Interesting as I walked to the Fujinon showroom/gallery today too and got to try the camera out again under better conditions than I did last week. They had it set up so you could shoot a scale model village. Lot's of mini people standing in windows and under covered porches so it was possible to get pics with shadow details to study. The memory card door was sealed so I could not use my SD card to save pics to analyze at home on my PC but I felt ISO1600 pics were also quite good on camera's LCD.
I still did not like the tiny EVF. I don't know how Panny FZ28/38 users manage it! My Canon SX1's is just so much larger and easier to see.

It's true, I quite like Pigeons
Yeah, Rick, I'm hoping this might be an improvement at ISO800 and above. I'm still waiting for more info on the AF speed in low light and at full zoom.
As for the EVF on the FZ28, you get used to it; it feels uncomfortable to frame a shot at first, but you forget all about it after a few hundred shots.

No, not really, Michael, there's just a few times that I'd like to get a faster shutter speed, and in poor light that means ISO 1600. I'm fine with ISO 800, but I can't crop ISO 1600 images as there's too little detail.

Looks very interesting Chris. I'd certainly like the extra zoom. And, as you say, higher shutter speeds would be nice at the extreme end of things. I look forward to seeing more of its capabilities. Have you read the review at dpreview:http://www.dpreview.com/news/1002/10020206fujifinepixhs10series.asp - it mentions about the shutter speeds at low light etc?
Thanks for posting the link,

Looks like pretty fast shutter speeds are possible even at long zoom and ISO100. Camera shows good chromatic aberration control too.

Is it just me or does not the HS10 seem to be less noisy then other superzooms? If i compare to my FZ18 the HS10 seem to handle iso 800+ way better then my panny does.

On the photos i've seen and i've seen loads now as i've been searching them out,m it looks like the HS10 has excellent high ISo, low light capabilities.
The pics i've seen with ISO1600 are not much worse than ISO400 with my current camera , the Canon SX10is.
Added to that RAW , and RAW+jpg or jpg only output and more zoom and wider angle .

Here is a link to it on QVC...there is the tv/video demonstration available on this on the link. But if you want it don't leave it because once they sell out that is it...[nb they are stating the added things which you are not getting from others is the sdhc card, the case and the carcharger.

Cool! The video presentation sales pitch worked its magic on me. That giraffe pic was impressive. If I lived in the UK I'd be on phone straight away! The HS10 is supposed to be in Tokyo stores for ~44,000 yen this weekend so 374GBP seems like a good value too.

We have actually ordered one this morning and will see how it goes [is supposed to be for me] but I have a feeling that Ian might be taking it out with him.
NB They have sold out of original stock but they are taking advanced orders for ones that will be delivered from 3rd May..nb they do not take money until it is sent.

I get very tempted after looking at that commercial
I cannot view it, possibly because their site wants more access to the PC than my IT boss wants to give it.
