There's a 3 page review of the *ist DS in this months Popular Photography
(DEC04) magazine. They had a pre-production model and there are no acual
test results, just a description of the various features.
One of their negatives 'Rechargeable AA's not included' - yes,
I'm really concerned that I don't get US$5 batteries with my US$1000
camera. I knew I shouldn't have ordered one !!! Which by the way has arrived
in Canada, and is currently en route from Vancouver to Montreal.
Should be in my hands early next week.....
I expect that they get used to having batteries supplied, since most of the cameras are using proprietary (and heathenly expensive) batteries that come shipped with the camera so that the poor suckers don't know what they are getting into right away.
