Re: Had a G15 that broke...

So I agree with the OP...there isn't much ado about the G16.  I had the G15 - wanted a better point and shoot for when my 7D or 50D was too big to carry.  Loved the capabilities of the G15 and it was great until....the view finder failed and the camera had to be replaced.  Best Buy didn't have any more G15's so I paid $50 and went home with a G16.

Haven't had it long but I absolutely love the convenience of wifi uploading to my computer or iPad.  I have also noticed it is a much faster camera - you can click picture after picture with little delay.  The video is also very good.  I haven't had it long enough but so far, I'm very happy I was forced to upgrade.

comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and
controversy. MLK
