Ok, my comment to this got lost in Neverland! What I said was that some of those problems you've listed are due to that particular camera itself. Sony Mavica's were on my list of possible camera to buy, but I was not impressed with them. One thing I found was the design to be uncomfortable and awkward. I'm very happy with the results I've gotten from my digital and impressed with what I've seen from others digis here on this group. The cameras Alpha mentioned are not toys, they're the real thing. That's why they're $3000+.

I am, therefore I create.......
