Here's a page that you might find interesting, comparing the Canon SX50 (a bridge camera) to DSLRs: http://www.pbase.com/dadas115/blog/zblogcanonsx50 Greg Lavaty is an outstanding bird photographer, so I find it interesting and worthwhile to read his opinions. http://www.pbase.com/dadas115/birds By the way, the new Canon SX60 just came out last month.

I had never heard about them till I got my latest copy of Birdwatcher's Digest. I hesitate to get one of those cameras with interchangeable, huge lenses because of both price and, at my age, heaviness! Any input will be appreciated.
