Shortly before Christmas in 2008 I started a little experiment. You see, for the longest time I had been a Canon shooter. I had been solely using Canon cameras since the days of film but I had become increasingly frustrated with my camera of the time and the way Canon was developing its products (rebel after rebel but no mid range replacement). Still, I had a significant investment in Canon lenses and accessories so I didn’t want to jump ship and then regret it. Instead I decided to buy a mid range Nikon and try it out before making any decisions on what to do. You can read about my original thoughts on why I was doing this on this post on my technology blog. It’s now a little over a year since I first got my D90, so how has this little experiment played out? Read on to find out.

Digital Photography Review gives the Canon G11 their usual thorough work over in their comprehensive 21 Page review. I have to say, the Canon G Series is camera I was always interested in until recently. I think that the range has been made defunct by cameras such as the Panasonic GF1 and the Olympus Digital Pen. Still, many users swear by the previous models and this looks to be a lot better thanks to its lower resolution sensor. Now, if only Canon would apply the same logic to their DSLRs.
