I echo all of Betty Garmon's comments on the Mavica (Sony)
CD1000, but I use it mainly for butterflies not birds,
though it has done a good job with some of them also. The
main drawback is the half-second delay between snapping
a shutter and the actual taking of the picture by the
camera; many birds move quite a bit in the half second
delay. [If anyone knows how to get around that problem,
please advise.)


Steve and Others interested:

I use my camera for taking a lot of flower pictures also - the Macro feature 
is great!!  And I've managed to get a few good butterfly shots. 

To get around the movement of your subjects - be sure to have the 'Steady 
Shot' feature engaged.  When you see the exact shot you want, slightly 
depress the Shutter Button - it will hold that shot for you, and if you like 
it, then go ahead and depress the Sutter Button all the way.  Has worked for 
me!!  Great camera, right?!!!
