If you know how to post process and noise filter, they can definitely produce stock quality images. Sometimes you barely need to noise filter, if everything is exposed properly and you're shooting at ISO 100. The HP point and shoot I had was always noisy, though. No matter what I did with the thing. Grainy noise, too. Some brands have much more artifacting than others - it's just all about the sensor size. |
I used Powershot before DSLR too, and also LOVED it, I still have images in my gallery shot on that, brilliant brilliant compact!

The best travel camera I ever owned was a 1970 olypus XA, its 35mm rangefinder with a F2.8 lens, its automatic but can be tricked by adjusting the film speed slider, has a 1 stop button for backlight subjects, manual focus and absolutely NO shutter lag.
It has a sliding front cover which protects the lens and when you slide it back the camera is instantly on, one battery lasts for over a year, its made of all metal and although its not weather proof I have had a bucket of water tipped over it and sure the film got wet but the camera was fine (once dry) and for the cost of a Digital Compact you could buy one of these and have 30 rolls of pro film processed and scanned. The best bit is because its film it makes you think before you press the shutter, the difference is amazing.

I just got the Canon G10 and wow the quality I can get out of that camera is quite impressive. I am going to start keeping that with me everywhere I go.

i just played with one last week. wouldnt mind your on=going field test on it....
i guess noise is the big problem ?. also how is dynamic range and fringing ? i had a canon s45 and these things really bugged me.
(my wife took my s45 to misty-polluted China. alot shots with high dynamic range were lost compared to my slr... but i guess that's the price you pay for portability ?).
