Another camera that needs a strip of self-adhesive rubber as a handgrip to be usable...

marike "4mm is greater than 80mm? No it's not. Need a slightly wider FOV, you can always stitch two images together"
Not seriously, but you can always crop a 120 mm picture and get the 200 mm...

Exactly, and one wonders why no camera maker had this idea before, instead always competing in segments with almost the same feature set.
Looks like this could finally be a replacement for my...

I dont buy the "unexpectedly", either it was completely staged, or the photographer influenced the situation, in whatever direction, by pointing a camera at the man.
Domestic violence is a serious...

Hmm, I don't understand the sense of this digicam category (like S110), given the latest fast-lens offerings.
If one wants better low light perfromance/IQ - why not make a real step to faster...

So this is just the model to attract you, look at the dozen or so of cheaper bridge offers from the same brand and you might get happy...

In that very picture showing him angry one wonders why his anger should ignore the photographer.

Stan, are you saying that Mr. Angry signed this agreement?

There is no way a person taking pictures in this situation could not have an effect on the people.
So either it's staged or implicitly influenced.

Ok, your understanding conflicts with given law in Austria, Switzerland, Germany and Italy, at least.
Bad to know that in the US and UK anybody can make a portrait of me looking stupid and publish...

And the guy was not asked?

Truth is always complex.
Any picture is a selection.

No, "the same argument could _not_ be made for conflict photographers across the globe" - because these conflicts are typically of much larger size and a photographer will not influence...

Some caution about the originality of the story is advisable.
If it is for real - was Shane asked for consent to publish the pictures?

You're not forced to use the full zoom range...

And also nice that it is offered by a serious developer of digicams who has proven to understand what image quality means.
Remains to be seen if it can live up to the promise, as anything I've...
