I don't know about pretty. I guess they're okay. And some of the new
lenses seem to be upgrades in speed -- the 16-50/2,8 for example. It's
the prosumer end of the market, and it offers some benefits you won't
get from Canon and Nikon. I'd say that's good marketing. And for all
but some highly specialized applications, it will produce as nice a
photograph as any other camera. I would think the ten megapixel camera
will have no problem producing excellent 16 x20 prints.
