Re: G9 to S100?

I also have the G9 and the s95. I still feel that the G9 is the best G series camera Canon has produced to date. For a while, I leaned toward the G12. However, the G12 lacks the extended range I like when traveling. And, it is significantly bulkier. But the wider G12 lens is, indeed, tempting. As for the s95, it is a superb camera-probably the king of the low-light shooters (perfect where no flash is allowed). As for the s100, I have seen so many bad and inconsistent reviews that I wouldn't take a chance on one. You may get a good one. But, the odds seem to be against it. Because of the many dissapointment stories, I don't think that anyone is sure of "what" the image quality really is. Buying one seems to be like getting a pig in a poke.
