My favo(u)rite is from Anand Arasu from Perth, Australia - "God's
camera." Though Ivars first article makes me wonder if he'll ever get

f2 for $90 and a 21 f3.5 for $80?!
My experience with the IS-10 has been excellent. By coincidence, I
just took some pix of it yesterday so it can be eb@yed as part of my
personal 'right-sizing' project. Waaah! But one must be practical .
