It truthfully has been a good little thing.
I'm actually holidaying in New Zealand at the moment, it has been out in the rain, salt, sun as it always has been, and it's been wonderful. I still smile when I see $$$$$ Can-ikon owners reach for their waterproof housings at the first grimace of a shower.
I'll have a look at the comp adjustment, the fault seems to inconsistent with orientation. Sometimes it's 15 degrees over to the left, sometimes the right, sometimes the bottom part of the image is cut, not always on the horizon. I seem to be able to replicate he error consistently with the camera tilted about 20 degrees upward however. Then testing with SR on or off proved the same randomness with results. But as I've hinted at It was known to be troublesome when i bought it, and occasionally, once a month or there about's it would need a gentle pat to active the SR system. So 5 years later, it's finally getting to the point where i may have to do something about it. That be a fair innings really
Now decisions decisions.
P.S.
New Zealand is just spectacular. We flew into Christchurch ad took the train over the hill to the west coast, and have then been travelling down it, into Queenstown, and now heading west to Milford Sounds. The entire place is crazy pretty.
I took the usual lenses (DA16-50, DA50-135, M35) and thought I'd be mashing between the two DA's. Turns out the M35 has recorded 99% of the adventure. It was at the point where I was trying to use the other DA's and it was silly. The extra weight really does make a difference. By day 3 the DA's stayed at the Hotel and I was much happier for it. Ah but it's always the case, and this account will be read and you too will take all your lenses next holiday because.. what if :P
