i have a nikon coolpix p90 point and shoot -- it'll take great pix of birds 50 feet away at the back of the yard from my kitchen window and cool close ups of my quilt blox and great sunset pix of the mountain across the bay out of my front window. great battery, easy to download. steady hand focus with 24 power opt zoom plus whatever it's call digital zoom, in camera editing. there's a p100 now ..... drooling over that
