I have read the forums and understand the issues. Fuji are working on a firmware update, and in any event the highlights are visible only on images with a light source visible and when blown up to 100 % - however, I will be looking at that as a matter of priority. I am more worried about dust as any zoom lens breathes air in and out. One hopes that the sensor is in an area sealed off from this flow. I want a good point and shoot with manual override, good build quality and crucially a usable optical viewfinder - the X10 ticks all those boxes. I was wondering if I should wait for the LX10 which I gather will be effectively an X100 with interchangeable lenses. But that means a lot more money! I will also be using the camera for video in places too small for a TV camera, like mounted on a magic arm in a car etc. So the video function is pretty crucial. The fact the camera looks sweet and gives me a stonking great horn shouldn't be underestimated. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ---------- http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
