Canon G12 or Nikon P7000??

[JoeRito]

Can anyone who has worked with one of these camera's comment on its worthiness as a rig today? Dont want a DSLR, only have used camera money and want an advanced compact. I have found each of these two cameras in premiun used condition. I realize there are others choices, but Ive narrowed it to these two. Please post a comment on either of these as a worthy weekend shooter. Thanks Mac'ers!

I've had the G12 for a couple of years now, and it has travelled with me tens of thousands of miles. It's been a great camera that I use simply as a P&S, rarely using any of advanced features. IQ is great, especially considering its era/pricepoint. I don't have any experience with the the P7000, but the zoom range alone will likely make it a more versatile camera for you.
