Well I finally bit the bullet and upgraded my camera.

After talking to the pro's at Henry's, reviewing online photo sites and trying out several cameras, I decided on the Canon SX20 IS. It is a remarkable camera.

The people at Henry's were quite helpful. I was torn between the SX1 IS (which uses a CMOS sensor) and the G11 as well.

But they agreed that the new CCD sensors were as good as the CMOS up to 1600 ISO. I have never shot above that....so really that was easy. I also can use a special card loaded with a script that makes all images shot in RAW format.

The cost savings alone in lenses was huge too.

They also had a LowePro bag on sale for 50 bucks that was designed to hold 2 cameras, flashes, accessories AND a laptop. I take my laptop any time I can when I am shooting so that was an immediate and quick purchase.

 

Practising with it now, way more options than my S5 IS. Lots more freedom too...oh and the 20X zoom is insane!!!

 

Looking forward to some HDR and night time shots :)

Looks like its time to upgrade the old S3 IS, remember you humming and hawwing over this or a DSLR last fall.

Keep us posted on how your liking it. Guess we are going to be seeing some good coyote closeups :D

Just don't wear your pomeranian suit. I hear it's bad luck.
