I am with peterke on this issue. More mega pix's mean nothing if you have a itty bitty crappy lens. There are 3 basic things in my mind about digitals. Mostly its batteries or how long can you use your camera before your out of jucie. Next is photo storage. And the last is the lens quality. If these 3 dont always equal out then your mega pix's mean nada. One last thing is the dispaly . That suckers got to be atleast 2 inchs or its pretty useless . Olympus seams to have the best bang for the buck for now.
