I want to get back into photography, but didn't want the expense and outlay of a dSLR which is why I went for the G12. I've got a week off so will spend some time learning to use the camera. I will have to check what my laptop is capable of these days - it's about six years old but happily runs PSP9 and whatever version of Photoshop was around then. Think PSP9 had limited RAW support but will have to look it up.

You will need an up to date version on Adobe Camera RAW... (also, try to 'acquire' a copy of Photoshop CS5)

I'll let you guys know. This is my first move from a bog standard P&S into something a bit more advanced (other than when I used to faff around with my dad's SLR).
Initial impressions: At the mo, very sturdy construction - everything feels solid even if the case is plastic. Very easy to get to all of the important functions quickly. It comes with a neck strap which is a bit OTT for this type of camera - will be looking into buying a suitable wrist strap for it. The articulated screen is very useful and can see how much it'll be helpful in getting awkward shots. Has a hotshoe so it'll accept the speedlite flashes, and a socket for a remote shutter release. Very good at macro and I can believe the claim of focussing from 1". Will get some pics up this week.

I have PS CS2. Updated the Camera RAW but it still won't open the CR2 files. I'm having a bash with adobe's DNG converter at the moment. Not worried about "acquiring" so much as whether it'll run on my laptop!  :grin:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Look like top caps for the front struts!

 :congrats:  :congrats:  :notworthy:

For the KW adjustable top mounts, but made to fit the standard spring diameter, only question now is how much adjustability there is with that diameter spring?? :confused:
