Well I've been shopping. We picked up a K10D and Panasonic FX30. A Canon that we looked at seemed to have snappier AF in the shop but the Panasonic was smaller and quieter, and has a very nice screen. Also seemed very responsive.
Also picked up a couple of 4Gb cards. This stuff is ridiculously cheap these days. Batteries are charging and the latest firmware has just been downloaded. I guess I'd better read the manual. - Dave On Jul 3, 2007, at 1:17 AM, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: > None of the Pentax digital compacts are that appealing to me. > > If you want image stabilization, the Panasonic LX2, TZ2, and TZ3 are > superb.
