BTW: Have you seen the new review of the Contax N Digital on Luminous Landscape? http://www.luminous-landscape.com/reviews/cameras/contax-n-digital.shtml Fascinating stuff. Apparently the image quality is better than APS-size 6 megapixel digital, but the camera has many other issues. Foremost among these issues is *very* high battery power consumption. Poor autofocus, and odd ergonomic problems round out the picture. >From the review: "High power consumption, small and slow buffer, poor performance in low light" -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
