These cameras are just fine for anyone with limited photographic ambitions, but the fact that you cannot change the lens, means they are far from ideal for more serious photography. I thought a lot about a second hand DSLR camera but firstly I'm not an ambitious photographer, I simply want to be able to take some decent shots of little critters in the garden and suchlike plus decent holiday photos (I wanted a viewfinder for long distance stuff as I've never been able to see the LCD screen in the sun on any camera I've had). Every DSLR camera I saw was really too bulky. Secondly, whilst I'm not against second hand per se, I was uncomfortable with going "used" on technology that I wasn't familiar with. I'd never know whether the bad shot was down to a faulty camera or my lack of knowledge about settings. The G12 was relatively simple when demo'd in the store.
