Many of us have the Powershot Gx series cameras for those days that we don't carry the big stuff. My wife found the left end of the camera strap dangling on her G10, and found that the 2 screws holding in the attachment plate on the left side had disappeared. I checked my G9 and, although the attachment plate is somewhat different, one of the screws had apparently worked itself out, too. Fortunately we discovered this early enough to avoid a costly fall of the cameras.
Please check these anchor plates on your G-series cameras. (I suppose on all of your cameras.)
Any thoughts on using either LocTite on the threads, or a spot of nail enamel on the heads after we get the replacement screws?
