lots of options, but when needed the camera can do it all by itself. In that category are most notably the Panasonic Lumix range, Ricoh, Canon G-Series and a couple of others. We want it compact, but full of options and all these cameras offer that.
Now Panasonic just released their new DMC-LX3K. From the look we definitely like it, especially the added grip that the LX2 did not have. The Leica technology also does not disappoint and the camera comes with the a 24mm wide-angle – perfect. Off of the sheet it all sounds good. We have not tested it, but it is worth checking out, if you are looking for a new digital camera.
