I needed a camera, moving images (eg theater and dance photos) with manual adjustment sharp and can shoot with good quality, because I need every now and then these photos for the newspaper. Here I have done with the Canon PowerShot G16 and a friend. The camera is still pretty easy to handle, has a not too gigantic lens, but one that makes really good pictures. That's why - for my purposes - for this camera 5 stars! And for this performance, the price is really super.
