Finally - after 4 years of searching - I bought an Uzi "replacement". Well, I really shouldn't say
"replacement" because the beloved Uzi was in a class of her own. Nothing will ever be able to replace what she once was to me.
However, a few days ago, I did purchase another super zoom: the just released, Panasonic DMC-FZ35. Now, I have a camera once again for those times when I don't want to fuss with my DLSR's.
Truthfully, I probably would still be using my old Uzi if she only had a few more mega pixels. I kept 2 of my old Uzi's & they work just as good as ever.
