12.1 MP vs 10.0 MP on same lens ,
12.1MP will produced more noise right ?

Most likely will have a little more noise but for me I only print up to 5R so no problem lah.
 

You should be comparing by sensor physical size.

For instance, if both cameras have a sensor of the same physical size, but one has a higher resolution, the one with the higher resolution should have a higher noise level, assuming comparison is done at same exposure, ISO, with the same image processor (DIG!C III etc.).

i guess the sensor size in the G7 and G9 are the same right ?
so thats ,mean
the G9 will produce more noise than the G7 at same exposure, ISO, with the same image processor (DIG!C III etc.)
Correct ???
if that's so then i'll not upgrade to G9 .
cause upgrading from G6 to G7 already give me too much noise, and i can;t take it if the G9 will produced even more noise :(
 

is it the same sensor?

G7 - 10.0mp 1/1.8" Type CCD

G9 - 12.1mp 1/1.7" Type CCD
 

I cant wait for the launch of G9.
How much will it be selling here???:think:
 

ya, how come Canon does want to include a 28mm lens on their advance compacts.. other than the Sxx series, which probably has been discontinued.. :(

It's their strategy to make you spend more on the accessories eg. lens adapter + wide angle = more $$$.:sweat:

Its better to pay more for wide angle camera than having to add on more accessories as this mean more things to carry. :(
 

Read somewhere that G8 in Chinese sounds like some vulgar word. LOL.

I'm sticking to my G7 as RAW doesn't matter to me for those type of pics I take using the G7.

Precisely or I'd have used my DSLR system (if I wanted Raw as it's better sensor to yield better Raw results).

I tend to agree on this too as JPEG is good enough for most occasions. However, since I am paying more $$ for a high end PnS, it would be nice to be RAW capable for just the odd occasions. With the G9 retailing lower than G7 at initial launch, I am really tempted. Only gripe I have is no 28mm like Panny LX2.

Agreed as most others already equipped with at least a 28mm afew even begins at 24mm ok!

hi, newbie here, i'm also considering to upgrade my G7 to G9
what is the advantages beside larger LCD and RAW supporT ?

cause i'm a begginner and i don't need RAW , but bigger LCD is a welcome bonus :P
anyone know how much the G9 cost in Singapore ?
thank you very much

and last thing is , they both using same battery and bigger LCD means faster battery drain ?
and also will the 12.1 MP on G9 produce more "noise" compared to G7
???

Personally i a little bit regret my move for G6 to G7 except that i really hate lens caps on G6 but G6 takes more beautifull and less noise picture especially at night compared to G7
and i don't want to regret again i iwer to upgrade to G9
that's why i ask pro opinion here :P
thank yo very much.

If you don't want to use up your batt faster and RAW, then its not so much diff at all, maybe more noise instead=higher Mgpxl. Hence, careful thought is required for the 'move', bro;) G7 is really good enough for my normal use:thumbsup: G9:nono: as mentioned above/here.

must remember to "switch/Menu' setting when each time=(to get optimal-results) :bigeyes:you're changing from or back to "Normal/other" shooting mode, when using any of the wide-angle-convertors, tele-convtr and Macro-convtr too+time-taken for changing/re-setting menu=miss some shots/opportunities too:sweat: Only may upgrade if at least from 24mm wide:bigeyes:(its not impossible as some other competitors already have it)
 

any idea how much is G7 selling now?

Not only that, wide angle adapters are not good for image quality ....

Yeah, heard that too. Imagine you keep hearig "G pah", "G pah" in some Taiwan camera shops.....LOL :bsmilie: Canon really takes care of the local market.
 

Just came back from Comex.
I ask the salesman at the Canon counter about the availability of G9, and he says that the G series cameras is discontinued as not many people prefer the DSLR to the G series.
Does he just say that so that I buy a DSLR or Canon Singapore will not be bringing in the G9?
