Hi Martin,
Glad to see your pleased with your purchase!! A very good choice in my opinion!!

I have been a keen photographer for many years and I have a couple of camera's, several flash guns and every lens from 28mm to 500mm with all the motor drives and accessories that go with them. All paid for by selling my work!!!::lol: The only thing I'm lacking these days is the Donkey I need to carry it when I go on a shoot!! (which I don't)

So, when I looked at this camera with all the exposure control you'd expect from a decent SLR with a massive 12 times Leica zoom to boot I was impressed and felt that It was in effect an SLR that would fit in my pocket for the price of ONE decent lens. The only thing that stopped me buying one was the lack of a remote release.

To be fair, I didn't give the model number but I felt it would be the ideal camera for someone progressing from a compact without all the expense that goes with the SLR bug!!
