I was going to get a Canon G10, but this gives me a moment of pause, as $300 isn't much more than what I paid for my Digital Elph over a year ago.

@Kaiser-Machead: I have a G9. It is great, but they took the time lapse feature out of the g10. The panasonic lumix dmc-lx3 is the one to get. Scott and Alex from TWIP rave about the image quality. Scott Bourne has professionally sold images taken with the LX3. That says a lot right there. I may be preaching to the choir, just thought I would offer some friendly advice.

@Mr_Hustleufagus: Thanks for the advice! I'm no photog geek, and I'm just starting to gain interest in this sort of thing. My SD1000 is way too limited so I was looking for something sub SLR that would suit me. I'll be checking out that Lumix. Much obliged :)

240mm is "equivalent to a 35mm camera"? What does that even mean??? 35mm cameras can have hundreds of focal lengths.

@15sunrises: The image sensor is enhanced with a Mithrel coated unicorn retina.

@Kaiser-Machead: Are you sure? I thought unicorns were endangered, and camera companies were no longer allowed to use their retinas on lenses.
