I agree with that. Two things the PZ1p excelled at: focusing on a bird in the bush without hunting all over the place or getting stuck on the twig in front of it, and low-light AF. The more I use the *istD, the more I think its AF is worse than the PZ1p in every respect. But I haven't given them a fair comparison yet, just seat of the pants impressions. -- John Mustarde www.photolin.com
