G3 - Botanical

I enjoyed using the G3 and the 45-200/45-175 telezooms for botanical subjects, with and without the Canon 500D, in our garden and at the local nature reserves. At the time I was pleased with some of the results (and still am) and felt I was getting images that pleased me more, more often, than with the bridge cameras. However, there are lots of factors playing into this and I didn't do any like for like comparisons so I can't be sure how much the camera had to do with it. 

Only the first of these used flash.
