"James Bassuk" wrote in message . washington.edu... it needs to take great pics, be quick to boot, and be small enough to fit into a ski jacket pocket. all feedback is welcome! thanks, jim bassuk edmonds, wa As mentioned dpreview is a great place to start. Something to also consider is the quality of video clip it does. A good resolution clip is a great way to improve someones skiing. Also consider battery life and switching batteries in the cold. I've got a Optio s that I intend to take out, so no cold weather input yet. Its video is not great but it is small and will always have that going for it even in a few years when its technically obsolete. F. Plant |

I've got an Optio S, took it to Les 2 Alpes at new year, Didn't seem to have too much trouble with batteries.

I haven't used a Mac since I was able to consistently crash them trying to teach an Internet class when I lived in Summit County. But yes, I like Unix based systems. ---------------------- Chester A man who lives in a glass house should change in the basement. |
