Overall, the Canon PowerShot G1 is a marked improvement over the S20 and the S10. Its newly improved form factor, especially in the rotating LCD monitor panel, chrome posterior with black anterior chassis plus the optical 7-21mm zoom lens, gives it a cool thumbs-up in terms of product design. It is also bundled with several complementing photo-editing and video-editing software, ranging from Adobe's Photoshop LE 5.0 to the brilliant ZoomBrowserX (which lets you import and export images and video clips in a convenient and stylish interface). There's also the TimeTunnel application, which lets you preview your images in a time tunnel interface (more eye-candy than anything else) and of course, the PhotoStitch app, that is smart enough to piece multiple images together to form a panoramic shot for you.
The G1 transfers images to your PC via a USB connection, so speed is not a major concern here. There's also a RemoteCapture app in the CD that allows you to control the camera remotely via your computer (turning it into an expensive video PC cam no doubt).
