best price for canon G1x ~ pm me

haha. nmind i got more than enough thunder already, hehe.

so have you been enjoying your G1 X?

Haha, I din notice that...just saw your post...Updated...

Post more photo to poison ppl around...wahaha~

I'm upgrading from using a S-series (PowerShot S80, ancient to the latest G-series...I am still learning. Getting to know the camera and it's limitations. I am impress by how beautiful the photos are at high ISO. Took a few test shots, but none worthy yet to post here as "poison"

The accessories I am waiting for are the underwater housing WP-DC44, extra battery, and the lens adapter 58mm Canon FA-DC58C.

Happy Shooting!

the Canon FA-DC58C needed for close-up shots. for me, I have a +4 close up filter so that is suffice for my close up photos.

nom nom nom ..........

good ISO performance but poor macro eh...
should i jump ship from G12 to G1X?
Who willing to buy my 1 yr old G12 with lensmate adapter? haha...

poor macro? no. it's NO MACRO!

what's G12's macro range?

the exact i not sure... but i know i can do good macro shot with it... which is something i like to do sometimes when tired of taking landscapes...

G1 X macro mode is 20cm nearest. How to do proper macro? Even my Powershot A1000 IS also can do closer macro.......... WAY closer macro.

haha... tat's why tat's one of the reason until now i still hesitate wanna jump ship or not...

for macro G12 is about 15mm (correct me if i m wrong), quite useful sometime...

But as G1X have bigger sensor, the lens on G1X have limited. So just shoot at 20mm then zoom in at PC or crop at Full Size...which is also a good solution.

i think i have introduced this method b4 in previous post.

Added on March 14, 2012, 9:42 pmOfcoz the G1X or G12 will suit ur backpacking trip... i spend 6 months with my G12 at NZ Backpacking...

G12 is working great in NZ...portable...long battery life....image quality....so much....JUST LOVE IT....

Compare to my friend (backpack with me), who is new to camera but carry DSLR, during the trip, he is like turn on and off...without shooting too many photo...and battery gone soon ( bcoz always playing around with the setting but not taking photo)

ehh you're missing the point.

Sure, I've been using that cropping work around for my many of my shots but the reason people buy it at 14MP is to use the 14MP, not to shoot the subject and have a huge area around it and having to crop.

Thanks for pointing that out...wahaha~ i should put some effort to reply post...

trying to download the above link..none of it i can acess..can give me other link for it?? due to im using netbook so i cant use the dvd tat provided when i bought g12 camera..juz get it yesterday..but zero knowledge on it..zzz

Seafood Spaghetti served with shrimps and sliced vegetables. Well that's what I named it but it's actually Bistro Shrimp & Asparagus Pasta from TGIF - new dish that would be available soon.

Guess what - photo was taken with Powershot G1 X at ISO 1600! This is not even a studio setup. It was just a food tasting session. I spent only 3 minutes there with 9 dishes on the table, got 3 nice pics and all the submitted 3 got accepted.

And 2 others are

My advice to anyone who wants to know HOW to get good photos - TRAIN YOUR EYES.

Learn to see what is good composition, learn to see what are good colors.
