The main drawback for me is the quality of the lcd. It has a low resolution, which makes it hard to focus, especially in bright light. Advantages are its many settings (the customizable selftimer being one i frequently use), which can even be extended to shooting RAW and motion detect using the chdk software, and the fact it uses AA batteries (so it's easy to pick up some spare ones).Using <a href="http://www.digiscooppix.nl/album_page.php?pic_id=11917&recent=1" target="_blank">this link </a> you can see one of the pics i recently shot with it (in combination with an optolyth telescope).Hope this helps,Paul</blockquote>
