I got pulled up by a friend for talking about the 'fanning clouds', she says they are diffused airplane contrails, I dunno.

My camera hates kids, and animals, unless you have enough light to get a decent shutter speed, so many pics turn out as blurfests. The new DSLRs have ISOs that run up to like 16000, I don't know if all of these come out noisy as hell.

This would have been nice but for the lack of sharpness:

Why that model Andrew? It's a fantasic camera, but have a look at this one....

It will make your SLR obsolete.

Looks like a cracking compact camera Tom. 

I'm looking around for camera, and that one is along the lines of what I'm after.

Yes, almost a doozy.

Autofocus? Water plays havoc with it.

It's the dogs danglies of a camera Kin, and hardly any bigger than the FZ3.

....Mind you, have you seen that new Cannon with the 14 x optical zoom and the to-die-for image stabilisation?

Looking through the alternatives now!  It's all confusing for a noob like me, but fortunately I have a professional photographer for a girlfriend and she's trying to advise me. But I'm a bit slow... apertures, shutter speeds, thingywhatsits, etc.

It took me a month, youtube is your friend, plenty of taking loads of different shots in different settings. Still learning obv, but it was a dazzling mystery to me at the start also.
There are a ton of features in a modern DSLR, but plenty of them are just manipulating the RAW image in a way you could do on a PC afterwards with software anyway.
I have a Canon, the image stabilization is in the lens, gg £££ for new lenses. You could always buy an adaptor and try using old lenses lol.
Just spent £25 on sensor cleaning materials, be careful where you swap lenses...

My ducklings were autofocussed yeah, single point on the leading duckling,and  ISO 200 I think, the shutter speed was just a little too low for their speed. My camera has 2 additional autofocus modes for moving objects, where it keeps trying for a new focus lock just before the shot.

I have the TZ10 -- my prev camera was a Nikon D80 SLR - this is brilliant in comparison...
