Easy. Fuji X20. X10 at a push if you want something cheap, the 20 is better. The 30 has no optical viewfinder, preferring instead an EVF. I have no experience with it. Ask Dave. If I'm grabbing a single camera to shove in a jacket pocket and nothing else, it's always the X20. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- 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.
