Art, I am thinking about a camera upgrade this Summer.

I may try to sell my Epson PhotoPC 850Z to a friend and
use the cash to defray the cost of my next digital camera.

A friend just bought the Nikon 990 for $750.00 at eCost.com,
so my 2.1 megapixel camera seems a bit underpowered. I did
recently learn that Canon, Sony and Epson are all using the
same lens assembly...

dpreview.com

I attribute the excellent image quality I have obtained to this
fact and believe that performance of Epson's digital camera line-up
is underappreciated. I was interested in the Canon G1, but the
CCD is ISO 50 rated and some reviews have indicated significant
background noise and color abberation in lighting situations
that
require ISO 100 or above. I am also wondering if it may be better to
wait and see if any newer 4.0 megapixel cameras are announced
and whether one with an mpeg movie capability might be a better
investment. In that case I would just hop over the 3.3 megapixel
class of digital cameras altogether.

Has anyone on this thread purchased the Canon G1?

If so, how has the performance been?
