Canon announced the 12.1MP PowerShot G9 in August. The Canon G9 is currently the 12th best selling camera on Amazon.com.

LetsGoDigital published a detailed review of this interesting Canon camera.

Quote from the review: "Despite the fact that I think the image quality could have been better, the Canon G9 has convinced me. It is simply one of the best compact cameras at this moment, but you have to know very well what you are doing and you have to get used to the camera. The camera is not friends with everybody and an inexperienced photographer will not be able to apply the camera to the fullest. But personally I find it a great camera. A tool to always have on me wherever I go. The Canon G9 camera gives you the old-fashioned feeling of photographing requiring craftsmanship, both during and after capturing the moment. "
