I'm puzzled by the comment on the next photo:
Tech Specs: Canon PowerShot G9 (at 35mm equivalent); exposure, 1/1000 sec at 
f/4, ISO 80.

What do they mean 35mm equivalent exposure?  Are seconds faster on compact 
cameras?

i think they meant 35mm equivalent focal length

But they didn't list a focal length.

yeah — my take was that _was_ the (35mm equiv.) focal length: 35mm; it certainly should have been worded better; the notes on these photos are in general a mishmash unworthy of a good editor; many deserve more precise location info, for example
