Since somebody was so kind as to remove my in-need-of-tune-up IS-1 from my
possession, I am now looking for a replacement.  The IS-3 has always got my
attention and I was wondering what feedback I can get from you IS-3 users
out there.

I really like the G40/IS-x combination and I would like to stay with it
just a wee bit longer.

Specific questions:
Low light focus... How good, how fast?
Zoom lens... How good, any further comments on lens?
Extra Electronic features... Does it have date stamp?
What other features not found in IS-1?
Viewfinder... Any changes from IS-1?
General comments...What likes/dislikes?

Gotta love "replacement value" insurance.  The adjuster wasn't too pleased
though.  When I showed him my OM camera bag, he whimpered.  When I asked
him about how he would "adjust" for my 15,000 slides he almost passed out.
I will be talking with my insurance agent today about that one.

Is there any other IS camera that is an upgrade to the IS-1 that I
absolutely must have?
