I've had the 11 for about a month and really like it. I went with the 2 camera version and hope I don't regret it, but have been thus far really happy with it. This capture really benefits from the wide angle.
On another note -- 2 friends and I are just starting to plan our 5 day get together in Vancouver (longtime friends, we meet somewhere each year for a few days), and are looking into a day trip or overnight to Vancouver Island. Do you have any thoughts re whether a day trip makes sense or if we should just plan on overnight (we assume the ferry would work logistically either way). Bouchard Gardens is on our list but we haven't thought beyond that and none of us have been there for probably 30 years. We have been in Vancouver but not together. Thanks in advance!
@taffy That's exciting that you're coming to Vancouver/Victoria. If you just wanted to see Butchart Gardens you could go back in forth in one day (the ferry is 1 hour 40 minutes each direction). The gardens are very close (within 15mins drive) of the ferry terminal. They are large and beautiful so you'll want several hours to wander around. I'd recommend seeing the gardens and then driving the 45mins into the city of Victoria and staying in the downtown's inner harbour area. It's SO pretty! There's the famous Empress hotel where you could have high tea -it's expensive but a once in a lifetime experience, pretty buildings and little ferries that can take you to Fisherman's Wharf. The Royal BC Museum is excellent if you're into that kind of thing. You can walk through our Legislative Buildings and wander Government street and check out the little stores. Ogden Point has a beautiful breakwater within walking distance as well as Beacon Hill Park. Would you have a vehicle?? It's all doable with public transit but much more time consuming. When are you thinking of coming? I could potentially be your tour guide if you wanted. My email is kwindle@shaw.ca if you want to send a private message and I can give you more info.
Wonderful shot. Thanks for the info and link about the iPhone. I've been thinking about getting a new phone and it's nice to have this information about the camera.
