Before I went looking for a little p&s digital camera on Saturday I checked some specs. I would very much like to have looked at the Pentax Optio 33LF. I could have bought one from Amazon, but I wanted to be able to play with several cameras before I chose which to buy, so I went to all the camera shops and a few of the electronics shops in Central London. None of them had this camera available. They were swamped by Nikons, and that's what I bought. -- Cheers, Bob
