In reply to Tall Clare:
I too have a G-16 and find it fantastic....it's the first 'serious' point and shoot I have owned and it is beginning to travel with me into the hills. Just so that I can prepare, how much of a soaking did it receive ? ...on a scale..
zero 0 = few light spots of rain as you were framing the Eigerwand...
Three 3 = Left with paper map in coat top pocket for a few hours in moderate rain. Map damp.
Seven 7= Left outside tent shooting stars as a heavy 20min shower comes in
Ten 10 = Bollox, waterfall 5* UKC shot goes wrong....total submerge !!!....for toooo many seconds...
Just curious, cheers.
Sean.
