Yet another - TOP camera of the year.

As Mike discusses at some length in his award post, the whole business is
silly. Then he goes ahead and makes an award. :-)

Exactly. It has more of the things I value and fewer of those that I don't
like/want than anything else out there at the

As usual, mine is on top of the pile of paper on top of my scanner, immediately

more of those I've taken. But then, I can enjoy more than one thing.)
