Camera

In life an artist has three bestfriends- things and/or people that inspire them, their creativity and last but not least... a trusty camera.
In my life I have ten neccesities and priorities- family, friends, special someones, food, water, oxygen, inspiration, creativity, pets and ofcourse a camera to capture all things beautiful and unique.
If you know me the slightest bit I'm sure you know how I practically live off those images captured by my 500D is great lugging it around to meet-ups and parties proves that it's not much on the practical side which bring brings me to the topic of this post.
I am on look out for a compact camera with killer skills that can be compared to an SLR (ofcourse after I save up that is) and the candidates are:

Yes i've gone to the dark side- it's not a canon but the Panasonic LX3 is a confromist in the canon world.

canon s90And the front runner is *drum role*... the canon G11

Yes I'm a camera geek, what can I do?
