>Another camera that you might take a look at is the >Konica Hexar. This is a real little jewel. I'm beginning to wonder if there is such a thing as a Konica Hexar. I've been looking for one for over a year. People claim to have seen one, but no one seems to have any real evidence that it exists. Sort of like Yeti and Sasquatch... Leigh, before you buy a point and shoot, think about buying an older (read inexpensive) AF SLR (F501/N2020, etc.) with a fast 28 or 35 AF lens - or, if you wish, a zoom. You will have a camera system you can build on, an excellent backup for an existing system, an investment that will not depreciate 50% when you walk out of the store, and you may have a few more bucks in your pocket. Just two cents worth of alternatives. Bill Cassing
