The options that it has is insane, it holds 3 different types of memory cards at once,and you can save on all 3 at once......................I had a C2020 and it was bulletproof so I stick with Olympus............for some stupid reason the optical zoom was the one feature that I didn't even look at, even though I use it alot [img]graemlins/banghead.gif[/img]
The quality of the pictures is amazing.....................the adjustments you can do with it are amazing................having menus that I can change and have just for specific things is cool......................I agree $1700 is alot, that is why I only paid $400 US [img]smile.gif[/img]
PLUS right after I bought it I was still working at FS and there was a load in error on pricing in the computer for the Sandisk 512 Compact Flash cards..................I ended up paying $13 after tax for each one, I bought 3 of them (only had one day before they discovered the load in error)

Try Abe's of Maine in Brooklyn NY
Otherwise, find the camera you want on Steve's Digicam or DPReview and go to the bottom of the screen. Lots of deals to be had there
I bought my Lumix camera from Abe's of Maine. His price was better than eBay pricing.
