Great review, I … Great review, I just ordered one. Thank you.

Aye I’ve been … Aye I’ve been looking at that, it’s looking very nice, of course the problem is the horrific noise of the LX2 (your review was the main reason I didn’t buy an LX2, in fact). Unless the new sensor is something special then I’ll probably hold out for what Canon are offering. On a different subject, the Nikon D40 is currently £207 from Amazon in the UK - with the cashback.
Say hi to your gorgeous missus for me, she’s the real reason I visit your website daily.

In fact all I want is a G6 with IS, is that too much to ask? HMM?

urbanyogie Said,
it has all the ease … it has all the ease of any point and shoot cam PLUS, if you really want to learn about photography, it has all the funactionality of a manual camera. Thats what sealed the deal for me. btw, using very easy consumer feature, i made my first time lapse film. check on my youtube page. now, i’ll check experiment with manual features. as cnet says is, it is zippy but built like a tank!
daveawebber Said,
another great … another great review…………..now where is my credit card to buy one (grin)
cameralabs Said,
To get the blurred … To get the blurred background effect, you put the G9 in aperture priority mode and choose the smallest f-number. To accentuate the effect, zoom the lens in and get close to your subject. BUT you’ll find compact digital cameras have a much larger depth of field than 35mm cameras, so it won’t be as easy to get that blurred effect. See our website dslrtips . com for advice…
urbanyogie Said,
Btw, i LOVE my … Btw, i LOVE my canon G9. I struggled for months to decide b/w Canon G9 and Lumix TZ5 and I so happy to have got G9! Thanks.
urbanyogie Said,
I got teleconverter … I got teleconverter lense for G9. i hv couple of questions in case anyone can answer. 1. on the setting on camera, do I keep it at TC-DC58C (teleconverter) or LA-DC58H (adapter)? 2. I,m just about switching from 35mm roll camera- enjoyed taking pix with it esp where I focus on leaves/flowers & everything else would be a blurr. HOW do I get that sort of effect on G9? I get very clear pix, but i want that surroundings-blurred effect.
RutMuggler Said,
so worth buying? im … so worth buying? im wanting one but a curious about the shape and size, too big or not that bad and b has it got enough in it to be worth that much, i mean i think it does but just tomake sure! Any advice?
Thanks in advance…

I keep hearing that the Canon G9 is better, but it’s best to test out the P5100 and G9 before making a choice.
All the best
