Added on December 3, 2010, 12:59 pmfr my estimation using own 8G card, 4G card can holds 1.3k pics shooting at full 10MP n 2.1k pics wf 6MP, both in fine detail. if use normal compression setting wil double up the storage capacity.
talkin bout fine/ normal quality, did any1 here rily look into difference btw d IQ of the 2? i m havin hard time distinguish btw them...

oso a trusted reseller fr HK, can't recall name. cost me rm55 for A+B adaptor plus flower petal lens hood.free shipping took ard 3weeks.
impractical... Put on A adaptor lens can oni zoom to ard 50mm b4 touchin my uv protector lens 58mm. put on A+B adaptor thn can zoom to full 5x BUT- serious vignetting happens fr 28mm-40mm!!
so no point using these crap. shud get a 72mm adaptor instead but so far i think oni Lensmate offers it at a high cost. ONE more thing is tat these adaptors block ur built-in flash,making bottom part of ur photo undrxpose. If u read tis earlier sure cancel ur purchase a mth ago rite bro?

Here's pic of my holy crap...

ur 72mm cap look quite bulky on our cam. but thn vignetting shudn't b issue anymor. gud buy since it's free shipping. b more patient, ur parcel shud b on d way. mine shipped by standard airmail w/out any guarantee. we nid adaptor for -
1. better support wf 2 hands photoshooting
2. lens protection
3. minimiz glaring
now my crap adaptor wiped out o d benefit above by serving me no purpose... sad!

if compare G to a dslr of cz regret, excluding aspects like portability n cost-saving. if u shoot a lot under lowlight n demand bigsize printout thn consider tis fact: D500 iso performance at 800 is similar to iso 200 quality on G11/12, given it's sensor size is 6x bigger thn G's. in term of macro, G's result is not too shabby while save u fr buying a macro lens for SLR. Since u shoot cars (static rite?) thn shootin n AF speed of G shud b edequate.

KC:
nice Boxster, u got an auto fan here. may i kno wat cam used for these shoots n oso d shooting parameters? to shoot whole car i would use smaller aperture fr 5.6 to 8 to increase DOF, means u can hav sharp focus fr front to rear part of d car.

KC's:
seem i m noob to tell whtr it's a Boxster or Cayman... sori out of topic. Shud go to Fast n furious thread instead.

mzhai:
i cn oni suggest u online outlet such as ebay, shashinki.com n newspeed outlet which offers cheaper price thn camera shops.

sharing of my Kuching night shot photos...

reference price for G11 is rm1599 n G12 is rm1710, so i think worth2 spend xtra 100 for HD video recording, hybrid IS n HDR mode.

superdupree:
great effort u'd put on ur blog... one would need a gud eyesight to enjoy d pics, n adequate command of languge in order to be inspired by ur poetic expressions.. good one!
