Perhaps I can get back in the water on Monday. More to follow...

I just dropped my new G12 into the Canon housing. It looks like everything in functional with the exception of the new front wheel. No big deal. I would call in sick to work tomorrow, if we did not have this Typhoon bearing down on us.

I noticed today that Canon has the G12 users manual posted to their website. Also, I ordered the G12 online. I wish I had this last Tuesday when me and 11 other divers spent 6 minutes on the USS Emmons.

The G12 is now available, just about everywhere - except where I am at. Bonn appetite!

It is always good to keep your snapper happy.

I just noticed that the Beach Camera web site is showing the G12 as in stock. They also want to charge me extra to ship to an APO in Japan.

The G Series has a hot shoe. For underwater, that may not be such a big deal, but on land it makes for some better lighting if you already have a speedlite in your possession. Don't bracket yourself into thinking you will only use the G-12 underwater. The G series camera, small tripod and...

I agree. Canon should work hard to clear this up.

Both good arguments. Value is dependent to needs. I consider my needs to be mainstream. As a recreational diver, I need a camera that works well underwater, but still leaves me with funds to purchase other diving equipment that is not related to photography. Coincidently, I own a T1i that I...

I do not believe that there is a better camera/housing combination than a G series Canon OEM, from the price for performance aspect. I have used my G9 down to 110 feet in Honduras and it worked just fine. No flooding issues at all. If you factor in the rate that new models are introduced, it...

True! I just saw on the Canon USA website. They list the WP-DC34 housing as the same for a G11 and the G12. So no need to upgrade your housing.

Why do automobile makers make subtle changes to the exterior of a model that fundamentally does not mechanically change for 8 years. Sales. Sales. Sales. People are more focused on the cup holders than the transmission.

The Canon S95 now shows as being available at Newegg dot com. No other sites have this yet.

Lucky you, looks like the S95 is now available at Newegg.

Thanks for all the viewpoints. It looks like the S95 is now available in Japan. But due to the yen rate, it is not a bargain by no means. I believe I will wait for the G12 to be released and read the reviews. What is another month?

I jumped in when the G-9 was out. I purchased a Canon DC 21 housing for it and got pretty good results for the investment. Now my camera is history. I still have the housing and have looked on e-bay for a used G-9. Oddly, these have been selling for around 300. Should I just suck it up and...

This is exactly the kind of response I was hoping for. Thanks! All hail ScubaBoard.

I did and we went to Small Claims Court. I won.

Hey, I dumped my girlfriend and she left with my G-9. So I bought a T1i to make up for the loss. If I had only one lense to mount to this body for underwater use, which lense would that be?

I just went to Best Buy in Tucson and found the G10 in the backroom. The merchant is not supposed to put it out on display until the 5th. They sold one while I was there.
