Well it is nice camera, but it's missing one thing to be perfect: f2,8 in whole range of optical zoom. I can't udestand, why nobody makes digital compact camera with fast lens like f2,8. It would be much easier, when they have little chip. 140mm at f4,5 is pretty much useless ind low light conditions (sure, IS helps, but it won't solve everything). Now I have all my DSLR lenses (except long telephoto) with aperture f2,8 and i'm really enjoying photographing in low light condition without flash. And another chapter is DOF - f4,5 with small chip must be useless for portraits
