Best Camera I've Ever Owned
(Jane E Aussicker - 12/15/06)That just about says it all. It's a great camera. I also have the 70-300 telephoto lens. One day on a whim I grabbed the camera with the telephoto lens and shot it at some contrails in the sky, estimated at about 5 to 6,000 feet. With the naked eye, the plane was a speck. After downloading the photos, I nearly fell out of my chair. It was clearly a 757 in all its glory. I was tickled pink. It also does fabulous night-time shots and close-up stills. I only regret that I didn't buy it years earlier. Go for it!
