Thanks Mary Ann & Patty.. I've heard a lot of praise for the Lumix series, but when I was checking out reviews on Amazon, there were a number of people who said they didn't hold up and needed to be replaced after a few years. Another problem was black spotting on the pictures after time. Have either of you had problems? I tend to take care of things and keep them for a long time. I hate replacing things after a couple/few years. My boyfriend brought his Nikon Coolpix home for me to play with and see how I like it. It is much bigger than my point and shoot, so it will be interesting to see how it handles.
Jo Ann, I liked your comment about getting shots in tight places... Certainly something to consider.
