Let there be light. And a lot of it.

Cool.I did a quick search at flickr.com "canon g10 bounce flash"Thanks TPF community! I played around with my G10 in shutter priority mode with a ton of indoor light and there was vast improvement in moving target photos. I think a flash will be a game changer and should allow me to use my current camera at least for the time being.
@Dao: that flash looks great. Thanks!
And found this
Mr Ben
That should give you an idea what you can do with your G10 and a bounce flash.
And this
Harry!
Based on the catch light on the hamster, I assume the flash is also bounce off the ceiling. So with added diffused light, you should be able to increase the shutter speed. On top of that, the flash exposure alone should also be able to freeze the motion.
Quick question: is there a lens that I could get for my G10 that would be valuable? I know you can add on some lenses but not sure the limit.
I really appreciate your candor, cherylynne. Your comments about the industry being at a crossroads and that I'm trying to plan equipment needs 10 years in advance are very logical. What probably makes the most sense for me now is to get a decent flash and get some experience under my belt outside of automatic mode on my G10. Then, in 5 years or so, I'll be in a better position to make a more informed decision about what camera to get.This is a tricky question, for a couple reasons.
No, thats expected with your camera. It has a really small sensor - 1/1.7", or 7.6 x 5.7 mm, and its old CCD technology.One thing I noticed, though, is some graininess in the images. Is this due to still not enough light?
