I have the G1, had it for a while and it has gotten me some nece shots.

Tried the G3 at photokina. It felt more like a cheap plastic version of my sweet G1. But the weight loss if probably a good thing. I had BIG expectations of the G3 but when I saw that it "only" had 4 Megpixels I got disappointed. I myself is not fanatic about more megapixels is a must. But when all the competitors are going 5 in this class I expected it from Canon too. Now I have this sensation of there will probably come with a next wersion og G3, maybe G3,5 or..... It feels like it a model V1.0. Anyone know if there is any plans in the near future. Maybe based on the chip in 10D.

I want to upgrade but I feel the improvements on G3 over G1 is not enough.
