Actually, as I hesitantly typed those words I thought about you and a couple of others who are vocal proponents of the advanced fixed lens cameras.

In all honesty, I don't think one is "better" than the other. They each offer different benefits. If I didn't have a DLSR, I would certainly have a fixed lens digital.

There are certainly times I wish for a smaller, lighter rig, an LCD preview screen, or the increased DOF you get with most fixed lenses. But when I had those things, there were times I wished for the flexibility of an SLR. I guess people like me are never happy.

What I really want is both, and then someone to carry them for me in the field!
