From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >>>>>>>>>>>> I'm waiting for some company to release a really capable small digicam with a decent APS sensor, a truly superb lens (maybe a prime in the 40mm equiv. range) and I guess some kind of deluxe EVF. Optical RF based VF is probably hoping for too much :-) I imagine something like this will happen eventually, <<<<<<<<<<<<
As I mentioned before, the Canon 350D + 24/2.8 is pretty much exactly that. >>>>>>>>>>>>> At this point I'm a Nikonian, I guess, but Olympus and Pentax make some relatively compact DSLRs. Pentax just release a small pancake prime lens that is reportedly very good. Either one of these cameras and a small lens might match the dimensions of the typical larger digicams and offer much greater controls and produce much better results. Worthy of a little research and fondling prior to a buy decision. <<<<<<<<<<<<< Yep. My only problem here is large scrawny hands with which both the Pentax *istD and Canon 350D are quite awkward to hold. Most people find them perfectly usable. David J.
