Powershot shootout - G2 vs G11

Yeah, maybe silly to even try this... And raise the iso to 400+ and there is no reason what-so-ever to even do it at all. The Canon G11 will walk all over the G2 there. But at base ISO (50 for G2 and 100 for G11) it is not clear to me that so many generations (G3, G5, G6, G7, G9, G10) has passed in between the G2 and G11.

Below are some (semi-) identical shots from the G2 and G11. No retoouching, directly out of cameras. Then after the photo, there are links to look at the JPEGs out of camera, untouched.

Anyway, like I said, the older cameras did not really do an ok job for ISO400 and above. For Canon G11 I think both ISO400 and ISO800 work ok. That is not bad at all.
