Should we compare RAWs? IMHO we should compare both JPG _and_ RAW. RAW to get apples to apples for geeks, and JPG to JPG to get "out of camera" vs. "out of camera" 99% of buyers will usually stay with.
Many of Canon G-series and Nikon P-series buyers use RAW on a regular basis,
JPEG-only users usually do not bother buying advanced compact.
I will assert you don't have that data and are just making statement that suits your agenda. I have observed enough people to have a strong feeling people do buy advanced cameras capable of RAW shooting, many much more expensive than G15 or P7700 here, that they never take out of JPG only mode.
If you shoot JPEG 99% of the time does not mean that others do not use RAW to get best possible results from the cameras.
Given all this, however, I think you might be a bit extreme.
I am sorry but I don't find my expectation from lens on G15 "extreme" even a little bit. I find it reasonable.
Just set G15 shaprness to +2, NR to Low, Contrast to +2 and repeat the tests.
Please explain to us what will increasing of sharpness and contrast do for area of picture that is lacking pixel info, if you can? Cause all it will do is make that area look even worse, and detoriate rest.
It's great that Nikon, and also Olympus, have taken the pain to put into these cameras very sharp lenses. However, the sharpest lens may not be the only decisive factor *for me*.
I agree that sharpness isn't everything... Take a look at samples showing lower right corner.
And now take some pictures in the artificial light and see how bad is Nikon's AWB comparing to Canon's.
I _did_ take G15 vs. P7700 side by sides in artificial light and found P7700's white balance under artificial lighting much better than G15's. Once again it seems to me you are not speaking from any hands on experience and are instead taking wild shots in the dark blinded by your agenda. Do you have any actual hands on experience with both or not?
You said you do not shoot RAW, so try to correct AWB error properly with your Nikon.
_Who_ said I do not shoot RAW? Where exactly you are pulling that one from? Direct link, please.
Regarding VR, there are no conclusive tests so far
to make a claim that IS in Canon G15 is worse than VR in Nikon P7700
Only consluive test I ever need is me taking many side by side shots over many scenes and then counting how many I could keep from one vs. other. For me Nikon won that one by quite a lead. It was giving me many stable shots even at 200mm F4 that were blurred on G15's 140mm 2.8.
