,,, for years and years I got a great run out of an Olympus OM-10. I bought a telphoto lens in Hong Kong and various filters and lenses all over the world. Now a Sony Handicam takes care of my wife's movie producer ambitions and I use it for still shots.
A friend of mind swears by his Olympus OM-10.
Digital cameras are great but unless you pay a lot for a good lens they can sometimes be a bit fuzzy.
My number one camera is now 6 years old but has a brilliant lens the cheaper new camera is great for everyday shots but the Sony which I believe has a Carl Zeiss lens is the best here is a photo taken with both.
