Hi Rand
I take it that you are aware of Hans' iS page at the e-sif site? Otherwise the
address is http://www.veluwen.demon.nl/om-sif/is-series/is-series.htm
Anyway, this is THE place to go for any possible info on the iS cameras. And
btw,
it's not a typo - it's actually spelled with a small"i". It was only after some
contact with Hans that I came to realize that this was the correct spelling, and
AFAIK he's still the only one on the net who refers to this camera system...,
sorry, camera SERIES ;-), with a small "i".
As far as reviews on those models mentioned there used to be a review of iS-10 /
iS-100 at http://www.ee.nus.sg/~zhu/photo/compact/Olympus_IS-100_r.html , but
unfortunately I've been unable to open this site for some time.

however have reviews of most of the iS models. Check out
http://www.photographyreview.com/reviews/35mm_cameras/
The original iS-10 model appears to have had some deficiencies as far as quality
is concerned, so for your sake I hope it's the later iS-10s or iS-20 model that
you've acquired. Good luck with your "new" camera Rand!

Do not walk while looking through the viewfinder of your camera
(you could get a real closeup view of the bottom of the Grand Canyon).
