All subsequent G cameras have tried to pack more pixels onto the same size chip and have unnecessarily nominally increased their resolution whilst actually being worse in low light. If it works and you don't sell it its resale value is irrelevant. Thus newer Gs are "better" in ways they were already adequate and worse in a way they needed to improve!
