I've said all along that I'm willing to give the Minilux Zoom more credit
if its lens is clearly better than that on the Tvs. As I stated earlier I
would choose the better lens over the obvious shortcomings in the body.

Your say that the standard Minilux is a great performer in your experience,
and I don't doubt it. But how does the new Minilux Zoom lens compare to the
Tvs lens? That's the question in my mind.
