G9 pics from Prague

[Chris30D]

My wife just returned from Prague where she tried the G9 for the first time. She didn't want my instruction so I told her to just keep it in P mode. So here are samples from an extreme novice using the G9 as a pure P&S. I did post process the RAW files for color correction (AWB was not cooperating most of the time) and noise using PShop.

Overall, she is very happy with the camera. She just needs a tripod for the night shots. The above pics were all handheld averaging 0.5 - 0.8 seconds shutter speed at f2.8 and ISO 100. (I can't tolerate anything form the G9 above ISO 100.) IS did its job for small pics but if I crop I can definitely see the motion blur.
