I thought this was the end of my quest for my ideal go everywhere camera. Then I saw it was 35mm equivalent at the wide end, which is a deal breaker for me. But from what I have seen if that is not important it's about the best compact out there.

A fellow wedding photographer has the G9 as his 3rd backup in case the other cams go wrong, he rates it highly.

I still have a G2, but on the latest models they've done away with one of the most useful features - the swivel screen.

It was very handy to be able to tilt the screen for low level or overhead shots.
