Bulky but convenient
2008-08-01Good to protect what you have. But it can be a bit cumbersome to carry around. Perhaps more rounded corners. But overall a decent attempt.

Good case
2008-07-13Much needed case for the G7 and G9 cameras. Attractive and rugged. Compact - not any larger than required. Includes optional clip on side case for spare battery and memory card.

Try The Psc 75 case
2008-07-09The Canon PSC-75 Deluxe Soft Case for PowerShot S1 IS, S2 IS, and G6 seems to work fine for the g9 and is cheaper. due to the slightly extra depth, there is plenty room for the neckstrap, and the small pouch inside works fine for an extra battery and sd card. I've really pushed it an managed to jam the charger in as well, but be careful not to scratch the motitor screen!!

G9 Case is awesome
2008-06-24This case is perfect if you need a protection for your G9 and that old school look.I use it as a case within a larger gear bag with my other cameras and also solo.It can fit on your belt so you can access the G9 very quickly when you see a shot you wanna get.It also comes with a handy spare battery pouch that clips onto the main case.... nice job canon.

OK but not as good as the Japanese model
2008-06-24There is a much better case available in Japan - made by Canon for the G9. This case is fine but it doesn't attach to the camera so it is either on or off. The Japanese version attaches to the tripod mount and can remain attached to the camera while you are using the camera - more practical and much better looking - kind of retro. To me it looks like something you would expect to see on an old Leica range finder camera.
Anyway the PSC-5000 is not a bad case - just not the best case for the G9.

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot.
There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them.
When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...
Driving with a cell phone is a lot less dangerous than driving on prescription drugs
There's a lot of debate today about the safety of using cell phones while driving. Statistics show that those who use cell phones while driving cause a much greater percentage of accidents than those who avoid using their cell phones. And the studies have shown that it's not just the physical coordination required to punch numbers into the cell phone while you're trying to work the vehicle that causes accidents; it's actually the lack of attention resulting from driving and talking on the cell phone at the same time. It seems that when you're distracted, you're more likely to cause accidents.
In terms of public safety, it's probably correct to say that banning cell phones would reduce the number of traffic accidents. But I think, more accurately, it depends on the person. Some people are operating on, shall we say, lower power CPUs in their heads to begin with. They might be zoned out on prescription drugs, and when you add a cell phone to the equation, they do become a danger to the ...
