5d Mark II VS. Canon G9

I've been challenging myself lately to step away from my nice fancy 5d Mark II and pick up some consumer grade cameras. I can't depend upon always having the right tools to take a picture when I need them. So recently I picked up a Canon G9 point and shoot and I've been having a blast with it. It's almost more freeing than the big slrs besides the fact that the quality of the picture isn't quite as good but you can make it work. The thing I was most excited about with this new little camera is the hot shoe adapter at the top, now I have a camera that can sync at 1/500th of a second with no problem. The only bummer I've noticed so far is the noise is pretty bad on it. Anyways here is two pictures the first taken with the 5d mark II the second with the g9, I say this is a pretty impressive little point and shoot.
