    Canon announce G12

    Swordjo, that pic is a fake. It shows the popup flash from the Panny GF1, the actual pic is on the first post and would appear to show a V/F P

    Canon announce G12

    Anyone who's ever used or owned Canon's G series high-end compact camera will not be surprised by its (now nearly yearly) update. From what I can gather (via Canon Rumours), the new camera won't really bring much new to the table as far as lens and possibly sensor, but will now include a HDR...

    Picked up my new camera today....a GF1

    For what it's worth I think you have chosen very wisely indeed. I sold all my canon gear (a few L lenses and a 700D and 20D) which pretty much funded a Leica M7 with a 50mm f2 Summicron. The GF1 fits in with M lenses vey nicely thanks to the M mount adaptor. I now have 3 Leica lenses a...

    Dissapointed with Canon 200 2.8L (Now with test pics)

    I have this lens and am getting much better results however I was told not to bother with the x2 converter as the quality really suffers when its used.

    Lake District Advice Needed Please ....

    Castlerigg is a must providing the weather isn't too bad. Latrigg is nearby (Keswick) and as its a tiny 'hill' you gan get up there for some nice panorama's and still have time left for something else. In fact, you can even park your car 2/3rds of the way up it too. You could then make your...

    Is it worth getting a Flickr?

    Yes flickr can be useful. I've been lucky enough to sell some of my pictures to people who have searched it for specific images.

    Canon G10

    Isn't it a shame that Canon are slapping more and more pixels onto such a tiny sensor! I wish they'd just put a bigger sensor in the thing and drop it back to 8mp... At least it would be both usable in low light and not overly competitive against its line of DSLR's.
