Choo Choo
I took some test shots this past weekend with the Canon PowerShot G9. I'll be using it a lot on an upcoming trip and have yet to really test it out after owning it for several weeks now. It's been a busy summer!
I lot of professionals are using the G9 as their point-in-shoot "fun" camera to just keep on them all the time. This is my second digital compact, and at 12.1MP plus RAW files it packs quite a punch. In the pictures I've taken so far the noise is very noticeable, even at 80 ISO. The shutter delay is very annoying too, but both of these problems are to be expected in small compacts. Still, I find it very frustrating to use digital compacts after being used to Digital SLRs that do exactly what you want precisely when you want them to.
This photo of a Railroad Crossing in Northeast Arkansas was shot hand-held at at f/4.0, 1/1250 sec., at ISO 80. I cleaned up the noise slightly in Lightroom 2.0:
