: Exactly. Roland, we have heard your opinion on this many, many, many times. Please stop stirring up trouble. "ZLR" is not to be taken literally, and the regs in this group accept that. Consider it a nickname, and please leave it at that. Hmmm ... maybe I was unclear. My point ws not that you should stop posting here. You can do whatever you like of course. My point was that you should stop and defend the name when someone comes here and is surprised over it. And absolutely not attack the poor guy (or doll). My advice is that if someone says that the name is wrong, you simply say - we know - but we don't care. Because it is wrong - and defending the name is just going to get you inte long and fruitless threads. If I (for some resaon) gets involved in a similar discussion in the future I shall try to be more precise what I mean. BTW - I think I have written 3 replies this time - all trying to tell someone to stop bugging someone else that asks about the name. I don't really think it is fair of you to say that I am "stirring up trouble". /Roland |

"Larry" wrote in message My advice is that if someone Roland, we GET YOUR POINT.. We got it the FIRST time, and the second and the THIRD.. We UNDERSTAND you. Your COMPLAINT is REGISTERED with the Registry of "Things Nobody Gives A **** About" The group can be named "rec.photo.cameras.you.pull.out your ear" for all any of us care. WE know what WE come here to discuss, and USUALLY it isnt the name of the group. Please dont missunderstand me.. I dont dislike or disrespect you. You have made many contributary posts to the news groups, but this CONSTANT "****ing and Moaning" about the name of this group is getting REALLY tedious. The name of the group dosen't decide what gets discussed here, THE CHARTER DOES. -- Larry Lynch Mystic, Ct. Well said Larry. Would be really nice to see cameras and camera things getting discussed here. Unfortunatelly I've just returned my Nikon CP8800 so I guess I don't qualify any longer :~(( Leo |

I'm getting ready to go buy an 8800 and the SB-800 early next week, now that the big camera show is over and nothing came out to replace it. I assume its you problem with high shutter speeds ? ... Thanks. -- ATM, aka Jerry |

Thanks. -- ATM, aka Jerry Hi again Jerry, Yes the high shutter speed problem is it. I would miss out on too much of the challenging type of photography I enjoy. The camera specs provide for it to take a properly exposed photo at high speeds but it simply won't do it. It appears to be a problem common to all CP8800s so although Nikon wouldn't admit to that, they did take the camera back rather than replace it. It wasn't an easy decision for me, because apart from that it is a fabulous camera. IMHO none of the other 8Mp digicams come close to the 8800 so I'm looking at a D70. BTW the audio is out of sync with the video too but I knew that before I bought it. Unless you wish to capture pics at very high shutter speeds I'm sure you'll enjoy the 8800. Regards. Leo |

"Ken" wrote in : "J.S.Pitanga" wrote in message news I own a Panasonic DMC FZ-20 5mp 12x zoom digital ZLR camera and because of that I can post to this group and talk about it as much as I like. I really enjoy using this type of ZLR camera. It's the best in its class. What type of ZLR camera do you own? Personally I own a Canon G2. I also own a computer and have a news account. And I can post in any group I wish. As long I stay within the charter of the group I am also more than welcome to do so. The meaning of the acronym ZLR is within the charter of this group with a broad margin as this group is called ZLR. The fact that the charter for this group discribes cameras that shall really not be called ZLR is a valid topic. The making of this group was a mistake as it is spreading misinformation. I understand that you that post here need a group to discuss your somewhat more advanced compact digital cameras. But I don't understand why you insist that your cameras are called ZLR. They are mostly EVF and sometimes only normal digital cameras with more zoom. /Roland I'm thinking about the KM A200. Not shure yet I like the 28-200 mm (not so many do have such a lens) Rather nice video (for a photo camera !) 8 megapixels RAW Not too heavy camera an rather small Manual zoom But I've been made a little bit afraid af all the postings on the several FORUM about "dull" images. Anyone can help me out ?? |

Anyone can help me out ?? You might be best to try one out for yourself. I tried the KM A2 and rejected it for various reasons, but not "dull" images. The manual zoom was nice, as was the resolution of the viewfinder (EVF). Cheers, David |
