This might just be the thing that gets me to switch. I use "Show Image" for the image search all the time.

Same! If I want an image, I'm going to get it one way or another. Might as well use a tool that doesn't actively try to get in my way.
Edit: Well it seems this is from legal pressure from Getty. Unfortunately that reason isn't enough to stop me from switching.

You can still right-click -> View Image/Open image in new tab/etc., of course, but I do agree the Show Image button was handy.

Well no, it wouldn't be such a big deal if this was the case.
If you do that you usually end up with a low-resolution image on a url of the form https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?...

Do you? I don't. I'm using google.co.uk on PC, with both Chrome and Firefox, and can always freely get the image this way.
You do have to wait for the image to have fully loaded, mind, but otherwise it's quite literally embedding the image anyway - right-click, View Image, and you've got it.

You're right clicking the tiled image on the results page.
If you left click a result first to give it focus, and then right click->open in new tab you'll get the original, full size, image.
