Read my original post, totally on topic, and in line with the ongoing discussion. Now read you're reply. Who's the childish one here? I call you an idiot or moron because what you have to say regarding my original post HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE POST AT ALL! Like the post went completely over your head, and you could only pick out a typo. Pretty much the definition of moronic if you ask me. Anyway, off to play with my toys.

Two weeks was metaphoric -- for a 14 year old, 2 weeks is a long time. For us, a couple of months is probably a better interval. Anyway, I'm glad you and so many others have appreciated my dad's advice.

Well, I too bit. I got the SLRn after Fuji anounced the S3. I
wanted/needed more megapixels and a full frame CCD.

Unlike Steve, I still have mine. No purple hot spots or color
shifts. Very minimal CA around the edges (easily correctable in
PS8 - AND version 5 firmware due out very soon will solve even that

• at least that is what Kodak tell's us).

Basically I am very happy with my SLRn. Now I can use my wide
angle lenses as God and Nikon intended.

I still have my S2, which I will keep for a while anyway, as a
backup camera.

But the technolust sure is strong at times. Doen't help when you
reside on sites like dpreview, where info on the latest and
greatest is always just a click away.

The advice to wait 2 weeks (or a month) is probably the best advice
you can heed. In that time frame, often another must have item
will have come along and your technolust will have refocused, the
old object of affection, forgotten.

...Sure it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the current generation, but it still produces a drop-dead, photo-quality 16x20 with no trouble. I still like my S1...
