Thanks to Keith, Christian, Bruce, and Amita for the comments. I thought and looked hard for a new condition S4. Meanwhile, I stumbled on a good price for an Optio SV and have bought it. Willoughby's in NYC is offering it at $261 with a $50 rebate from Pentax. I don't think that I can beat the price for a 5 megapixel Pentax. Now we'll see if the daughter wants to go back to school with old or new camera. Regards, Bob S.
