Personally I wouldn't bother with it...

Uhm... I guess I agree with you. In my case, however, my son is 11and looking up to his Mommy very much. At this point he's only expressed an interest in photography because I do that (and I use a viewfinder on my Oly e-510). :-D

That's why I originally thought about buying him an Olympus SP-510. You know, to completely mimic he experience. ;-) I decided against it after holding the camera in my hand, though. Seemed a little sluggish and far to fragile for a boy with his temperament...
