Greg

What is the problem here? He got a new camera, posted pictures, said 
that he thought it was going to be a good camera for hem, and 
admitted that he got it for free.

I don't remember anything that could be construed as an attempt to 
convince me to go out and buy this camera-he easn't half as 
enthusiastic as SonC is about his LikaLeica.

Are you just jealous?

I know I am. I haven't figured out how to get a free MP yet,

Allen
