In Reply to: Why are you so reluctant to try a Canon SLR digi for $999. posted by Joe M on December 6, 2004 at 12:30:41:
It is SLR with manual zoom, image stablization and almost all the features I crave. And it costs only about $800.00
Although dpreview gave it a recommendation, they were quite criticle of it, which is enough to scare me away.
I also noticed that you can pick up a used Panasonic DMC-LC1 on the internet for about $900.00.
Follow Ups:
Nikon has a $100 rebate and many of the lenses have decent rebates as well right now.
Infact 'What Digital Camera' gave them their highist rating in a shootout between it, the Panasonic DMC-LC1 and the Olympus C-8080. So I had to dash down to the local photoshop and give it a look. It seemed more bulky then my Olympus C-8080.
But I think I solved my deloma. While at the shop I bought a used Summicron-R 50mm. lens for my Leica R-6.2 and is considered Leica's best glass. It cost about the same price as the Nikon D70 and not as bulky.
I guess that solves the digital problem, -just keep what I have and buy another lens for my old Leica.
and yoy can stay digi for post processing on computer.
