[muglo] Re: Digital Cameras

Ilbert,

You might like to consider the Panasonic Lumix with four megapixel and 
12x optical zoom. It has a lens made by Leica, one of the best 
hight-end camera/lens makers in the world. It has image stabilization 
which is wonderful and non-stop video. It is an easy camera to use, is 
very Mac compatible and a lot of fun to use. I owned the two megapixel 
version and really enjoyed it.

I ended up with a Nikon 5700 because I needed the greater pixel 
density, but really miss the extra zoom capability, and the fun aspect 
that the Lumix provided.

If you have trouble with mobility or flexibility, the 12x zoom gets you 
in for the picture, when your feet or back can't.

Larry
