Trevor,

The G9 is a great camera, actually more than the sum of it's parts.

Three specifics that I really like are:

1. 20MP seems to crop much better than my 16mp G85. I'm a JPEG shooter and find results better than those from my G85 and equal to the results from my Sony DSLR.

2. 6K photo is a really nice feature that I use often. Much better than 4K. With Pre-Burst, you can always get the shot.

3. The top LCD is wonderful and filled with information. It even shows the battery level in my battery grip and body.

Inititally, I didn't like the "hair trigger" shutter button, but I got used to it quickly. There's probably an advantage to it for reducing camera shake.

You will love the camera. A slight downside(?) is that you will want another one! It's that much better and much more fun than the G85.

Jack
