I have a super zoom camera....great for nature and candid shots, and also for regular stuff.
I have the first Sony zoom...with motion stabilization and other features. Since back then in 2006 they have improved them further and I want the new 20x zoom now.
Look in my album to see what it does. It even takes pics in the dark. I did that once for a toad that we found sitting in our cats water container at 4am once.
The new super zoom Sony is expensive but it does so many things... it is an automatic like mine, but converts to manual for SLR type functions. I wouldn't have any other type given our needs for pictures. It took me 3 months to choose a camera. Consumer Reports often reviews digital cameras and is a good resource. Also Steve's digicam pages are good.

It was after reading Steve's page on the Sony that I decided on it over Canon and Kodak.
