Canon G9: a lot of oomph in a small package

I'm a Nikon guy, no doubt, and usually I shoot using my Nikon D200 with the Nikkor 17-55mm ƒ2.8, Nikkor 70-200mm ƒ2.8 and Nikkor 50mm ƒ1.4 attached, but recently I've been using the Canon G9 more and more.

I really like this compact camera, ok I'll agree the ISO really stinks from 200 and up and getting useless by 400, but hey, it's a small and really nice walk-around-camera, and it does incredibly well shooting video (up to 1024x768) in very dim light, like in a dark office meeting room with only dimmed spots in the ceiling.

What does it for me though, is that it shoots in RAW mode, and at 12 megapixels, those files are really nice, and can endure quite a bit of tuning.
