My user experience on the G15.
2

Firstly i have the G12 so i guess im comparing it to that, and that alone, had it for two days now and i must say i like it as much as the G12, only slightly better though. The removal of the articulating LCD did not bother me to much, and shooting at high ISO well i dont do much High ISo stuff so not bothered about that as with the movie mode never used one yet.

Im not going to bore and run on about this and that, but what i will say is its slightly better AF wise and the F1.8 comes in handy, am i glad i bought it mostly very much so. Is it worth upgrading from the G12, well thats a hard question, some might find lack of the articulating LCD a put off, but for me it makes up in a brighter lens and quicker AF.

Problems:

None to mention.
