Apparently he has purchased a number of digital cameras that he has previously tested. Of course, rather than you suggesting a different interpretation to his words, then what those words actually mean (and post it to the Lug), I suggest that you may want to email him and ask him if he really intended to convey a different message. I suspect he also knows what the MSRP is in US$ for the Digilux 2 as well, Holga's notwithstanding. Regards, Greg ----- Original Message ----- From: "B. D.
