You will find that with these new-fangled camera units, you can now take pictures INSIDE buildings too. It's a real plus in my book but some list members hate this feature, some think it doesn't work like it should, a few wish it had less noise, some wish there was a better button to make it work, some hate the menu, at least one wishes it would interface better with older equipment, and some just like to bitch...
