    Hey there,
    Yep. just got a G10 myself and are delighted with it... I also bought a pretty basic strobe ( Remora)and are amazed at the difference it makes to the depths of colours..

    Congrats!!! Did you get the Canon housing or another brand? My friend has the G10 with the Canon housing and Inon strobe, the photos are really amazing. You should have a great time with your new setup. Now lets see some of your photos!

    Awesome, now post some photos! Come on guys (and girls) we love helping everyone out, but you really have to put up some photos when you get your rig.

    I've just been copying my photos & videos onto my new 2TB backup drive. I have a 1TB that was approaching capacity!Not sure how long they'd take to upload. Another reason why I stick with a compact camera and not a DSLR or anything that shoots .raw

    I will trade you a point and shoot uw for your nice DSLR if you really mean what you say.

    Anyway, you can always save them as jpeg files to save space, and just keep the best photos as raw....then again if you can afford a DSLR UW camera, you shouldn't worry about spending $99 on a 2TB hard drive....lol.
