This may sound strange but main advantage G11 over G10 is reduced number of pixels. 14.7MP is to much for such small sensor and for the lens too. More pixels in the same square means more noise, more noise (even in low ISO) means less sharp images. I think 14.7MP in G10 is marketing trick. Both cameras can capture very close number of details in low ISO but in higher ISO G11 is a winner. Personally i think G11 can capture wider range of colors and bright/black tones. G10 and G11 are grate cameras the difference is only minor. G11 is a little bit faster. HDMI output can be useful too if you plan to present the images to client on HD TV display.

You are absolutely right . Pre-IFA 2009: Canon has announced a handful of compact cameras including models aimed squarely at keen photographers. Top of the line is the PowerShot G11, successor to its flagship PowerShot G10 compact released last year. The G11 replaces the G10's 14.7MP sensor with what it describes as a high sensitivity 10 MP CCD though it still uses the same 28-140mm equivalent stabilized lens. The camera also gains a tilt and swivel LCD, though the size drops to 2.8 inches. Flash sync speed increases to 1/2000th of a second and HDMI output is also added. Other features include Dual Anti-Noise System (more sensitive sensor and Digic 4 offering a claimed 2-stop improvement over the G10), RAW shooting and P/A/S/M shooting modes.

It is not quite true. Theoretically G11 is better camera than G10 because of smaller pixel density (23 vs 34 MP/cm²) , quicker continuous drive (1.1 vs 0.7 fps ) and HDMI output too. You can compare the cameras specifications there http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_post.asp?method=sidebyside&cameras=canon_g10%2Ccanon_g11&show=all. I suppose G11 is best camera in the class.

My new Icarus Omni is here http://www.skydiving.lt/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=thumbnails&album=68 Thanks All

I got some sponsorship and must select one of Icarus canopy quickly.

Thanks. Unhappily I can not get any Icarus demo now. I’m a little confused about Omni and Safire2 descriptions in ParaGear catalog. Why Omni is classified for intermediate or experienced pilots?

Could anybody tell me. Which canopy has stronger shut-down power? Wing loading 1.3 - 1.4.
