Nah, you need to be able to compare apples to oranges before you realize
they're different!

The lenses are more like Teleconverters or Macro Lenses, nothing in the
league of the Rebel.
If you want true lens flexiblity, go for the Rebel (or a Nikon D70). If
you want an advanced point and shoot camera, get the G5.
Another possiblity is the new Canon Pro1. In terms of features, it's an
advanced G5.

You should also take a look at the new Minolta Dimage A2:

But if you can afford it, I say go for Rebel or a Nikon D70 - those
cameras will give you much more flexibility!
