Mike,

That sounds about right. I have looked at soe newer cameras but for the price and what I do I can't convince myself to buy one. I already have about $8,000 dollars in lens and Nikon 35 MM cameras stored back in their boxes. My main wish is that I had a longet optical zoom lens. Also they have changed the memory cards so my oldones won't work in a newer camera. Buy something and two mnths later they upgrade and nothing from the new 0ne will work with stuff from the older one and vis a versa. I alsolooked at two new ones that only used rechargable batteies and I have quit even using them as I don't like the results I have had. I bought two chargers and two sets of batteries after the first ones didn't work. I could charge the batteries, take maybe a dozen pictures, go back the next day and they were dead. In stead of going through the send them back routine I bought a more expensive charger and batteries right from the company and have had the same results. But with the non chargable batteries I can take around 100 pictures, even using the flash on most of them. Don't understand the chargeable battery thing, but sure don't want to pay a big price for a camera that only uses them and then have this again.

Ron
