Asa, I appreciate your reply and links. The comparison feature beats shopping Amazon or box store websites. Very cool and it doesn't hurt that I'm not in a huge hurry but I do want a better camera by July. Daylily season 'round here. And pretty much everything else that I enjoy most.
The AA thing, I have a dozen and AC/DC chargers. Not a must as much as a convenience. 3600 came up on a web store search but I obviously skipped a step or clicked a related ad.
The DP review site is bookmarked and certainly will be helpful in making a choice.
I've got a buddy that just dropped 3k on a camera. Not a photographer but he aspires to be. Same guy bought a high end famous electric guitar to play a video game with no formal guitar lessons.
Cheers to good credit!
I'll die broken, not broke.
