        Thanks holla and laxlife1234 for your responses the insight.

        I am sort of out growing my G10 in shots that I want to take but just can't because of the limitation the G10 has lens and speed wise.

        I know the lug factor as well as the price point on the lens' I am looking at but it should hopefully be well worth it with the added ability. Now to also start looking for a nice back pack

              Fun yes but expensive when you literally pay for every picture
              Be sure to share some results

                  Unfortunately my camera broke (film, not digital). I took a picture and the shutter just never released. It is just stuck on the top >:| waste of $50

                      Hi all,
                      I was thinking of getting myself a new camera, I've been looking at the Canon S95, I'm certainly no expert so am just looking to upgrade from the cheap point and shoot Samsung that I currently own. So what I wanted to know is there any other cameras in the same price range that I should be considering or you would recommend? I'm just looking for a decent point and shoot nothing too technical and I don't want the hassle of a DSLR.
                      Any suggestions would be greatfully received.

                        D97x7, I highly recommend the S95.  It's perfect for what you are looking for in my opinion.

                              A compact I wanna buy is the Sigma DP2…. Stunning image quality, APS-C sensor, tack sharp, but not very user friendly menus and not much automation either. Consensus is, you should be familiar with f-stops and exposure when buying this. But it is an interesting option, on german Ebay these can be had for about 250 Euros, if you are willing to go for an older non-S or non-X model.

                              You won't find many favorable reviews, because it's lacks in many departments that other compacts excel in. It's a love it or hate it camera, it seems:

                              http://www.betterinblackandwhite.com/2010/09/sigma-dp2s-user-review.html

                              Probably not the best for you. D97x7, but maybe you got a thing for quirky cameras.

                                      BK - fantastic.  Now work out how you are going to get your arse over her in Sept and do ditto with the Gosport skyline…....

                                      In fact, will you send me a high res version of that, I want it on the wall of the new office........

                                            thanks, laxlife.

                                            I used a Canon 7D with the Canon EF-S 17-55m lens, shooting in RAW.  Av priority and aperture at f/6.3 with a slight overexposure setting.  The picture was taken in the evening when the light tends to work a bit better for landscape shots.  Had to do some work on the highlights in post-processing to get the clouds to stand out.
