I just wanted to say that I bought a K200D yesterday after finding very little to go on, other than your site, and you're spot on with everything. Compared to the beating the K10/100 took in the press, the noise levels on this camera are right up there with my roomie's XTi.

As for Nikon and Canon, the Nikon D300 is an excellent, but a little expensive; the Canon 40D...I don't now. Now I'm thinking about Pentax.fototramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01923497191653031702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640055500127815203.post-48462899864452635422008-05-22T10:28:00.000-07:002008-05-22T10:28:00.000-07:00Nikon system is silent and fast.

Maybe it's better (and cheaper) to buy a compact such as a Canon Powershot with a good movie mode as a second camera.fototramphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01923497191653031702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640055500127815203.post-16932627987483067912008-04-07T16:08:00.000-07:002008-04-07T16:08:00.000-07:00I see what you mean.

Image-wise, why take a 2/3" sensor when you can get an APS-C for less?<BR/><BR/>I was looking for some stopping point in between a cheaper cam that does video but has a tiny sensor and a pro cam with a nice sensor and no video. (Also nice to have a versatile lens without having to spend more $$$, but that's gravy.) <BR/><BR/>To travel around and take nice shots and video, I guess you really need to bring two devices, or compromise your photography... :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640055500127815203.post-1200262436350653262008-04-07T00:33:00.000-07:002008-04-07T00:33:00.000-07:00The Fujifilm S100fs is a great SLR-like camera wit...The Fujifilm S100fs is a great SLR-like camera with a large 2/3" (8.80 x 6.60 mm) Super CCD HR sensor, an excellent Fujinon 14.3x (28-400mm) optical zoom lens and a lens-shift image stabilization system. However, its weight without battery is 918g/32.4 oz and it costs about $700 (Amazon). For example, the Sony A200 Kit with Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization with 18-70mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens costs abt. $599 (532 g (1.2 lb), Canon Digital Rebel XTi with EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens costs $589.
