Anyone got a good link to the Canon G12.  I NEED one (I think)?…G

[DrPat]

Looks like there have been several improvements over the G11

Thanks DrPat.  I have the G10, love it and want to go for the G12 - I can't find a release date anywhere.  However my G10 is perfectly OK, I'm just impatient…..G

London, UK 19th August 2010: Canon today announces the launch of the feature packed PowerShot G12, the successor to the multi award-winning PowerShot G11 – the favourite compact of professional photographers and photoagencies the world over.

I guess you won't have to wait much longer

Thanks Beats

not sure if this is real

and the whole story

I hope not, I don't like pop-up flash and it then means that the ISO comp dial has to be moved and I liked it where it is on the G10 and G11…G

for the price I would consider the EOS Rebel XS 18-55IS, which will give you the chance to upgrade and start using different lenses

A possibility.  I already have an EOS300D (well it is Alex's and he never uses it, so I have it in my desk).  But I just cant be bothered with the bulk.  I'll try it again this week and see if I like after all….G

Just taken my Sugar Cane Hawaii's off and noticed the seem has blown out  Not over happy as I bought these in March this year; they're on rotation with 3 other jeans so max wear is probably 2 months or so.

Question: Whats the best way to get these mended? There's a Chinese tailor round the corner who could probably do it or should I hold out for a denim specialist?](http://www.flickr.com/photos/50204959@N03/4917352427/)

Pop round Weds, learn how to use the Union (You'll have to teach yourself) and do them your self…

[Simon]

Like it, cheers Giles, I'm there 

May just have a go with a few off cuts first, never used a sewing machine in my life before let alone an industrial chain stitcher!

Will post results  :-\

Another 2 questions for y'all…

• where do I buy Obenauf leather oil in €urope (best price/...)?.. If I wanna use it for boots, jeans tags and belts, should I get oil or leather polish or both?..
• do jeans stretch at all if you wear a belt on 'm?.. We're talking IH belt and IH jeans so any knowledge as I know it is rendered void and useless... 

[thomasnunnally]

Eli,

Definitely not an expert on either of these topics,:

I am not sure where to buy the Obenaufs in Europe, but I used the oil on my belt and it worked out great…I have no experience with the polish, but I am assuming that works better with boots?

I have been wearing the IH belt with my 07's and I have had some stretching still, maybe back to the original size, although mine are fitted so that they were tts once they shrunk, so they didn't really need to stretch much.

[Seul]

Yeah skip the part about the polish… Just need some oil... I have polish for boots... Just gave my Grenson a second, much more thorough cleaning. They look awesome now... But I plan on buying a tan IH belt and also wanna start taking care of my tags and belts so...

Cant you help you but the endless 'net offers this: http://www.sunglassesid.com/

I have the IH tan belt, and it started to get some stains from sweating in the 95+ weather here.  It looks much better since I applied the oil, and it darkened somewhat to a really nice shade.  I can take a few pics later on today, so you can see the result.  I think Beats posted some already.
