This is from my boyfriend, Buzz (no, it's not his real name
). I thought some of you might be interested in a bridge camera for a child, spouse/partner, or other family member who might kinda like photography but doesn't want a DSLR, or even for yourself as a good camera to grab when you feel like taking some snaps but don't feel like shlepping all the gear around.
Here's his ad:
Canon G12
It's served me well for several years (I bought it new), but my
photographic needs have changed and it's time for it to go to a new owner.
Great little advanced compact, with the important controls (aperture,
shutter speed, ISO, and exposure compensation) all available via dials
or knobs, not menus. Lens is a 28-140mm equivalent with image
stabilization. Swiveling and folding screen, optical viewfinder, and
several video modes with stereo sound recording. Small enough to carry
easily in a jacket pocket, large enough to feel like a real camera in
your hand.
Mine is in excellent condition with fewer than 6,000 shutter actuations.
Aside from a few very small marks on the left side of the body, the
cosmetics are very good. The glass is perfect (I'm guessing there are
probably a few bits of dust inside, but I can't see them). All functions
of the camera work perfectly.
In addition to the camera itself, included are the original Canon
battery and charger, and a second (aftermarket) battery. Also included
is a Canon FA-DC58B filter adapter – this mounts to the body via the
bayonet mount and extends and retracts with the lens body – and a
circular polarizer and UV filter. These extras would cost about $80 if
purchased today.
KEH is getting $248 for a G12 in EX condition with one battery and
charger. I'm asking $250 for the whole package, plus USPS Priority Mail
shipping (tracked and insured) at cost.
