Plus, the boyfriend wants a DSLR too so I figured that we can split whichever one we decide on.

I've been taking a few Photoshop tutorials to brush up before the camera comes - My friend Kevin is going to give me some pointers on how to process RAW pics once I get the G12. Also ordered a 16 GB memory card. I'll wait on other accessories until the camera comes in. :D
I went for the cheap DSLR. Mostly for astrophotography, but I use it for a little of everything. My processing skills suck and I don't get the most out of photoshop, but it dont stop me having fun with it. Seems like the G12 has plenty of the features you would associate with a DSLR so I'm sure you are gonna have alot of fun with it. :cool:
