ED , I donno if I can handle the lcd blackout in bright light! The one I have now does that and I have to shoot 5 shots to make sure at least one is acceptable! I'm looking for the "What you see is what you get!" scenario. BTW, Fry's has a 2GB SD card for around $17.99! I'm gonna get one for my daughter's Canon Powershot SD600 digital ELPH. . Aside to Perry, that's the camera she shot the Steppenwolf vid on! Video kinda sucked(short cameraperson!) but the sound was great! Piranha
