Agreed! Even a couple of years would be stretching it given the rapid
development of digital technology on the consumer grade cameras. If you
trust the reviews on the Net, the new Canon D30 takes better pics and is
lower cost than the D1.
Rather than upgrading my Sony Cybershot with the Nikon Coolpix 880, I
decided to hang in there and wait until post-spring to look around (and to
see what the digital MZ-S actually looks and feels like!) before committing
any more funds to the digital world.
I'm not saying that my camera now is worthless; it still takes reasonable
quality pictures but there are units that have come out since and at lower
prices with better features that I only wish were available a year ago...
Cheers,
Jeff
