I managed to lose mine at a holiday trip in 2007 – which wasn’t all that bad in respect to the camera, but to the memory card with some 500 pictures on it. :-(
Well , eventually I got me at least a “new” G1 from eBay. ;-)
No need in getting sarcastic.
I’ve been a Canon fan and user for almost my whole “photographical live”, owning six different Canon cameras in that time. But despite that, I do think the rate of flaws in Canon camera products is getting unpleasantly high lately.
And I also have the impression that Canon tends to develop cameras lately which features that drift away from my personal needs and wishes more and more.
The fixed LCD in the G series mentioned below is just one example of that.
That was funny!
Canon sex bad these days. Bif AF problem for the Canon 1D mark III, the Canon 1DS Mark III too, the 5D mark II black points (even it’s ok with the new firmware), the 40D Err99, now the G10, I mean, what the hell is going on there?? we are not talking about 100 dollars products, but hundreds and thousands, this is just amazing.. (Im not trolling, Nikon has problems too..)
He has a point. Nikon even had the black dot problem first…. just less of a big deal because it wasn’t released at christmas for the DPR forum goers to take longer exposures of christas lights at high ISO, and then whine about a black pixel they found @ 200%
” An issue that, in extremely rare cases, resulted in noticeable black dots in images captured with Long exp. NR in the shooting menu set to On has been resolved. ”
