<p><strong>Canon PowerShot G15

</strong>I’m not sure where the G13 and G14 went, but they will definately be missed. Here’s an image of the imminent G12 replacement.<strong> </strong></p>
<p>It’s pretty closely specced to the G12. Add DIGIC V and a faster lens, the f/1.8 looks good. The flash is now a popup as well. Here’s hoping the viewfinder is a bit better.</p>

I enjoyed the G12 while it lasted. Had it in a softcase, placed it on the seat of my motorcycle for a moment, bumped it with my arm and it fell to the ground (my fault) and the flip out screen never worked again. The seat height is 32 inches. The quote to fix it was almost half the price of a new one. Yikes. Let's hope the G15s are built a little tougher.

Maybe next time, you can secure a belt bag (wear it of course), leave it there when you're not using and wear the neck strap whenever you want to use it. For me, I treat my photography equipment like a fragile glass. Sure, it's a little bit awkward but at least I can still use it the next day. Anyway, I sure hope G15 will kick-ass. :)

Hmph, a CR 0.5? How imminent? How good is the source?

Probably to be announced at the show for availability in November :(
I want one and I want it now! Not some vague time in the future,
same size sensor but possibly CMOS, surely wont be priced higher than the G1X?
