Me ? .... I'm still looking for a new ZLR with a good LCD...

E-20, great lens, TTL viewing + live LCD preview, excellent build
quality, same size sensor as the current 8mp crop - but lower noise
due to fewer pixels, loads about at good prices - still knocks the
pants off the 'toy' cameras like the Z series, Dimages, etc.



3 years old and three times the weight of anything I'd want to carry!



Well, yes, Plastic can be Fantastic, and is the industry's material of
choice for their toy cameras.

If, however, you prefer a solid chunk of optically precise
electro-mechanical engineering, it just has to be encased in metal.

Sorry to hear of your incapacity, perhaps you could use some sort of small
trolley to allow you to move a real camera from place to place? - is it your
wrists?....

Can
you still buy SmartMedia cards?


Dunno - but since the E-20 takes Compct Flash/Microdrive, why lose any sleep
over the question
