My wife, like yours, is a P&S addict, though she burns more film than I do.
She is presently using an Olympus Infinity - can't recall the model number,
but it has a 38-105mm zoom lens. I'm not crazy about her results.
My question for you, and the LUG (and the Rollei group), is: Is the Minizoom
lens appreciably better than the Olympus, or than other P&S's. Also, what
about the Rollei Prego with Schneider optics?
In short, what is the best choice for a lovely but stubborn lady who
steadfastly refuses to upgrade from point-and-shoot?
