I am giving this a try...

After monitoring and researching for almost 6 months, I finally pick it up this week to give it a try for the up coming trip.

Size is not too small so I can have a very good grip on it. Yet, it can still pass as a P&S for places who doesn't welcome DSLR. The 20mm f/1.7 lens is the bomb. I can shoot as close as about 6 inches. Control is not that difficult to use.

Here is a quick shot at my office with no flash at ISO100 & f/1.8. This is a RAW shot with very minimum PP using Bibble Pro 5.1. Minor exposure adjustment and lens correction only.

I think it might be time to retire my 5 years old Coolpix.

The best thing I see out of this post is that you are another Bibble user!!!

Seriously though, good luck with your new purchase! I do not believe I have have seen anyone else with one of them on here.

I am still using the trial version of Bibble right now. I do like the control and most likely I will buy it.

This camera is totally new to me. I never even heard of it until some one suggested me to look into it. Price was fairly high when it came out. It took me a while to wait out on the pricing. It has most of the DSLR functionality. The manual focus feels a little weird and the camera itself has no image stabilizer. Auto focus take a little to get use to. Otherwise, it function just like a DSLR. The Live MOS sensor is so sensitive, I plan not to use the built-in flash at all. The size of the camera is what sold me.
