Have you run an IS-3 past her? That's where my $$$ would go if I were
buying my wife such a thing. (Thankfully, my wafe was as tickled as
could be over a Stylus Epic <g>.) A friend has a Pentax PZ1P that I have
played with...it is a nice full featured wunderbrick for a decent price.
I suppose they're really all about the same in the consumer range, but I
also believe the IS-3 really does offer the best bang for the buck. HTH
and have fun in the big city!
