Ha....After getting my D700 I felt I could keep my D90 as a backup. Not being a total pro and currently doing photography portraits "once in a while", I just wasn't using my D90 at all. I felt that it would sit and rot before I really needed it in the field as a backup to a malfunctioning D700. D90 goes on ebay this week.
So...I thought...what would I do with D90 money? Buy a Canon G12 of course. I needed a new full feature p&s for carrying in the car, to the pool, to work, the park, 4th of July etc...
So I got it and started fooling with it yesterday. I couldn't wait to try out the special features. Here is one of the built in tilt shift and one of the "stitch assist" feature to put together a panorama. The panorama is a 4 shot hand held with the help of the stitch assist feature.
Please forgive all the "bad" aspects of these shots....I haven't learned the "basic" features yet...LOL.
You'll love that G12. I bought a G11 earlier this year. It's nice to have a good camera that I can keep in my briefcase, or easily carry cycling with me. Though I bought it as a "lesser" camera that I could keep with me at all times, I've found it excels in some areas my DSLR is short in. It has a great macro mode without having to buy new lenses, the lens is small enough to fit between the openings of a chain link fence. Oh, and it fits inside a copier.
My first digicam was a G5...now I have a G7. I've gotten many, many miles out of it. I'm thinking about an S95 as a replacement/upgrade since it has the same sensor, similar controls/modes and is significantly smaller.
