I eventually went for the G9 as I thought it would be easier to use.

I cannot for the life of me get it onto the RAW mode. I have read the
manual 
tilll I am blue in the face but I still cannot do it. Canm anyone help 
please.
Also where is the timelapse function. It seems to me some of these
functions 
are locked out and not highlighted so I cannot select them

Any help is appreciated
