Hello Jim,

Oh, and 3x digital zoom just ain't cutting it.

Mine is part physical and part digital zoom.

Same here with the little Nikon. 3x optical and another 3x digital. But
the old Minolta runs circles around it with a 500mm on there and it sure
looks more intimidating. The quality of some of those aftermarket lenses
is so superb, the little digicam lenses just can't do that. Take a shot
of a structure with many vertical and horizontal lines plus sun
reflections off of them. Then do the same with a film camera and a top
notch architect's lens.


But you have to wait so long to see the pictures! )-;

Thanks,
