I have a Powershot G12 purchased in Dec. 2010 so it's out of warranty.
I have had several occassions where the camera freezes and either will not open or freezes with the lens extended. I have also had times when the camera seems to be working properly but the shutter button will not depress. This happened on a trip to Southeast Asia where photgraphing our trip was essential and we misssed a bunch of pictures.
I used several freshly charged batteries and also borrowed one that was working in a friend's camera.
I am very disappointed in this camera.
Can anyone suggest a solution aside from sending it in to Canon for a $200 (estimated) repair?
Thanks
