Out of the box the G12 is a very capable camera for the advanced amateur or professional photographer looking for a piggyback camera to add to their bag of tricks and take into the field.
Pros:
- Size Size Size
- the size of the camera makes it fit well into a small case logic case on the hip belt of a backpack for fast access on the trail while riding or hiking
- and for more protection into a small pelican case inside a camelback or backpack without sacrificing room for essential gear needed...
Cons:
- in video mode the controls were primitive at best and there was no optical zoom during recording
- also the exclusion of an external microphone jack is something to make note of
- Shutter lag
- yes its a point and shoot
- and yes its gonna have lag but timing fast action can be tricky if your finger is...

Canon PowerShot G12 Review
No surprise here - the Canon PowerShot G12 is an excellent camera with HD video that will appeal to loads of enthusiasts. But - and this is a big but - for around $100 more you can get a Sony NEX-3, a very compact camera with a much larger 14.2MP APS-C sensor, interchangeable lens capability, 720p...
Pros:
- Very good picture quality
- Low noise even in very low light
- Tweaks galore
- HDR a great option for still subjects
Cons:
- Expensive
- Too much noise at elevated ISOs
- No dedicated video button
- May be the end of an era
