yeah...i've used Xacti's since the C4. Its just a nice design...and has always done well for me. i like that it's like a little video camera that takes photos....versus a little photo camera that takes video. without knowing being tested, the waterproof E-1 might have a leak in it. i think hats why the screens go out after time. (still records fine though) We just mailed ours to Japan so they could test it. we'll see if they actually fix problems...or ignore them. so far so good. Canon came out with a similar design last year that I havent tried yet. jay -- http://jaydedman.com 917 371 6790 Professional: http://ryanishungry.com Personal: http://momentshowing.net Photos: http://flickr.com/photos/jaydedman/ Twitter: http://twitter.com/jaydedman RSS: http://tinyurl.com/yqgdt9
