Seems to be a good investment at this point.
Trying to locate a USB cord that will fit the camera because it did not come with one. The USB is required if you want to download the solutions PDF off of the CD which is included. Also the CD contains the owner's manual which I cannot download without cord.
Pros:
- Does close up shots and maintains color of items shot
Cons:
- Package does not include USB code needed to download the PDF file off the CD

Canon PowerShot G15
While this is a Digital Camera it makes an excellent bridge unit for those intending to make the jump to a DSLR unit as it has that rarely seen item a viewfinder as well as a decent TFT screen so all groups are catered for.

Canon PowerShot G15 vs Nikon Coolpix P7700
The Canon Powershot G15 is a well-refined product and a joy to use. It is very quick and responsive in operation, built like a tank and offers the most external controls in its class. In combination with the fast 28-140mm F1.8-2.8 lens that makes it a very versatile and pocketable photographic tool that offers almost the same degree of control as much larger DSLRs. The Coolpix P7700 offers an impressive feature set, a longer zoom range than most of its competitors, a fully articulating LCD, and very good photo quality. Unfortunately, it is marred by very slow write times, especially in RAW mode which makes continuous shooting a chore, and really forces you to use the fastest memory cards available for best performance.
Pros:
- Photographers who want DSLR-like controls and build-quality in a pocketable package
- Enthusiasts seeking a compact with great image quality at low sensitivities, a plethora of manual controls, an articulating display, and more zoom power than the competition.
Cons:
- Video shooters or users who cannot live without an articulated screen
- Photographers who will shooting RAW files continuously and don't want to wait to take the next photo. And, of course, optical viewfinder lovers.

Canon was right to keep the PowerShot G1 X in play when it shipped the G15, as despite their common heritage they're fairly dissimilar cameras.
Pros:
- Redesigned top plate
- Colour reproduction
- Professional features
- Movie performance
Cons:
- Expensive in its field
- Some wind noise on movies
- Fixed screen

- Good quality
- Semi pro features
- Good focusing

Canon PowerShot G15 Review
Although the PowerShot G15 is a good camera, reluctantly we're getting off the small-chip G-series merry-go-round – especially at its list price of $499.
Pros:
- Bright f/1.8-f/2.8 5x zoom
- Quality stills and videos
- Excellent image stabilization system
Cons:
- Better alternatives available
- Pokes along in RAW
- Very noisy at high ISOs

Canon PowerShot G15
The Canon PowerShot G15 the newest addition to the G series of Canon, is an advanced point and shoot camera that is just full of surprises. It improves on many things when compared to the G12, at least on paper and we wonder if that actually translates into any real world performance.
Pros:
- Fast f/1.8-2.8 lens
- Fast and accurate AF system reminiscent of Canon DSLRs
- 1 cm minimum focussing distance for macro shots
Cons:
- Bulky design
- Small 1/1.7-inch sensor
- No bendable flash
