    Your eBay strategy when bidding

    Compact camera advice

    I have a Samsung EX1 and it's a pretty decent camera if you're on a budget although the Canon S95 is admittedly much better. The EX1 is portable but has a sturdy metal body, nice bright f1.8 wide angle lens, good big clear screen on it which is tiltable and handy for tilting it away from the sun...

    Canon G9 Problems

    Yes I have had the same problem with mine over the weekend. :( I used it on Friday and then when I went to try and review my images it just won't power up at all. I 'googled' the problem and it seems there are lots of G9 owners in the same scenario. Needless to say I am unhappy as it is only 2...

    Hiking with a camera.

    I use a mountain bike lumbar pack and it's handy as I don't have to get my rucksack down to get to my camera. It's a bit like a bum bag :lol: only bigger. Not the best look but does the job!
