Canon G10 good enough for a first digital?

Yes, but there's a fat chance you'll want a bigger, better camera quite soon; maybe you should just get a cheap DSLR from the very beginning.

Too broke to afford it unfortunately.
Too broke to fix my old Pentax up as well and too sick of my fucking awful camera phone.

Um, in our store the G10 retails at a higher price than the start DSLRs (Canon 1000D for instance).

That said it's a lovely compact. At such a high price though it's really worth saving for a DSLR.

there are a lot of $500 dslrs that will be much better than the g10

So you're ready to shell out $500 for the G10, but can't afford a Rebel XS or Nikon D40 or, I dunno, Olympus E-520 for fifty bucks more?

Ritz Camera has the Pentax *ist DS, a great beginner DSLR that's compatible with your old Pentax lenses, for less than $250. Just ask someone at your local store to order one for you.

What's with this faggot always coming in these threads and suggesting some discontinued, completely obsolete Pentax?

Stop trolling.

There's at least two people who suggest it. I know, because I'm one of them. If someone doesn't prefer the interface of another brand, the *ist D has features you have to go up to above-entry-level to get elsewhere, and a larger viewfinder than almost every other crop DSLR.

The DS takes a few features away, but has some other advantages.

What does a shitty D60 have on these? Not a focus motor, for sure. Pixels? Yeah, it's got those.

Yes, I was serious. And really, even if it is one person and he's not lying in>>292679, does it matter? The only posts to ever come out of Meese are trolling, so whether you view it as one troll or a gestalt of several trolls, the end result (i.e., it's a troll and should be ignored) is the same.

Because it's absolutely retarded to suggest something that's long discontinued and completely obsolete?

If you're not going to enlarge larger then 30x40cm? Nope, almost nothing has changed indeed.

Yeah, nothing has changed.

I'm going to buy a Canon D30 and shoot at ISO1600 and get awesome clean images.

Thanks guys, you've just saved me $500 and a headache because I can just go on eBay and find myself a used one.

Doesn't matter if it's a 30D or 50D, crop cameras still can't do clean high ISO shots because of LOL MEGAPIXULS.

No, it doesn't. D30 has lower pixel density than any full-frame camera since Contax N Digital. It really does deliver clean images at ISO 1600 - the only problem is the resolution.

You tripfags! Read damn it
>> Canon G10 good enough for a first digital?
The short answer is yes, it is "enough" but not very wise.
For the same price you can get a nice DSLR.
D40, D40x, 60D, K200d, 350D, 400D, 1000D
If you spend some time on gayeBay you could get even a 30D.

Although I should point out that what you've got there is the example image from the Nikon D1, not the EOS D30. The D30's example image is pretty noisy too, though.
