    How did you guess???:heehee: Actually, Pentax and Ricoh have brought out some interesting cameras in different ranges just recently and are well worth looking at. I'll probably invest in a K3 next year, although I :wub2: my K5, as the price has dropped over time from £12oo to £705.

    I think Nikon & Canon now produce pancake lenses, but probably not bothering buying to fit on their stonking great sized camera bodies.

    Scrungee.... to make a point, bearing in mind a woman's hand is usually smaller than a man's.
    I'll grant you the fact that they wouldn't fit into a trouser pocket and that's because of the attached lens, but they will go into a coat pocket. Both camera's are almost equal in size and not as big as you say.

        Sorry NG, it's still my favourite camera of the two so I won't be parting with it. :)
