[QUOTE="Pruitt1222, post: 135407, member: 2683"] Sucks about your camera, those piont and shoot dudes tend to be a bit under built for any one but granny. You might have luck getting the repair covered by canon, They are pretty good about repair/replacement.However their hourly work rate is wow, I wish I made that an hour. If you abuse your gear like most of us maybe when replacement time comes around you should look for a used digital slr with a kit lense, Might spend a little more but my little canon xti has been droped smashed swimming and tossed and is still kicking. I think it just rolled over to 25k clicks, Had the shutter replaced once but warranty covered it. Another thought is pentex just relesed a abuser friendly camera called the w90,Take a gander at it. A little over 300 chips but it gets you 12+ meg, water proof to 20 foot, and shock proof to 4foot. I want one for my ddp but wife would skin my head. Hopewhat ever ya do it works out for you.
