My main objective was to have something light and convenient to carry around. The GF1 and its interchangeable lens was my first option. The price though was a major obstacle. I don't believe in spending over 3k for this camera. Might as well I buy some good lens for my SLR.
So the next best option is the Canon Powershot G11. Sure it comes with a smaller sensor, but I am confident that in my hands we'll see some great shots.
So the G11 it is..
