Just curious,
why would you want to carry G12 with you when you have G1X?

Hi KaanG,

I take the G12 as a backup when i go on a long trip as i would hate to have camera problems or damage & come back with no photo's.

I also use the G12 for macro.

OK, this was the answer to my question.

Other than backup purposes, what G12 does better than the G1X is macro.

Wouldn't it be better to carry a backup which would compliment G1X ?

I ask this question because I am thinking of buying another compact to compliment my LX7. The G1X seems like a good choice.

I don’t think any other camera could do a better job of complimenting the G1X other than another G1X the G12 dose the job just fine.

The G1X will take over as backup camera if or when a G1X Mkll comes.
