The good bit is that it has been a quite weekend on-call (So far - touch wood)
Ah well, back to work tommorow - Must remember to book a hire car for Thursday for a training course in Maidenhead (Well you didn't expect me to put in a five day week did you?)
After re-discovering the convience of the compact form factor in Digital Cameras on Saturday, I am considering getting a new one myself. Amy's is easy to carry about, but the quality is rubbish and it has no zoom - not to mention a menu structure that makes deleting too easy Grrrrrr! I have seen a couple of favourable reviews of the Olympus C750 - a 4 Megapixel camera with a 10, yes 10!, times optical zoom
Here's an example of just what that means (Using two pictures borrowed from the above review)...

The red square is the area covered by this shot at full telephoto:
And to give a better idea of how close that is, this is a
small segment of the telephoto picture at 100% scale:
I shall give that some more thought over the coming weeks... There may be a Fuji 6900 Zoom going on e-bay before too long. Talking of which, less that 24 hours till the end of the auction for the ipod... bidding at £240 at the moment. Lets see how that goes.
