Hmmm, didn't think of that, though the potential of borrowing an SD
2GB Extreme card is still a bit more appealling.

This is not for me, it's intended to be a beach/water and everything
else knock about cam, all it has to be able to do is take a decent pic
in daylight and flash in low light, anything else is a bonus ;-)

I use an xD to CF card adapter for downloading to the Epson P2000 on

Yeah, I have all the bases covered. Of course, I've never used the

I use the DSLR about 99% of the time. Last trip I collected about 80

Ah, didn't know that waterproof was important. I have the little Sony  
DSC-U60 for that.

I hate the xD cards too. But for the purposes I have in mind, one 1G  
xD card is enough. The Sandisk reader reads the format so I don't  
care too much, and 360 or so full resolution exposures fit on the card.

However, there is a waterproof housing for it:

Thanks for the suggestion IQ and sensitivity are important of course

I have the W10, with only deifference it being 6MP insteaf of 7 I think.

I quite like it, and IQ is quite good for a P&S.
The biggest adavntage is that it is much smaller that a DSLR
and that it is weather proof.

Like most P&S from Pentax, its macro capabilities are
good too, with lots of DOF.

That said, it has been a few months since I last used it.
If I go out shooting I take the DSLR :-)

Very good for hollidays and trips where you do
not want to take much equipment though.

Regards, JvW

Re: Grin and bear it. lol

And another...
I'm a polar bear nut, too...
I have a bunch of stuffed bears (I think Mark
ROberts might have met one of them)

This was from a zoo somewhere in the USA - I
thought it was St Louis but
after looking at this snobby fellow Kevin sent I'm
confused - the background
doesn't look right.  I don't think it is our NY
GUS (I have others of him.)

Anyway, I'm drowsy and muddled this morning, but I
knew I had one polar bear
scanned - here it is:

http://users.rcn.com/annsan/POLARBEAR.jpg

I have notes on where it was taken but can't get
to them :

My absolute fave polar bear shot - (by Art Wolfe?)
is BAD BOYS OF THE ARCTIC.
Three bears, the one in front is on his back,
propped up like a guy watching
tv in bed. all three are looking off to the right
(viewers right).  The 
card I have doesn't id the photog but it has been
widely published...
God, what I'd do to have one, just one, like
that.

Strangely enough, the (different) seller from whom I bought the LX offered
afterwards to sell me his 50/2 with hood and filter for $150.  :)  I
graciously declined, citing an abundance of standard lenses in my
possession.
