The new Nikon D70s and Nikkor AF-S DX f/3.5-f4.5/18-70mm G IF-ED Zoom

Pros Very fast, solid build quality, excellent image quality, and very good battery life

Cons Not much cheaper than a DSLR; lacks optical viewfinder, hot shoe; uses a battery pack
Recommended it? Yes

I finally broke down and bought a DSLR to replace my older superzoom point-and-shoot (P&S) camera. I originally considered a Canon DSLR, since the entry model camera was pretty cheap over the holidays (about $500), but after looking at the different cameras and options, I settled on this Panasonic...
