Great! Especially the first and the last. Have not tried macro that much. Mainly because I found a Canon G12 cheap (with some lens fault I can't see...), no lens cap and really good macro. My first Samsung compact, but I learned to use NX10 quickly. Any special advice with macro focusing?

I love the Canon G series. Had a G9 for years before it broke. The ex2f is a bit more confusing regarding the buttons and controls. A bit too easy to accidently move the "mode" and "drive" dials, and suddenly the camera behaves in an unexpected manner.

The little function button and menu is great though, quick and easy access to iso and exp. compensation and makes up for the lack of physical buttons.

G10 was the main camera for years. Not used much now. G12 much more useful with the tilting screen. And these G cameras can take a lot of rough use. EX2f more for sunday walks, and meeting ladies... But I will use it more when the light is not so bright.
