Hi ERN,

Are you suggesting that ~overall~ performance with the D is disappointing,
or just JPEG results?  If JPEG, in what way are you let down?  Have you
adjusted the settings for JPEG - I'm assuming the D has similar adjustments
of contrast, sharpness, and saturation like the DS?

Just JPEG results.
When I shoot JPEGs with my Optio 550 (which is all I ever shoot with the Optio 550) in most well-lighted situations, the pictures that come off the card and into my computer frequently need no post-processing. If I use the istD as a point & shoot in the same way -- good lighting, program autoexposure, save as JPEG -- I usually end up with pictures that look overexposed or need post-processing for other issues.
So, then, the P&S is a very good P&S, and the DSLR makes a poor P&S.
