It was a tough decision. It looked to me like Canon deliberately chose to not include some features to make a distinction between their new models. The best example is HD video which could be included in the G11 but was not. Regarding your problem. There are some good Batch Rename tools to handle file-names. Check out a program called Total Commander. It has something called Multi Rename Tool (CTRL-M) which can help you to easily number your files correctly. First you have to rename files from different cameras with a different prefix, then put them all in one directory and rename them using an automatic counter. It sounds more complicated than it really is. <a href="http://www.ghisler.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">You can download a demo version here</a> Thanks for the comment Russ.

I have as well been looking for a travel camerafor my next vacation. My last trip, I took 2 camera's (Canons) and had a real problem with numbering and dating when I was downloading to a folder - what a mess. So I'll will take you're camera choice into advisement on my next camera as well as the choices you went through are about the same as my own. I even thought of buying another lens for my DSLR.
