Good cameras that slipped through the cracks.

Re: Good cameras that slipped through the cracks.

I had the same experience this week when I stepped out to walk the dog and didn't feel like taking a full rig. The Stylus fit into my pants pocket and I was able to experience the simple joy of shooting, but of course with the complex wonder of the incredible zoom range on this lens, all at f/2.8. Beyond being a capable go-anywhere pocket rocket for quick shots, this thing also doubles as a terrific monocular in a pinch. I suppose one could fantasize of an updated Stylus 2 with a higher-resolution sensor to keep up with today's displays, but all the same I am glad to have learned of this high mark in compact camera engineering, in time to own one.
