As for DSLRs' I think both Nikon and Canon are comparable to each other differing on some features and pricing on certain models. The prices appear to fall in between each other. When the new D90 comes out I wonder how that will stack up with the Canon 450D and the D40. I expect it to compare nicely to the D40. But the new Canon 6D will probably knock the socks off the competition and blow the moths out of your wallet. > I would appreciate and > tips and suggestions from G9 users.

Read the manual cover to cover. This is a feature-rich camera and it makes no sense for anyone on this forum to repeat what is already in the book. 2. Shoot RAW and expirement: JPEGs are quite good up to ISO 200, but RAW is still an improvement. 3. Use the gridlines on the LCD, don't bother with the optical viewfinder. The viewfinder shows about 80% of what's captured, so framing with it is useless. 4. After you've read the manual, step through the menus and customize the camera to suit your shooting style. 5. Turn off the flash, unless you just can't get the shot without it. 6. Fire at will! When it doubt, press the button... 7. Visit the forums at DP Review where users will post photos with explanations of the methods used. Now go and fire away...
