A little while back, I bought a Canon G9 point-and-shoot as a smaller alternative to my Nikon D300. In truth, it has turned out to be a very powerful camera, with 12.1 megapixels of resolution and the ability to shoot RAW and full manual.

It also has a macro mode, while I got a chance to play with this afternoon. I shot these handheld with no fancy setup. The G9 sure captured some nice color and detail.
