robb, those dust particles could you could settle with a blower or careful swabbing of the mirror and glass.

blow / wipe wherever that's needed.

what i posted is what i would do.

congratulate what la? still haven't bought.

now, do you need those additional megapixels?

if not, i think the A300 is a better choice. and if you don't need Flip LCD, then go A200 la.

remember that the lower you go, you get more $$$ spare for other accessories.

yes miss out that one. A200 no liveview. for me, I will go for the A300 la.

you know what is donut, you know what is bokeh. combine those 2 and you get? really.
