Yes, a camera that no picture is not going to be better than the camera that
gets taken out :-)

Not surprising assessment. This is why there are so many excellent and even
great cameras - for different reasons. It's only brand bigots that insist on
"how can a $300 VC equals that of the $6000 Leica." Well it can, if that
someone cannot afford the Leica lens :-)
