Re: What to get that will do as well as the old G9-G10 cxameras

I've just bought a G16 - a return which I got for an excellent price. My previous P&S was an A650 - the G9 in cheap packaging (fewer dials, and no raw, but the same sensor, lens and "brains"). The difference is phenomenal. Much faster to focus, MUCH better in low light. I no longer used my A650, preferring to cart around the dslr with a 50mm. Today, for an outing, I took the G16 and didn't miss the dslr, and checking the images at home on 27", I still haven't changed my mind.

I had sworn I would never buy a camera without a flip-screen, but the G16 is, so far, good enough (AT ITS CURRENT PRICE) for me to forgive it for this major flaw.

I can't remember what the G9 vs G10 difference was. As far as I understand G16 = G15 but with new processor which leads to faster AF.
