I use a G7 and it is very robust.  I have dropped it a couple of times  
and it works fine.  I really like the interface and the optical  
viewfinder.

I have the hack installed, but I still haven't worked out how to  
convert the RAW files it saves.  However, I enjoy using the JPEGs.

Because it's an old model, it should be available cheaply or as a  
refurbished model from Canyon.
