Re: How prevalent is the lens error with the G12?

I have a G12 and no lens problems. That is even after it accidently banging it into a chair with the lens extended. I was carrying it by holding the strap fully extended at arms length and the camera hit a chair. I was lucky I guess but I sometimes wonder if user abuse has a lot to do with lens issues including the shutters scratching the glass. I noticed soon after I bought the camera that it is natural to pick the camera up in a way that fingers apply pressure the lens shutters. I have been careful not to do that. There have been compaints by people of the shutters scatching the glass.

I wouldn't worry about it. The G12 is a fine camera and I would buy mine again if I had the opportunity.
