[QUOTE="Forcreeks, post: 793034, member: 1061"] Really nice Bald Eagle shot Sletson. The branches aren't your fault obviously and you still got the bird sharp. This is good scoping. Neil, thanks for the Sony W100 review. I was just noticing it at our Costco store today.. US $310, in the silver. Steves_Digicams says it comes in black also. That would be nice for birding. I came here next promptly to see discussion for this camera. I'm seriously considering getting one. Would be nice if more cameras came with remote shutter as well as 2 sec. self-timer. I disagree that your four ISO shots are worse noise than the F30 (which I'm currently using exclusively). All four of your shots look very nice re. noise. The Black BG on the ISO1250 looks really good! You're so right about the final 3 being great feature. They should all incorporate this. You can capture both lightening bolts and a hummingbird's tongue with this. I believe it takes up to 40 or 41 frames (from memory) and saves final 3. It's sometimes frustrating when you don't get the desired moment and it still saves 3 useles frames, right? Wish they'd let you quickly depress the release and have screen say "delete last 3?". I also dislike having to reset continuous 3 frame modes every time I power up. There's no "my settings" mode you know. Well, you see I need the perfect camera! I may get that W100. [/QUOTE]
