I took a whole lot of pictures with mine before I got my istD. It's a
great camera. As Godfrey notes it can be frustratingly slow, probably
the main reason I went to a DSLR, but it does take very nice
pictures. Pretty good for low light stuff, given the sensor size.
I'd recommend getting an auxiliary lens mount adaptor, mostly to
protect the lens. Oh and there's a list for these over at Yahoo. Gets
almost as many posts as this one does!

I just did a BIN on a used Oylmpus C-5050. That makes me a double
traitor. Buying a digi-tal, and buying a foreign brand. I have
wanted one of these since they were anounced but had to wait until I
could get it for pocket change. Hey, I am buying a camera that is
only 3-4 years old, not 50+, but I guess that is the same thing in
digital.
Oh well! --
