Well where is Mike Johnston when you want to yell at him!  <g>

I was just out suing my Sony S75 digital camera at an awards banquet.
It takes great pictures with quite acceptable quality, when you can get them!

But two things drove me crazy tonight...
1)  The autofocus in a dark room didn't cut it.  
     I couldn't get the award winners in focus as they crossed the stage.
2)  The shutter lag is impossible compared to 35mm.
     Try to get the award winners as they walked across the stage
      and shook hands accepting their awards.  Lots of backs to the camera.
Between the slow autofocus failure to lock on and the 1/2 second shutter lag,
I'll bring the 35mm gear next time!

This thing is a fancy $600 point-n-shoot camera for your computer pictures.

Harumph!  Bob S.
