Good points, Amanda. My old point and shoot just died and I'm shopping for a new digital. I just wish the SLR's were smaller. I really like being able to just whip a camera out of my bag to take a shot that just happens.

This is great to know! We want to upgrade sometime soon for exactly the same reason; some photos just need to be taken NOW!

I want one. Our Nikon Coolpix has great resolution but the delay is killing me. But at least I can delete all those pictures of shirt-backs, hair, and sidewalk.

Oooh...I want a camera like this someday. I love the quality of the pictures. How much do they usually run? Is there anyplace you recommend to get them cheaper than others?

I totally agree. I bought this for my husband for Christmas a year ago; it really does take fabulous photos. We also got the kids the Pix Micro digital cameras, which are super-fun for them!
