Swapping my Canon digital SLR for a Canon G9?

The key to taking great photos is always having your camera with you and taking lots of shots. Therefore I'm considering switching to a Canon G9. Anybody have an opinion? Reviews are great.

Answer
That is the key, but downgrading your camera is not the way to go. You will loose far too many features (interchangeable lenses, the large sensor in the DSLR, VERY low shutter lag, well the list goes on and on).

I am a pro and I carry at least one DSLR and three lenses every where I go. I keep it secured in my car, out of view. I also have a little point and shoot for taking idea shots when I don't have the DSLR in my backpack.

Keep your DSLR and buy a nice compact camera. You will notice the difference in the way they work soon enough.

Recommendations for a mirrorless camera?

Isabella

I'm looking into purchasing a mirrorless camera. I am a frequent traveler and have found that lugging around my DSLR while backpacking has become a huge hassel. For under $700 what camera would give me the best bang for my buck? After reading though some year end reviews the Olympus PEN E-PM2 seems to rate highly. Does anyone have any thoughts on this camera or on any other compact cameras on the market?

Answer
the olympus is a very good camera a comparable one (slightly better, and is more expensive: $1100) is the sony nex 7 or the fujifilm xe-1.

but with your budget the olympus is by far your best choice.
