Wehaay! Jay! Nice one! I'm literally confirming the order on mine later today (as soon as my daughter gets home from Glastonbury Fest).

What spec did you go for robin?

Impulse purchase. Just waiting for the battery to charge up.

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

I love the chunky solid feel of it, as well as the fact that a lot of settings are on dials rather than fiddly menus. Hope it's as well built as my Traser!  :grin:

Is that Canon G12 small enough to carry around in a pocket, Jaz?

I'd say it's as big as the old 35mm compact cameras you used to be able to buy. Too big for a jeans pocket but will easily fit in a jacket pocket.

I'd say the Fuji x100 is much more up your alley, RR:









I'd have gone for it if had a zoom lens.

....Sounds like it would fit in trouser's 'thigh' pocket  :happy2:

I considered the Fuji X100 but can't remember why I thought no.

You now need to buy a Mac and Aperture 3:  http://store.apple.com/uk-business/browse/home/shop_mac/mac_accessories/aperture_accessories?mco=MjE5MjU5NjQ

It was released fairly recently, around Sept 2010, after you bought the 200EXR.

Other than the iPhone, I decline to buy any apple products. I'm happy with my current lappy if it'll handle RAW.

Well said Stealth. I doubt an iMac and any software you care to mention will help you TAKE better pictures.  :wink:

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.
