Please add Flash units. You've got a great extensive database of camera and lenses. You are the destination website to check out specs and reviews on these. It would be nice to have flash units...

Probably true to us camera junkies . . . but you have to admit that its a pretty solid offering . . . If someone was asking you what camera to get and they didn't want to get into changing lenses ....

I was wondering when someone would take tough cameras up a notch . . . well done Nikon! :)

The other way to think of it is that it is still smaller and lighter than a dSLR. When on vacation and travelling . . . sometimes its nice to not have a big camera.

LOL . . . but how about those times that it might get accidentally submerged . . . like taking it out for a canoe ride where you might go for an accidental swim . . . :)

I agree with you!

Totally wicked awesome is exactly what it is! :)

'Finally got swivel on the mid-range flash, like my Nikon SB600 or my buddies' Canon 430EX flash units - the reason why I...

Totally wicked awesome is about all I can say about that! Love it!

"These cameras are also a good choice for young children, who are famous for breaking anything remotely fragile."

Funny you should say that. My youngest (5 years old) uses our Olympus 850sw. And...

Having fun doesn't always have to make sense? <grin>

A low cost K to Q adapter is next on my list so I can get my Pentax-A 100mm f4 on my Q to try it out. Also have some extension tubes to see if that works too. :)

Good point. Esp. since the Canon's have an 18-135mm option, which I just pointed out to someone asking me about getting a dSLR to learn and for vacations.

Yeah, but if it works, it works. Also . . . when you go looking for the lens on-line, none of the older 18-135 lenses will pop up! <grin>

Hey . . . is there a VR sticker for my Nikon 18-135mm?

Nice. A "smaller" super zoom for walkabout or vacation! That has VR! I use my old Nikon 18-135mm all the time, but always had to concede to my Canon buddies that their 18-135mm had IS where as the...

Love 'em! Sooooo cute!

Like the article. It doesn't always have to be about the camera . . . sometimes it can be about the pictures . . . :)
