Changed for the evening to a just finished 187 on red12 baseball strap (thanks simon)

This on has the "Franzisco DW mod" (Paper does it as well as top datewheel).

minor things to do:

-align the hour and minute hand

-relume the hands with proper coloured lume

-find a pearl, as this one got lost during assembling

-CG pin mod

-seal the He-valve and datepusher

and then I think I'm done!!

Just received my 6 year-old (long out of warranty) A80 back from Canon service (10 days from the day I shipped it to the day it arrived back at my door, repair cost (including shipping both ways) = 0 - Canon's customer service is truly AMAZING!!!!!!!!!)

Of course, my (4MP & non-IS) p&s cannot match the succulent dof I get from its bigger (slr) brother mated to a Contax/Zeiss lens, but I still find the images it produces to be more than adequate (& often brilliant)

(All hand-held in Auto/Macro mode & sharpened/re-sized only)

All in all, this camera takes more pleasing pictures (much less noise/color fringing) than either the SX10IS or G10 did. Newer clearly does not always translate to better.
