Thanks for the link. I'd forgotten what a relatively detailed job I'd
done on the comparison.
The one thing I'd add now is the difference in perception by others
between the G9 and A650. When both Marnie and I were wandering around
the shop "Half to Have It" taking pics, she was asked to stop taking
shots inside. In the meantime, I was all over the place taking pics,
including right next to the register, where I exchanged a word or two
with the woman there as I set up shots of items on the counter.
I don't think I'm that much cuter than Marnie. :-D So I must
conclude that the A650 looks much less "professional" and may be better
in general for candids and "flying under the radar".
