The SX20IS has full PSAM modes. The only ways in which it's not as nice as the G11 are the lack of RAW, the smaller sensor, and the lens not going as wide. But you do have the superzoom, the flip-out LCD, and a flash hotshoe (which means Strobist lighting is a possibility). The CHDK might help you with the RAW. I do wish, though, that they'd use that larger 1/1.7" sensor of the G11 in the S superzoom cams.

thank you so much inkista..btw, that is a beautiful photo..
i have to confess though that i am not a heavy PP user..i dont have the patience for it..i just do the basic cropping, darkness, contrast and saturation..(now, you are asking what kind of photographer i am..a lazy one i suppose..lol..
) my work really takes so muck of my time..i would love to learn though if time permits..
yes..i am going to get the gorillapod once i have my DSLR..that one is really versatile..
the wide angle lens and the RAW of G10/G11 are the things that appealed to me..i guess that is -the marketing strategy of Canon - to not pack all the goodies in one camera..every series has its own special feature..plenty of options but it doesnt really make the decision easier to make..quite the contrary in fact..
