  1. Simples,the mewp will handle anything you subject it to within its capacity,if you drop load it you are likely to have problems,be it jumping out with gay abandon,cutting & getting a basket hang up from above,and not having a good setting for the suport legs,and movement at max that is stopped too fast. I hate the things,I own one,they are a very usefull tool,& they can bite back if abused.
  2. Sounds like a water pipe thats got kinkid bu the roots,or is leaking,that could do it.

    Oh dear Mark.....up to the usual quality!
  5. Had both,still got the g12,nothing between them in my opinion,the zoom is 5x optical,then you zoom digitaly after that(efectively cropping the image). These are great compacts with DSLR like controls,& you can buy filter adapters to take telefoto lenses/close up filters(achromatic ones are good quality).you wont get low light high iso pics of the same quality as a DSLR,nor a shutter delay fast enough for sports shots without a bit of planning,but a great little camera. Heres a link to some G series pics,& a few nikon D80 ones to look at for image quality. Click on an image & it will tell you in the top left which camera was used. Flickr: geoff321's Photostream
  6. Pete's advice is spot on. Alternatively go to similar dealer,& look at second hand,you will get a lot of camera for your money,something like a nikon D80,(I have one & they are still a very good camera). Go for one that has a low (sub 4000) shutter count,this the dealer can show you,its in the EXIF data on the camera,I would go nikon or canon personally. Find your target camera,then google it,ie (nikon D80 review),and read more than one of the reviews to get an idea of the highs & possible lows.
