One of the other several reasons I chose the G12 is for its flip out swivel LCD screen. Great for kids shots down at their level.. exif:ISOSpeedRatings[1]: 1000 so a bit of grain! The date function is another nice function I haven't used before, except for video, and it puts a nice stamp in the corner, which is permanent! I also like the user settings, this had the level bubble on, square format, zoomed in a little, (it is great that a zoom amount can be remembered,, my C3040Z could wake up with a previous zoom), and the date and grid lines displayed...
