I have the G16 and I love it.

I'm thinking of picking up a nice used G16 as a camera for hiking trips . . . so far I have had no luck finding one to examine in person here in San Antonio.

Does this camera still have the tanky, metal feel of the G10? I briefly had a G11 and was not impressed with the feel of it -- seemed much more plasticky with the moving LCD. I figure since they went back to a fixed LCD it might feel more like a G10 again.

I've been using a Sony RX100VA -- but I just don't trust it to rough use. Feels like it might die with one drop. So many delicate components crammed into such a small space . . .

(I just picked up a really clean G10, and it's given me the G-series bug again . . .).

Good luck - all the G are wonderful
